AmoreMagazine.com's Kate Casey: Secrets Behind Reality Star Appearance Fees

One of the unspoken ways celebrities get extra cash is to make personal appearances. This is the bread and butter of the reality show circuit. Brandi Glanville, for example, admitted on Howard Stern yesterday that the first season of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills she made $18,000 and this last season she made almost $140,000. Her castmates, however, made $250,000 each. This is why they make every effort to shill side projects like hair glue, extensions, eyelashes, plastic satchels, and wine. In addition night clubs will pay them a fee to show up, sit in a booth, make a toast, and get pictures taken on their step and repeat. Every time you see one of these reality stars at a club in Las Vegas know that they are getting paid to be there.

Kim Kardashian was paid an estimated $600,000 to appear at Tao on New Years Eve’s in 2011. The fee was part of a large, multi-event deal. Scott Disick commands a personal appearance fee of $100,000 to $250,000 per event. Stacy Keibler used to demand $10,000 for personal appearances, but according to party planners she now charges $25,000.

Radar Online is reporting Lindsay Lohan is being offered $200,000 to make an appearance in Dubai (and all travel expenses) to promote Mr. Pink’s Ginseng Energy Drink, though she is demanding $500,000.

Perhaps most astonishing is that Paris Hilton was paid a $100,000 personal appearance this weekend to celebrate her 32nd birthday at Peek nightclub at Harrah’s Casino in Lake Tahoe. Because I am sure your idea of a good time is paying a fee to stand in a crowd at a night club in Lake Tahoe watching her fall over on stage because she’s too wasted to stand on her own skeletal legs. Also at some point don’t you need to wrap up the night club birthday celebration? She’s been doing this for at least 12 years now. Why not mix it up with some drinks and dinner on Skid Row? What about a quiet night with friends in the county jail? Just change it up a bit?

Imagine if we got paid to show up places? Can’t say that it would be very interesting on my end. You could watch me sing Debbie Gibson’s Electric Youth in my maternity jeans.

Paris Hilton Celebrates Her Birthday In Tahoe

It was hard for her to stand up straight. It was her birthday, after all.

AmoreMagazine.com's Kate Casey: Kris Jenner Is “Demanding and Narcissistic”

InTouch Weekly wrote a check to Robert Kardashian’s widow who was willing to fork over his old diaries and most recently Kris Jenner’s psychiatric evaluation from their 90s divorce battle. The mental health evaluation report allegedly took place during Kris’ divorce from the late Robert Kardashian and is an official court document. She must have had those files saved in a safety deposit box in the middle of a desert for safekeeping. Seems like a strange thing to just keep around considering he died more than 10 years ago.

Kris is described as “narcissistic…[with] a marked elevation of the narcissistic scale,” according to a new report from In Touch magazine. She is also slammed for her actions and responses, with the report describing her as “demanding,” “manipulative,” and having “a Cinderella attitude where situations resulted in everyone living ‘happily ever after.’” The evaluation of Kris, 57, who is now married to Bruce Jenner, said she “believed she was a loving mother to her children,” however, “her sense of self is based much more on fantasy than realistic considerations.” Robert claimed that his wife was “reckless and non-motherly.”

It kind of makes sense, no? Telling everyone her daughter’s second trip down the aisle was like a royal wedding even though her claim to fame was a Vivid video made with her quasi-rapper ex-boyfriend? Dressing like she is one of her 30-year-old daughters? Forcing her miserable diamond earring-wearing husband to remain married to her in order to protect her brand? Overlooking her daughter’s high school education so they can have their own breakout reality show or be able to model for a Japanese bag line? Bankrolling her lazy son’s luxury sock line so he has somewhere to go when he’s not playing video games and reorganizing his closets? Etc. Etc.

Come to think about it…. Maybe she should leave Bruce and shack up with my dad?

From my dad’s most recent letter to me:

“I wonder if you are watching Downtown Abbey on PBS, it is all the rage around here. I can relate to a lot of it, being half English, and living in England myself.”

This is the same guy that speaks with a fake Irish accent, now goes by his Gaelic name, and claims he was a part of major historical moments in Irish political history over the last 30 years. Now he relates to a show about English aristocracy and their servants.

They could be good together. Bruce could get the divorce he so badly wants and Kris and my dad could have a spin off show called Crazy Love. Could be a ratings hit.

The Kardashians Sign 3 Season, $40 Million Deal With E!

We all know the Kardashians make a lot of money, but when it comes to just their TV show Keeping Up with the Kardashians on E!, and nothing more? The klan will split a pot of $40 million to do the show for another three seasons.

This is the richest deal in reality TV to date.

So how will the money be divided up according to TMZ,

Kim, Kourtney, Khloe, Kris and Bruce will get the lion's share of the money ... and they are each getting equal pay. We're told Kendall, Kylie and Rob are on a lower pay grade -- and will be paid equally as well.

Scott Disick and his son Mason have a separate deal. Ditto for Lamar ... who hammered out a package deal to appear in both "Khloe and Lamar" and "Keeping Up with the Kardashians."

It pays to be stupid and rich in America and when that is the case - there's nothing more American the Kardashians.

Just ask Jon Hamm.

Kourtney Kardashian has been dealing with a lot of shit lately. Let's face it, first rumors were that Scott Disick was cheating on her with Kristin Cavallari, then, we find out she's preggers again. Now she has Teen Mom Farrah Abraham involved in a Tweet feud.

Farrah Tweeted:

Ouch! Kourtney responed with:

"Why would I have anything to do with teen mom? I'm 32 years old! I may look young honey, but don't get it twisted. :)"

Farrah? We can only assume we have not heard the last of this.

AmoreMagazine.com's Kate Casey: Kardashians Now Selling Pregnancies

Kourtney Kardashian is on the over of this week's US Magazine because she has announced she is pregnant with her second child. Industry sources guess she likely sold the interview exclusive to the magazine for $100,000.

She is only nine weeks pregnant. She probably just had her first ultrasound this week, but she would have been having talks with the magazine's editors and photo staff at least a week prior (if not more). So basically she sold a pregnancy before she even heard the baby's heartbeat.

The Kardashians are looking for some good press. Kim is in a supposed self-imposed exile post-nuptial bust. This is not good for Kris Jenner's wallet or her blood pressure. Without a child on Dancing with the Stars and many outlets willing to buy staged paparazzi photos she needs something clever. This is how I think the call with US Weekly went down:

Kris: Hi guys, it's me again.

Editors: Hi, Kris. We think our readers might need a little Kardashian down time. People are still pretty pissed about the showmance you guys put on. And we don't think anyone cares that Rob lost weight on a dancing show. Our focus groups were not interested in a story about Bruce's latest facelift. No one seems to think the younger kids have anything interesting to say, unless one of them is pregnant with Justin Bieber's baby.

Kris: Actually, there is a preggo.

Editors: Really? Great. Let's just go through legal.

Kris: But this one is Kourtney.

Editors: Really? I thought they sleep in separate bedrooms? Doesn't she hate him?

Kris: Oh, she absolutely does. Thinks he is vile, but she wants to get an endorsement deal with Pampers. Plus she owes me a couple bucks, so I told her if she gets pregnant we can sell you the interview and then we can call it even.

Editors: Um, okay.

Kris: These kids need to learn that money doesn't grow on trees.

Editors: How far along is she?

Kris: She just took the test. In fact I am calling you from the bathroom.
