2023 groom revealed that the contestants on his season were paid $1,175 a week during filming.
Look, I’ve done a lot worse for a lot less.
During the same Q&A, Jesse also said that the cast had to provide their entire wardrobe while on the show. Considering that meant a whole new fit for each dinner party, commitment ceremony and an array of dates, that shit would start to add up.
The pay packet has had a slight increase to last year’s contestants. According to a IG Q&A by villain, 2022 contestants were paid “$1,100 per week” for their time.
It’s good to have an actual figure to play with because Olivia’s rival was kinda vague when discussing the dollarydoo sitch.
“Look, even [] said there wasn’t even enough to cover his rent,” she added.
Meanwhile 2018 groom once said on Insta that the brides and grooms got paid $150 per day when he was on.
“Did pay for new outfits each week or the dinner parties or commitment ceremonies?” A fan asked asked during an Insta Q&A.
“You gotta do all your own hair and makeup,” he responded. “You gotta do your own dress, buy your own clothes.”
Fellow ex-groom supported Telv’s statement in an interview with .
“You get $150 for the day, that’s it,” Nasser revealed. “But on top of that, you have to pay expenses – your living expenses with the woman that you marry.”
“It’s not $150 clear. You still have to pay rent if you’re renting, you’ve gotta pay your rego and it’s 12 hour filming days.”
Apparently the contracts state that contestants “get a per diem” (AKA a daily allowance), so they’re not being “paid for work,” but for the cost of living expenses.
“That’s what you live on,” he said.
Meanwhile , the payments ranged from $3,000 for the two-day shoot (which the idiotic Nasser Sultan accepted without question because he was so desperate to get back on TV) to $40,000 (!!!), because she didn’t want a fucken’ bar of it, according to the .
Head to suss out what other reality shows pay their contestants.
Do you reckon it’s worth it?
During an appearance on The Kyle & Jackie O Show, Dom admitted that her salary was “about minimum wage”.
Dion Giannarelli“It’s enough to cover your rent, living expenses, etc. Because when you live [on the show] everything is taken care of.
“You don’t have to pay anything. That’s about maybe like an average salary, I’d say.”
