By JTA Staff February 19, 2013 SIX DEGREES (NO BACON)/JEWISH CELEBRITY ROUNDUP NEW YORK (6NoBacon) --We pay a lot of money for Sacha Baron Cohen to make us feel uncomfortable. The Jewish London native is officially the highest paid British actor in America, according to Forbes.com, and even tops Brad Pitt and Tom Hanks in bringing in the dough.
