You must not have watched the office. Kevin is the brightest crayon in the box, if you know what I mean.

He does cook a mean chilli though, or so I've heard.

Yeah, but they're only like 1-2 minutes long. That's $1 mil for like 100 hours of work.

Do we think this is more a 50/50 split vs 90/10 or maybe a flat fee? Can talent negotiate their own rate?

Even if he was only clearing 250k, talk about a cheesecake gig.

According to Techcrunch, Cameo takes a 25% cut

Cameo was cool when it first launched and you could surprise people and make them think you were personal friends with D tier celebrities.

Cameo has got to be one of the most genius ideas in recent memory.

I paid Scott Steiner $100 to call my friends a couple of fat asses with fat oozing over their beltlines.

I'm guessing he enjoys reaching out to fans a great deal to be that active.

It's a great business idea BTW.

Sounds like generated that amount, but he has to share a certain percentage with Cameo.

Cameo gets a 25% cut, so after taxes he's probably around $500k-ish. Still a good chunk of change.

Damn!

That's a very good living. Good for him!

I now a lot of hollywood actors are struggling to find work during Covid. Production of everything seems to be down.

166.6666 (repeating, of course) hours by my calculation. So about 21 8-hour work days, or one month of us normal folks working a regular full time job. Not bad for a cool million.

About 10-15 years ago there was Hollywoodiscalling.com. It was the same thing only via phone. They had a fairly obscure lineup of mostly washed up actors and athletes. I think the biggest names were the likes of Lou Ferigno, Marvin Hagler, and a bunch of wrestlers and actors from cult and sci-if films.

he sounds really smart. take about 5 to 10 mins to do a video, and you work less than 3 hours a day from home and make $1M/year? what a great gig.

but you'd probably lose out on more people who think the price is too high for a side character from a sitcom. He's going fast food model.

I think I saw stanley on there for like $500...uhh no thanks
