Rappers Jay-Z and 50 Cent made the cut on Forbes' list of Biggest Celebrity Paydays of 2007. Fiddy placed second due to the Vitamin Water deal that netted him $100 million, while Jay-Z ranked fourth for the $82 million banked when he sold Rocawear to Iconix Brand Group. The sale of the Oxygen cable network to NBC for $925 million in November made 10-percent owner Oprah Winfrey a lock at No. 6 on Forbes' list.
