Do they get paid?!


Question: I was wondering if the contestants, in reality TV shows, get paid for the weeks they are in the show or the winner takes it all?

Depends on the program, but usually particpants receive some kind of stipend.

The Osbournes were incredibly well compensated, as I recall ($20m for a second season). But your average Joe probably makes between 800 and a few thousand a week. Faded stars often receive amounts as low as 50,000 for the complete run of a show.

yes they get paid too

Yes they do. Like in Survivor, for every week they stay on the show, they get about 2000 dollars for that week or something around that.

It depends what show it is, but most of them still get prize money for each "level"/episode they are on.

In all the reality shows I know of they do get paid.

Sometimes they may not directly paid in Cash, but they are "paid" in gifts (free airplane tickets, free hotel rooms, free meals, limo rides to/from studio, etc).

One example was the Jerry Springer show, which came under attack for giving their guests perks like this. At one point, they were accused of actually paying for trashy people to appear in the show, but I think they quickly stopped that.

i don't think they get pd weekly but they do get free room and board and food and spending money... they prob get pd after the show is done
