Kaley Cuoco-Sweeting and Sofia Vergara have been named the world's highest paid TV actresses in a new Forbes list.
The Big Bang Theory and Modern Family stars have snagged an estimated US$28.5 million (NZ$44.63 million) apiece between 1 June, 2014, and 1 June, 2015, according to the money magazine.
Vergara has topped the list for the past four years and now Cuoco-Sweeting joins her after reportedly negotiating a $1 million-per-episode deal last year.
