The cast members of 'Jersey Shore' are milking their new found fame for all it's worth! For starters, the cast negotiated a salary of $10,000 per episode next season - double what MTV had originally offered them. Now some cast members are making up to $7,500 a night for personal appearances, and you better believe they are making as many of these appearances as they can.
According to the New York Post, MTV is not happy about this. They have ordered the cast, including "Snooki", "The Situation", "Pauly D" and "JWoww" to slow down on the appearances at bars and clubs or face legal action. MTV fears it will hurt their image if the cast continues to "pimp themselves" across the country.
But of course, certain cast members refuse to listen to these rules. The cast just wants to earn as much money as they can. Some cast members are taking it even further, using their new fame to really bring in the big bucks.
"Pauly D" isn't just trying to land personal appearances for $7,500 a night, he plans to start DJing for a rate between $10,000 - $25,000 a gig!
"The Situation" is launching his own cologne named "The Sitch". Doesn't it usually take celebrities years before launching their own fragrance? If this seems a little crazy to you, you're not alone. The 'Jersey Shore' casts' manager gloats, "This is something like America hasn't seen before as far as reality TV goes". No kidding!
