Emma Watson and Daniel Radcliffe stars of the Harry Potter franchise

Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson have entered the Guinness World Records book as the highest grossing lead actors of the decade.

Despite their tender years - Watson is 19, while Radcliffe celebrated3 his 20th birthday in July - the duo have outstripped4 the fortunes of their Hollywood rivals thanks to the success of the Harry Potter films.

The figures from the new edition of Guinness World Records is based on box office takings. The first six Harry Potter films have grossed $5.4 billion, and there are two more to come.

Radcliffe's films earn an average of $558 million, while Watson is ahead of $753.7 million as last year she also starred in The Tale of Despereaux, a children's animation5 in which she voiced a princess.

BBC show Strictly6 Come Dancing is the most successful reality television format7 in history, according to Guinness, as it has been sold to 38 countries.

Miley Cyrus is the highest earning child actor, pocketing an estimated $25 million last year for her films, television shows, records and concert tours.

The Dark Knight8, the Batman film starring the late Heath Ledger9, has no fewer than 10 separate entries in the book, including highest-grossing opening day.

Other new entries in the book are unlikely to occupy pride of place on the stars' CVs. Nicole Kidman is listed as the most overpaid actress in Hollywood, with a box office gross of only $1 for every $1 taken at the cinema.
