She was paid just under £2 million for the Chanel ad, which was directed by Baz Luhrmann.
As the ad is four minutes long, that works out at £492,573 per minute.

Cartier's Stefano Canturi for Nicole's necklace from Moulin Rouge in 2003

The Sun-Herald
Don't be fooled by the rocks. Cartier's latest recruit, Stefano Canturi, is still a boy from Bankstown.
In an amazing coup for the Sydney jeweller, Canturi has been appointed designer for the world's leading fine jewellery house.
He joins an elite number of top designers such as Marc Jacobs and John Galliano, who are creating the future styles for establishment labels.
In Paris to begin work for Cartier worldwide, Canturi said in a statement he was "thrilled and honoured" at the opportunity to design for the luxury brand.
Cartier chief executive Bernard Fornas said Canturi, 36, would join the French design house as an external designer.
This allows him to continue to use Sydney as his creative base and to retain his own signature brand, Canturi Jewels.
While Cartier has boasted a who's who of clients from Elizabeth Taylor to Marilyn Monroe, Canturi's intricate designs have also found fans among the rich and fabulous, including Nicole Kidman, Britney Spears and Oprah Winfrey, who wrote to say she never takes his O alphabet-design necklace off, "not even to shower".
His journey to this international stage has been something of a fairytale, with Hollywood playing a huge part in his success.
Just three years after leaving school to start a jeweller's apprenticeship, a 20-year-old Canturi began his solo quest for fame, with the support of his Italian family from the suburbs.
Brothers Michael and Franco soon after became his business partners, while sister Lucia took charge of Canturi's flagship store when it opened along the exclusive row of retailers in Castlereagh Street. But it was the starring role of his jewellery designs in Baz Luhrmann's Moulin Rouge two years ago that captured the world's attention.
The 134-carat diamond and white gold necklace he created for Kidman's character Satine put his designs up on the big screen and scored him a place in Guinness World Records and a Christie's New York valuation of more than $1 million.
His designs will sparkle next on screen in the Matrix sequels and on Melanie Griffith in The Night We Called It A Day (a film about Frank Sinatra's 1974 Australian visit).
