Forbes just released their annual list of the celebrity faces that sell the most magazine covers, and it's definitely a shake up from last year.

Sounds like shocking headlines played a major role in this year's list, so tell us — are you surprised by the top ten most valuable celebrity faces of 2008?

    I agree, Heidi? I would rather pick up a magazine with Lauren on the cover, in fact I always do!

    I think Owen is there because he attempted to commit suicide. But seriously, this list sucks. Full of talentless skanks like Heidi Montag, Jessica Simpson and Jamie Lynn and two children (where only one of four parents is actually also present on the list!)

    I agree Lola, there aren't many people on this list worth reading about.

    Shiloh and Suri are celebrities? This just sums up what is wrong about our culture.

    I'm a little depressed about this list. I think the only people who belong there are Angelina and Jennifer and of course, Heath RIP.
    Hope it improves next year.

    Heidi? I've always liked Owen and he has appeared in successful movies, but Heidi? And Nicole has made a life-transformation so I see that but Heidi?

    LolaSvelt it's not about talent. It's about selling magazines.

    Is it just me or does Suri look like she has a mullet?

    I think Heidi's mainly on there because she and Spencer always seem to worm their way onto covers somehow... not because people want to read about them.

    Nope.
    Crack sales are up too. Doesn't make it right or useful, but yet it's 'valuable'.

    You know, I really don't think Heidi is that bad of a person. It's Spencer for like 99% of it.

    I agree with Neural! What about Britney???
    And I would NEVER buy a magazine with Heidi's face on it! And I don't think I've ever bought a magazine with Jessica Simpson on the cover...

    Ok basically the first two are pretty obvious. Since this list is per year I can also understand Heath Ledger and Owen Wilson, but the rest shouldn't be on this list, especially the kids. I love Suri, I think she is precious but she is not a celeb, her weird father is and didn't even make the list.

    If this is true, I feel sorry for Suri and Shiloh. It's pretty sad if they are in the top ten. Jessica is way over exposed and so is Heidi. Tragedies always brings a lot of coverage. I would like to know which magazines they used, just tabloids or fashion and news.

    It is a bit disturbing to see children on the list - Suri and Shiloh are both adorable, but they didn't choose to become public figures the way that their parents did. And I don't get Heidi at all. Maybe because she keeps giving Us Weekly "exclusives", but she is a prime example of someone who's famous for being famous.

    Not surprised because these have been the people that have been most talked about. I think it's sad that Heidi is among them and I certainly don't talk or care about her. And having the two kids on the list is a little disturbing...they are just child of stars.

    WTF Heidi Montag?!?!
    What the hell do people wanna read about her for?
    Shiloh and Suri aren't even celebrities; they just happen to have famous parents.
    I was a little surprised to see Jessica Simpson on there and not Brad Pitt, although I can't stand him either.

    Jen and Angelina, as well as Jamie Lynn, Heath, and Owen were expected to be there.

    I'm also surprised that Britney didn't make the list.

    Honestly, I'm sad that the reason Heath is on that list is because of his death. I'm still so shocked and sad by it.

    obviously, you haters love to read about how stupid Heidi is, no wonder she got on this list. I'm not surprised.

    I expected to see britney spears over owen and jessica.

    Two children here? I feel sorry about those two amazing cute babies, because they are not growing up like normal kids, but like toys who are on spotlight everyday. i really feel sorry about them ... this world is mad ...
