Just under the two intertwined actresses was Meryl Streep, who earned $24 million thanks largely to the box office power of "Mamma Mia," and Sarah Jessica Parker, who earned $23 million on the strength of the big screen debut of "Sex and the City."
In fifth place was Cameron Diaz, who earned $20 million.
