Who's the one person capable of knocking Oprah Winfrey out of Forbes' top spot on the list of the world's most powerful celebs?

Angelina Jolie.

Winfrey, who topped the list last year, was dethroned and moved to the No. 2 spot on the annual Forbes list, which came out yesterday.

"Though viewership for the self-made billionaire's flagship chat fest, The Oprah Winfrey Show, continues to erode, her earning power remains resilient," the list said.

Oprah proves the theory that people become less popular when they endorse fascists.

Being fat and arrogant sooner or later begin to wear on peoples nerves plus she is on the down side of the arc and gaining speed.

Take the hint, retire and enjoy the fruits of your labor before you die. Have a great life with whomever is your current interest.

She’s into working out and I believe she’s a conservative, not 100% sure, but that’s my impression.
