Reese is Hollywood's top-earning actress

American actress Reese Witherspoon has been named Hollywood's highest paid actress in Hollywood Reporter rich list.

The Legally Blonde star makes an estimated 15 to 20 million dollars for any film that she signs up for, reports Contactmusic. This has put the actress at the top of the new list, ahead of Cameron Diaz and Nicole Kidman.

The other actresses to make it to the top ten are Renee Zellweger, Halle Berry and Julia Roberts.

Meanwhile the actress officially ended her seven-year marriage with actor Ryan Phillippe on June 12. The couple finalized their divorce with court documents filed in Los Angeles. Reese had filed for a divorce in 2006, citing ‘irreconcilable differences’.

Reese's sex row with Vince

Reese Witherspoon is refusing to film a sex scene with Vince Vaughn.

The pair have reportedly been clashing constantly on the set of romantic comedy Four Christmases and now Reese is refusing to roll around naked with Vince.

An on-set source said, “Reese has an issue with the scripted love scene. It is meant to be a funny, American Pie-style romp, full of bumps and laughs, but Reese is such a prude, she thinks it’s just too much.”

Despite being an Oscar-winner and a more highly-paid Hollywood star, Reese is unlikely to win the argument as Vince is one of the film’s producers. The 37-year-old actor also oversaw much of the script writing, about a couple whose divorced parents do not get on, so they decide to celebrate Christmas separately with each of them.
