      *On Ebony magazine’s list of the most influential blacks in America, the usual suspects – Sen. Barack Obama and Oprah Winfrey – both find themselves looking up toward top vote-getter Halle Berry.

      The Oscar winner was chosen for her eight-figure Hollywood paychecks, as well as her endeavors behind the camera, including the production of film and television projects. She’s currently producing "Mixed," a TV comedy about a mixed-race woman; and "Compositions In Black And White" with Alicia Keys.

      Berry tells Ebony: "... I feel really powerful at 40 because I've finally GOT IT, I have finally realized that I'm complete all by myself. I don't need a man."

      This year's list also includes "Grey's Anatomy" creator Shonda Rhimes, actor-director Tyler Perry and talk show host Tyra Banks. The annual Power 150 was launched in 1963 as "100+ Most Influential Black Americans."
