She might be lying, I suppose, but I can believe it. They've since gotten a huge salary bump, but the 30K figure has been disputed; some say it's 10K.
The Jersey cast are still locked into a 3-year contract for $3,333 per episode. |
Well color me corrected. I think. I don't buy for a second that the housewives would go through all that aggravation and pressure for less than $1000 per episode. And at the time Bethenny actually needed a full time income. And I have a really hard time believing that the RHONJ are only getting $3333 per episode too! If Andy Cohen convinced these broads to work for peanuts to be on cable TV's top rated programs, he is an evil genius.
Speaking of Bethenny, has anyone actually tasted or seen one those Skinny Girl Margaritas. She got paid $120 million for it? Really?
