But then a couple people snarkily told me, “that’s what we call a blog topic.”
No shit that would be a great blog.
That list would do great numbers.
That’s why I asked the question.
Everyone wants to know that.
Unfortunately it’s just not all public information.
At least as far as I can tell.
If I’m wrong then kindly let me know.
Probably less than a day in some cases.
This is a pretty funny $10 million dollars for Larry David to make.
We all know what happened to FTX.
He had Larry David, Tom Brady, and Steph Curry promote FTX.
In the end his whole company was bullshit.
Those guys even got named in a handful of lawsuits.
Reportedly Tom Brady lost $30 million in crypto investments alone.
Steph Curry was paid $35 mil.
But I HAVE to imagine that’s on the very high end.
They were printing money at that time.
I don’t think regular, legitimate companies are dishing that out.
FTX seems like a bit of an anomaly.
Take a regular company for example.
Consider Ben Affleck’s Dunkin Donuts commercial from last year.
Again, that was last year’s commercial.
This year Dunkin' Donuts added even more star power.
Once again, Tom Brady was called upon, along with Affleck and Matt Damon.
So I’m guessing they each pulled in somewhere close to $10 million this year as well.
Beyonce’s pay for her Verizon ad this year was actually available.
She was reportedly paid $30 million for 60 seconds of air time.
Which I suppose make sense considering Beyonce rarely appears in anything.
On the other hand, her commercial also doubled as promotion for her new album.
Being paid $30 million to promote your own shit seems like a hell of a fleecing.
Most Super Bowl shoots are usually one to two days, the agent added.
Only a handful of celebrity Super Bowl commercial payouts are available.
But I like thinking about how much these people are cleaning up for such a small amount of work.
There must be value in these commercials, seeing as they continue being such a big deal every year.
Commercial spots alone are in the $7 million for 30-seconds range.
It’s always funny to me how much money these companies will put into production.
The whole phenomena behind Super Bowl commercials is crazy.
Especially considering most people will tell you they don’t care about the commercials at all.
Super Bowl ads are just so engrained into our culture.
They’re never going to stop.
One final thought… how much do you think Jesus paid is people for the feet washing commercial?
I can’t help but wonder if these actors were volunteers.
I can’t confirm that.
I’d like to think Jesus paid them out handsomely.
But I’d be dumb to not be skeptical of the church.
