If you become rich, you are bound to become richer, and if you are celebrity, it is hard to turn into a pauper. How? Courtesy, the media which is always willing to shower you with criticism, praise and money – lots of it! You become a parent, you get millions of dollars to publish your pics in a tabloid or magazine. You get married, and if you are an A-List celebrity, you can earn more than you can spend on your lavish wedding. The latest case has been of one Ms Goody who is suffering from incurable cervical cancer and has earned a cool 700,000 pounds for selling rights for live TV coverage of her wedding! Ms Good has rightfully and understandably stated that the money will be used for her kids’ wedding after she is gone.
The celebrity couples all over the world and Hollywood make babies and money almost instantly. Who can forget the golden couple of Hollywood Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie who pocketed a whopping 7 million pounds for selling rights of pictures of their twins Vivienne Marcheline and Knox Leon. I bow to Brangelina that they donated the whole sum to charity. Brangelina did another lucrative deal when they charged 5 million pounds for shots of their adopted child Pax Thien Jolie-Pitt! Brangelina’s closest rivals have been Marc Anothnoy-JLO who made themselves richer by USD 6 million by selling rights of their twins Max and Emme to People magazine.
Far away from Hollywood, sportspersons have been raking in the moolah as well, and making more money selling photographs than playing sports or doing advertisements. EPL heartthrob and Manchester United star footballer Wayne Rooney made 2.5 millions pounds by letting OK! magazine cover his wedding. David Beckham did fairly well for himself circa 1999 when he sold his wedding pics with Posh Spice for 1 million pounds (that’s peanuts for him) to OK!
Other A-list celebs who have made millions getting married are Demi Moore-Aston Kutcher, and Ava Longoria-Tony Parker. The likes of Matthew McConaughey, and Petr Andre-Jordan have made their millions be making babies.
So, if you are a celebrity, and have gone broke, the formula to get rich again is simple: Make babies or get married, and become a millionaire again!
