Not bad for 3 mins of skating...:D
she owes 300k in taxes (US dollars) so thats a good amount to pay off it.

I hope Matt Evers got paid the same!
You can be sure he didn't earn that amount.
Back in 2008 Schofield was apparently getting £50,000 an hour for doing the show - Pam Anderson's £150k was much better value!:D

If it's that easy, I think I'll get a pair of false boobs and make a sex video................
'All in all we've spent about £150,000 on Pammy and she has lasted one week. It's a disaster.'
based on the above I doubt she received all of the £150k but still received a hefty sum. They had to pay for Chris and Matt to visit US for trainining.
I don't know she may have walked away with the whole amount depends how good her people were at negotiating her contract. She didn't walk off the programme, she was voted off so she upheld her side. Could be inflated figures of her fee to start with who knows. All the more publicity for DOI and that's ultimately what they are looking for.
Laughing at the 'it's a disaster' they should have perhaps done a bit of research on her activites beforehand. On past experience the outcome wasn't unexpected. DWTS were obviously smarter as they didn't pay for Tristan to fly across the globe with her so that was part of the reason she didn't train so much, think she had been in the Bulgarian Big Brother before that and don't think she lasted long there either. Think that's what she does flies around the world and does different shows.
The cynic in me thinks she was put there for the publicity but not to last very long in there. She didn't get public support on DWTS either me thinks ITV needed to do their research. Correcting my earlier post, she was out in week 1 on DWTS.
Does anyone REALLY believe the wardrobe malfunction story? I don't. They paid her 150K, gave her fabulous accommodation, first class tickets etc BUT could not get the wardrobe mistress to get her a dress that she did not fall out of!! Hilarious.
Sure there were ways and means of keeping her in longer, if they thought about it:D
Noticed in her first dance she had a dress with flesh coloured fabric at the top to keep her ample bosom in check. For the skate off she was wearing a strapped dress and was pouring out over the top of it, before she even skated, a wardrobe malfunction waiting to happen. By accident or design:D
Least she is laughing about it, some would be mortified.

Look at the pictures in the link she almost poppping out they so yes I do think it went all wrong.
They have exclusive contracts from ITV so don't get paid specifically for DOI. Obviously Pip's salary also covers This Morning, The Cube etc. - since Christine got the elbow from Daybreak she doesn't do much apart frm DOI though. Her contract is up in the Summer & I suspect ITV will be relieved to save a few quid. I don't expect to see her on Dancing On Ice next year.
Also I believe Chris actually lives in America these days anyway so they wouldn't have to fly him out especially and Matt Evers technically still lives there as well although he seems to be mostly based here these days. Again though he would normally have been back in America for a while before DOI starts anyway so again he probably wouldn't have been flown out just for that.
If they were treating her as their big star, they should have had the sense to save her until Week 2, to be sure of two week's worth of appearances. Also, she might be a big, tabloid friendly star, but she's not the sort of person the public would automatically vote for. I thought she came across well enough, but soap stars, Olympic heroes and surprisingly bad X Factor winners have a stronger connection with the voting public. An extra week to endear herself wouldn't have hurt.
They couldn't because she was swanning off back to L.A to do a charity thing for Haiti which is why she had to skate in the first week they didn't have a choice. They had to plan around her schedule so its technically her own fault she had to skate in Week 1.
Personally given her attitude in that interview I don't think she is that big a loss to the show.
Yes, but it was planned!! It gave Pammie an early exit. She was wearing a TINY dress, obviously, ANYONE who looked at the outfit would know she would have a problem with her enlarged boobs. I doubt this decision was made by a wardrobe mistress. Everything I have seen shows the dress slipping but if she was wearing nipple plaster she MUST HAVE KNOWN her boob or boobs would nearly fall out! Apparently, Phil mentioned there was a problem during rehearsals for the show, so why was the outfit not changed? Her first skating outfit was fine, no problem at all!! I can well see why Pammie was happy with (alledgely) 150K for a few minutes "work"!!! If you saw the pics of her out and about in London she looked far from "devastated"!! Also Pammie has earned her money by exposing her body, I somehow doubt she would be deeply upset about a bit of boob slipping out of her dress.
Agree as most of these "big Hollywood Stars" are in fading careers, e.g. Pammie, David Hasselhof, Charlene from Dallas etc. All presented to the UK TV audience as "Hollywood Stars" when they cannot get work in the USA. David Hasselhof for example appears to have a serious alcohol problem, even appeared on This Morning slurring his words and looking drunk. Still, if the producers of these shows are daft enough to pay these enormous salaries you can hardly blame the "stars" for taking it. Would Pammie be doing UK panto if she was still a big star?
Wrong of me I know, but I cannot be bothered with trans-Atlantic imports into our RTV programmes.
Speidi have made a similar impression on me.:yawn::yawn:
.... And also why would you use a nipple petal or whatever she called it if you didn't expect to pop out of the dress. It was all publicity for her and the show.
