Despite the popularity of social media, celebrities still risk their relationship with the press by letting their photo appear on a magazine cover. While landing on a magazine cover remains a valuable promotional strategy, celebrities are now more likely to engage with fans through their social media accounts. In addition to landing on the cover of a magazine, a celebrity can get paid for an interview with the magazine. This type of work is also lucrative for models, including Victoria Secrets models who earn millions of dollars for a single photoshoot.

Victoria Secret models earn a lot of money from single photoshoots
In the world of modelling, a Victoria’s Secret model is a well-paid job, with salary packages that often reach a million dollars per photoshoot. In addition to their hefty paychecks, Victoria’s Secret models also make a lot of money outside of the organization through other fashion endorsement deals. These lucrative jobs help them build their brand names and fame while fattening their paychecks.
One Victoria’s Secret model is Barbara Kroes. The Dutch goddess was a Victoria’s Secret Angel from 2008 to 2013. She was the first supermodel to land four solo international covers in a year (2013 and 2014). Today, she is the face of retail company Marks & Spencer and is also a brand ambassador for L’Oreal.

Kim Kardashian is getting paid $1 million for exclusive coverage of her upcoming nuptials
Kim Kardashian is in wedding planning mode, and the magazine she’s getting paid for the coverage has a very unique deal with the star. E!, the network that has been the home to the Kardashian family for years, is getting paid $1 million for exclusive coverage of her upcoming nuptials. The magazine will also get the exclusive photos of the nuptials, which will be featured during a four-hour television special that will air on E! in October.
The exclusive deal was signed after a rival magazine made a bid of nearly USD 2 million, but the magazine refused to confirm the price. The magazine is concerned that the public’s fascination with Kardashian is waning. That may be one of the reasons why they fought so hard to get exclusive coverage of the nuptials. But even if the magazine doesn’t lose money on the deal, they can still make money from the divorce.
Despite the skepticism of Kanye and Kim Kardashian over being featured on Kim Kardashian’s reality show, the pair made several cameos during the engagement and lead up to the wedding. Kim Kardashian has reportedly made a prenup clause which states that any money she earns through the show is hers to keep. According to sources, the Kardashian family has a multi-year contract with Disney, with the first year starting in June 2017. This deal has the potential to pay off as Kim Kardashian has a burgeoning empire of products, including perfumes and clothes lines.
