By ANISaturday, May 9, 2009
LONDON - Hollywood actors Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are the most powerful celebrity couple on the planet, according to a new study.
The Hollywood’s star pair scored a perfect 30 on 30 on a test that used a formula to work out how much stronger they are together than they would be individually.
The A-listers pipped David and Victoria Bechkam, who scored 25 on the test, to land the crown, reports The Telegraph.
The formula measures factors such as current and future earning power, public profile, career to date and predicted time left on the centre stage as a celebrity couple.
The list has been compiled by heartburn and indigestion brand Gaviscon Double Action.
TV presenting pair Vernon Kay and Tess Daly hugged the bottom of the list after scoring two points out of 30.
Psychotherapist Paula Hall was commissioned to analyse the strengths and weaknesses of celebrity couples using a Power of Two formula to see how well they work as a power couple.
Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes reached a respectable 18.3 for their joint success as a Hollywood golden couple.
Others in this category include, rapper Jay-Z and partner Beyonce Knowles who have a Power of Two score of 17.5 and actors Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith who score 15.5.

1 Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie (30)
