Jennifer Lopez has lost her position near the top of Hollywood's top-earning female celebrity list.

Following a much-publicised split from boyfriend Ben Affleck, unforgivable outings such as Maid in Manhattan, Jersey Girl and the blasted Gigli, Ms Lopez' pride is not the only thing that has taken a battering.

The unfortunate girl from the block now stands at only tenth in the high-earners' league, commanding a paltry 6 million per film.

Bridget Jones star Renee Zellweger is on the up, however. After the aforementioned Brit-chick-flick and award nominated turns in Cold Mountain and Chicago, she now draws a salary on a par with the Latin American.

Big grinner Julia Roberts continues to dominate the chart, demanding a whopping 10.3 million per outing these days, despite having written off most of this year after falling pregnant with twins.

Blonde beauty Cameron Diaz also held on to the second spot following her loveable turn as ogre princess Fiona in the break away hit of the summer, Shrek 2.

Nicole Kidman, Reese Witherspoon and Drew Barrymore all now command a healthy 8 million every time they get in front of the lens, according to the poll carried out by the Hollywood Reporter.
