George Clooney made more money last year than any actor across a 12-month period -- thanks in part to the sale of the tequila company he co-founded.

乔治·克鲁尼是过去12个月里赚钱最多的演员，他因将自己参与创始的一家龙舌兰酒公司售出而赚得盆满钵满。

Forbes estimates the 57-year-old star made $239 million in pretax earnings in the year beginning June1, 2017.

《福布斯》估计，这位57岁的明星在2017年6月1日起的一年时间里，税前收入达2.39亿美元。

Kylie Jenner, the youngest of the Kardashian sisters, is placed third in the list after founding a cosmetics empire.

卡戴珊姐妹中最年轻的成员凯莉·詹娜排名第三，这得益于她打造的化妆品王国。

U2乐队、酷玩乐队、艾德·希兰，以及足坛巨星里奥·梅西和克里斯蒂亚诺·罗纳尔多也进入了榜单前十。
