— -- The results are in.
With the wildly popular "Hunger Games" franchise and a reportedly generous advance for her role in the upcoming film "Passengers," Jennifer Lawrence has earned herself the title of the world's highest paid actress.
Thanks mostly to "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay -- Part 2," the actress pulled in an impressive $46 million over 12 months. Though it's not the same $52 million she raked in last year, Lawrence still managed to top Forbes' list for the second year in a row.
