Justin's Bringing Charity Back

Justin Timberlake may brag about his ability to bring sexy back, but when it comes to his ability to attract big bucks to charitable causes, he's far more humble.

Because, get this: of all the famous names who donate time and money to philanthropy, Timberlake has just been named the most charitable celebrity.

ContactMusic.com reports that the former 'N Sync frontman beat out presumed philanthropic favorites such as Bono and Oprah to earn the mantle of top charitable celebrity earner.

Via his work for organizations such as the Shriners Hospital for Children, he makes an "annual impact" of $9 million. By contrast, Oprah raises about $4 million for her personal charity, Oprah's Angel Network, each year. Bono's annual impact on the ONE Foundation was estimated at $3.6 million, Pamela Anderson delivers a yearly $4.8 million to People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, and Madonna brings $5.5 million to the Raising Malawi charity.

Stars like Angelina Jolie, Rihanna, George Clooney, Salma Hayek and Shakira also made the top 10 list of celebrity givers.
