How Much? Here’s Exactly What Scarlett Moffatt Gets Paid To Appear On Gogglebox
It's probably not what you were expecting.
Imagine getting paid to watch the telly. The dream, right?
Well, that’s a reality for the stars of Gogglebox but if you thought they were earning mega bucks for starring on the hit Channel 4 show then you’d be wrong.
According to a Channel 4 insider who spoke to The Sun Scarlett Moffatt and her Gogglebox co-stars earn a monthly allowance of £1,500 per family, roughly €1,700.
That amount is then split between each member of the family at their own discretion, meaning that Scarlett, who normally appears alongside her mum, dad and sister, gets about €425 a month, if the money is split equally.
It’s not as much cash as we were expecting, but for a couple of hours spent watching the box, we wouldn’t say no. Plus there are some perks to the job. Apparently each family gets a free takeaway to get them through each 6-hour stint of telly watching, so it’s not exactly a rough deal.
Hmm. Come to think of it, weren’t TV3 recently looking for new recruits for the Irish version of the show?
BRB, we think we’ve found our calling.
Have your say
