Top 10 actors on IMDb in 2011

International Movie Database's Top 10 Stars list this year:

1. Natalie Portman
2. Mila Kunis
3. Johnny Depp
4. Emma Stone
5. Chris Hemsworth
6. Olivia Wilde
7. Jennifer Lawrence
8. George Clooney
9. Ryan Gosling
10. Christian Bale

Why Portman? “You can see why,” says IMDb managing editor Keith Simanton. “She won a Best Actress Oscar for Black Swan, was in the news welcoming a son into the world in June, and appeared in three films (No Strings Attached, Your Highness and Thor).”

Depp, who has topped the annual rankings for six of the past seven years, fell to third. Sandwiched between him and Portman as runner-up is Mila Kunis. The Black Swan co-stars' one-two punch helped push the gender ratio of the list to 50% female — opposed to 2010 when women secured only three spots.

Bumped off the top 10 list this year were Leonardo DiCaprio, Brad Pitt, Robert Downey Jr., Gerard Butler, Megan Fox and Zoe Saldana.
