Celeb Appearances Cost a Pretty Penny, Part II

SavvySugar — Tue, 08 Jan 2008 14:03:00 -0800

We already know that some celebs aren't making quite as much as they used to, but others are still making serious bank. Mariah Carey has tripled her stock since 2006 from $1 million per private appearance to $3 million! Pamela Anderson has learned that time is money, increasing her fee from $75,000 to $250,000. Maybe butterflies and boobs just never get old?! I'm not sure how much Pam charged for hosting the NYE party at Pure, but she's not the only blonde who's paid to party. Even Golden Girl Rue McClanahan (man-hungry Blanche) earns anywhere from $25,000 to $35,000 to make an appearance.

It's really none of my business how millionaires choose to spend their cash, and I can't help but think if I were one of them, I'd be tempted to rent, say, Brad Pitt. Maybe there's even a discount if you don't want them to actually do any talking? Kidding, kidding. How do you you feel about the "rent-a-celebrity" business? Do you think it's a waste of money that could go to other causes, or is there a price you would pay to have your favorite celeb show up at your front door?

Madonna Is Number One Cash Queen

SavvySugar — Tue, 29 Jan 2008 15:27:38 -0800

Forbes, the maker of all lists that say cha-ching, just came out with its very first Cash Queens of Music list ranking female musicians earning major moolah. Madonna's blowout Confessions tour and biz savvy landed her the spot as number one Queen Bee. While Forbes is calling Madonna the Material Mom, she'll always be the Material Girl to me. These twenty divas earned a combined $420 million between 2006 and 2007 - not too shabby.
