Famous Line from Jerry Maguire: "Show Me the Money!"

Famous line from All the President's Men: "Follow the Money!"

I read an article that detailed some of the appearance fees famous folks get, just to be somewhere. A lot of jing at stake, so it may explain the desire to be famous...

According to a list of celebrity appearance fees, Beyoncé can command up to $2 million per appearance, while Jay Z gets up to $1.5 million.  Cher gets $1.5 million, Christina Aguilera once got $1 million to perform for an HOUR . . . and Vanilla Ice can be yours for $15,000. $15,000 for a has-been. And if you can't afford a has-been, you can have a never-was, me, for a lot less. Let's talk.
