10. Courtney Cox
The former Friends star reprised her role as tabloid reporter Gayle Weathers this spring in Scream 4. But it’s her prime-time gig as star and executive producer of ABC’s Cougar Town that brings Cox the most attention — and dollars — with an estimated $275,000 per episode, that adds up to about $7 million per year. In late 2010 Cox split from husband of eleven years, Scream costar David Arquette.
