Kim Soo Hyun Gets Support From Fans Amid Dating Scandal? Actor Rules 'Star Power' List
Last Updated: Recently, Kim So Hyun's Chinese fan club, which has over one million members, also took to the streets in Seoul to extend their support for the actor. South Korean star Kim Soo Hyun has been making headlines for a long time now. Alas, for all the wrong reasons. He has been accused of dating the late actress Kim Sae Ron when she was just a minor. Amid all this, it has now been reported that Kim Soo Hyun has reportedly climbed to the top 3 in the star power list despite the ongoing controversy. Reportedly, Kim Soo Hyun has been able to land in the top three spot on a popular fan-voting platform, South Korea's Star Ranking. He has also surpassed the country's favourite producer, singer, and philanthropist, Kim Nam Gil. If a report by Naver News is to be believed, Soo Hyun was at the bottom of the chart until last week. However, it saw a sudden surge in voter support in the 110th round of the weekly male actor poll. Another report by AllKpop claims that during the 109th round, Kim Nam Gil was in third place on the list, whereas Kim Soo Hyun was on number seven. However, in the next round, Soo Hyun received a total of 11546 votes. With this, he not only dethroned Kim Nam Gil but also joined Lee Jun Ho and Byun Woo Seok as the third most popular on the Star Power list. Recently, Kim So Hyun's Chinese fan club, which has over one million members, also took to the streets in Seoul to extend their support for the actor. The fans walked across the streets with a massive LED truck display, driving around with messages of hope and solidarity. Around 25 such LED trucks were deployed in Seoul, with the slogan, which read, 'Truth Will Prevail." Some trucks were also parked outside Disney Korea's office to express disappointment after the shoot of Soo Hyun's next show, Knock Off, was halted. Kim Soo Hyun has been accused of dating the late actress Kim Sae Ron when she was just a minor. So far, the latter's family has made several allegations against Soo Hyun. However, Kim Soo Hyun recently held a press conference and addressed allegations. He said, 'I'll address the biggest concern—I did not date the deceased when she was a minor. We dated five years ago for about a year, long before Queen of Tears aired." First Published:

Meet the world's richest comedian: Iconic TV show success propels him past Tom Cruise and Dwayne Johnson
The title of the world's wealthiest comedian belongs to a billionaire whose fortune eclipses that of numerous prominent Hollywood figures, including Tom Cruise, Dwayne Johnson, George Clooney, Adam Sandler, Robert De Niro, and even India's own Shah Rukh Khan. That individual is none other than Jerry Seinfeld. Seinfeld's Star Power and wealth creation Jerry Seinfeld achieved widespread fame as the co-creator and leading man of the iconic 1990s sitcom 'Seinfeld.' This success has not only made him the richest comedian but also secured him a spot on the Forbes list as the sole representative from the comedy world. According to Forbes, Seinfeld's net worth stands at a remarkable $1.1 billion, surpassing that of many of the West's most celebrated actors. The source of Seinfeld's massive earning The Forbes magazine also highlights that Seinfeld's "fortune comes from his share of the syndication revenue the show generates, as well as income from touring, films and other projects." Reports indicate that the star's share of his earnings originate from the enduring popularity of his sitcom. The magazine states that Seinfeld and the co-creator Larry David earn nearly 15% of the show's syndication revenue, inclusive of the sales to local TV and streaming platforms. Beyond "Seinfeld" In addition to his sitcom dominance, Seinfeld has appeared in several movies, documentaries, and even cameo roles. His animated film "Bee Movie" was a hit, while his recent venture, "Unfrosted," did not resonate as strongly with audiences. Nevertheless, the continuous revenue stream from his beloved sitcom firmly maintains his billionaire status, with reported earnings exceeding $700 million from the show itself. His other notable projects include Netflix comedy specials and the acclaimed interview series "Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee." Seinfeld's Net Worth Compared to Other Stars: Seinfeld's substantial net worth keeps him ahead of global icons like Shah Rukh Khan ($770 million), Tom Cruise ($600 million), George Clooney ($239 million), Adam Sandler ($800 million), Dwayne Johnson ($400 million), Robert De Niro ($500 million), and Johnny Depp ($100 million).

Tom Cruise Says He and Brad Pitt Would ‘Go Drive Go-Karts All Night' During Breaks From ‘Interview with the Vampire': ‘He's a Very Good Driver'
Tom Cruise says he and Brad Pitt raced go-karts to unwind after long days of filming 'Interview with the Vampire.' Cruise, who starred as Lestat opposite Pitt's Louis in Neil Jordan's 1994 film, took part in Paramount Pictures' presentation at CinemaCon on Thursday, where he expressed excitement about Pitt's upcoming film 'F1.' 'Brad's got a new movie with Jerry Bruckheimer and Joe Kosinski. I can't wait to see that this summer. It'll be awesome,' Cruise said, according to CinemaBlend. 'It's great to see Brad driving,' He added. 'He's very good.'

Cruise told the CinemaCon crowd he's got firsthand experience with Pitt's driving ability, sharing an anecdote from the set of 'Interview with the Vampire.' 'He's a very good driver,' Cruise said. 'Believe me, I've raced against him. When we were doing 'Interview with the Vampire,' we'd go and race go-karts. We'd literally finish and go drive go-karts all night.' Though Cruise seems to remember the filming of 'Interview with the Vampire' fondly, Pitt has previously bemoaned the shoot, telling Entertainment Weekly in 2011 that the 'miserable' shoot felt like 'six months in the fucking dark.' While Louis and Lestat don't get behind the wheel of go-karts in 'Interview with the Vampire,' Jordan's film (based on Anne Rice's 1979 novel) does end with Cruise's centuries-old vampire taking a joyride in a convertible after making a miraculous return from un-death.
