Ugh! How much would I have to pay to never see The Situation on another TV again???
Check this horseshit out! Turns out these celeb bitches make MAD Benjamins for just standing around! Keep in mind that in addition to the list, the agent who quoted the numbers said that any celeb buyer should keep in mind that they'll most likely have to pay for what he called the Simple Four. That includes the flight, ground transportation, hotel and food. Oh and some won't fly commercial (whatever the fuck that means) so you'd have to shell out for a private jet...the greed is palpable...
BTW Most appearances are based on an approx. 2 hour appearance and/or gig.
In the music world you can score talented transvestite Lady Gaga for $2 million, Metallica for a cool $1.5 million, Pitbull for $300K and Ne-Yo for $200K.
You and your bonehead buddies can mentally jerk off to some random Playboy models who run about $1K - $1.5K or get Teresa Giudice to flip a table for $15K. The Jersey Shore cast can buy all the booze and pickles they want with their appearance earnings - Deena Nicole nabs $8K for merping on everyone, Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino gets paid $25K to show off his rehabbed abs and though I'm not totally sure about Snook's, I know she got about $32K for speaking at prestigious Rutgers University...cha-ching! Hell, even The Unit makes $5K! The most famous Armenian porn star in the world, Kim Kardashian, is the one on top in the reality category though > Ho makes $125K an appearance!!! Someone get me my video camera and a youtube account!
Sports stars also command some serious money for making an appearance. To see Tim Tebow tebowing in person it will cost you $50K - $65K, Michael Jordan is the highest at approx $2 million and former Celtic Larry Bird asks for $75K.
AND the Warlock Vatican Assassin himself, Charlie Sheen, will bomb you with his torpedo of truth for $250K (and possibly throw up in your shitter) but he's one of the ones who requires a private jet so
There you have it. Looks like stars make some sa-weet bank from just showin' up places. Gah!
In my estimation, anyone who gets off on hiring a celeb just so they can parade them around in front of a bunch of local gawkers like an inbred show dog needs to find some better shit to spend their money on.

Just FYI - the "Sitch" only made 5K when he made an appearance in St. Catharines, ON, Canada a few months ago. He's not making 25K that's for sure. My husband was his personal "bodyguard" for his visit.
ReplyDeleteThank you for commenting with info. The post is a little old and numbers were taken from a Daily Mail article at that time. I imagined $ has dropped since then but that's a lot! JS is getting stale. Cheers.
