Forbes magazine just unveiled its list of the world's highest paid actresses spanning 12 months (from June 2014 to June 2015), and surprise, surprise - Jennifer Lawrence ranks number one!

25-year-old Jennifer Lawrence earned $52 million, which is mainly attributed to her signature role as Katniss Everdeen in the "Hunger Games" franchise, in addition to her "lucrative" deal with Dior.

Scarlett Johansson takes the second spot, who earned $35.5 million. Scarlett Johansson's earnings this year were mainly comprised of profits from her role as Black Widow on "Avengers: Age of Ultron" and for "Lucy."

Although Scarlett Johansson typically asks for $10 million per movie, the 30-year-old actress demanded a whopping $17.5 million for her upcoming thriller flick, "Ghost in the Shell."

Third on the list is Melissa McCarthy, whose breakthrough performance in "Bridesmaids" made her a household name.

Thanks to her roles in "Spy" and "Tammy," Melissa McCarthy earned $23 million. Melissa McCarthy also has a fashion line, called Melissa McCarthy Seven7.

The only non-American who made the list is Bingbing Fan, taking the fourth sport with $21 million in earnings. Bingbing Fan is more known for her role in "X-Men: Days of Future Past."

Bingbing Fan made the list thanks to her role in "The White-Haired Witch of Lunar Kingdom" and her endorsement deals with Chopard and L'Oreal.

Beloved "Friends" star Jennifer Aniston ranks fifth on the list, who earned $16.5 the past year. Although Justin Theroux's new wife remains low key nowadays, Aniston gained so much from her films, "Cake" and "Horrible Bosses 2."
