The Short Answer

Why *shouldn't* they be compensated for the money they bring in? And the reason they bring in that much money is because we all love to be entertained.

Actors are also paid very well because they bring in a lot of money. And they also bring in a lot of money because we love to be entertained. That is just how the world works.
