Like we really needed to know this!

American Idol's harshest judge, Simon Cowell, has topped Forbes.com's highest earning men on primetime US television list after making - UGH - $75 million bucks. Hates it!

Donald Trump pulled in $50 mil while Ryan Seacrest did $38 mil. Rounding out the top five are Charlie Sheen ($21 million) and Steve Carell ($20 million).

Basically, everyone's earning too much! Who really needs THAT much money?

Meanwhile poor Lindsay Lo can't even get a job! How's she gonna pay for all her attorney fees?
