Okay, I’m going to make a confession here because it’s a safe space (no it’s not – feel free to make fun of me): I’ve downloaded the Kim Kardashian: Hollywood app and I’ve played it to the point of reaching the celeb A-List. I even paid real live dollars (not many, but still) to buy more K-Stars to trade in for more K-Energy so I could continue photo shoots after my free allotment had run out. It’s a disease.
Seems like I’m not the only sucker, however, as she’s apparently going to make $85 million off this piece of shit game. That’s more than she made all last year from everything she did combined. Whaaaat?
From TMZ:
Sources familiar with the deal tell TMZ … Kim’s cut is 45% of net profits. The game — “Kim Kardashian: Hollywood” — is set to gross a reported $200 million this year alone.
We’re told the actual expenses associated with the business are relatively low. A straight 45% cut of $200 million totals a whopping $90 million. Industry sources tell TMZ … expenses would not exceed $10 million.
So … we’re no mathematicians, but 45% of $190 million is $85.5 MILLION FREAKING DOLLARS.
To put this in context … according to Forbes, Kim made $28 million last year.
So ridiculous. I was just bored and stupid. What’s everyone else’s excuses? (The same, I imagine.)
But yeah, Kim is extremely rich. Hasn’t got the sense God gave her, but she’s got money to make up for it, I suppose…
