Ok it’s no number one, or even top ten spot, but Jennifer Aniston should feel proud after being declared the 21st most powerful person in this year’s Forbes Celebrity 100 list.

The list which charts the most powerful people in the entertainment business this year placed the Friends and Horrible Bosses star at 21 whilst Lady Gaga claimed the title from last year’s winner Oprah Winfrey who now sits at second place.

Earlier this week Gaga, who’s album ‘Born This Way’ is released next week and has already whipped has her fanbase of ‘monsters’ into a frenzy, tipped the 10 million follower mark on Twitter and has over 32 million on Facebook.

But back to Jenny - the only other actress higher on the list was Angelina Jolie at number 11 (we’re not bothering to include Taylor Swift at number 7 who tried playing the thespian in Valentine’s Day). Well done Jen!

Elsewhere, recent social media adopter and (ex) Two and a Half Men star Charlie Sheen placed at a respectable 28 placing just ahead of Beyonce Knowles.

Let’s take a look at where some of the other funny men and women in showbiz ended up:
