Life is good when you're Ashton Kutcher: In addition to dating Esquire's Sexiest Woman Alive, the Iowa-born hunk is the highest-paid actor on television, pulling in a staggering $24 million annually starring on Two And A Half Men.
Last year's winner was the man who Ashton replaced on the CBS comedy -- Charlie Sheen, who wore out his welcome telling off boss Chuck Lorre despite taking in $40 million a year.
The top five actors on the list include: House's Hugh Laurie ($18 million), Men of a Certain Age's Ray Romano ($18 million), 30 Rock's Alec Baldwin ($15 million) and NCIS's Mark Harmon ($15 million). The totals include rerun and syndication money, helping propel Romano (Everybody Loves Raymond) to third on the list.
Ashton, 34, is currently dating Mila Kunis; he's been estranged from actress Demi Moore for more than a year (though the couple still hasn't gotten officially divorced yet).
