"Star power" in Hollywood means more than who turns the most heads at the Viper Room. Per the Hollywood Reporter, there's a whole slew of women who "overdelivered" in Tinseltown in 2023, "setting box office records, filling arenas, and putting Hollywood back to work" after the writers and actors strikes. Here, the publication's top 10 on this versatile list of actors, singers, and business executives (Beyonce just missed, coming in at No. 11):
- Pamela Abdy (CEO, Warner Bros. Motion Picture Group)
