‘Jersey Shore’ Cast Gets Six-Figure Raise for Upcoming Season
April 11, 2011 Apparently, it really does pay to be on the 'Jersey Shore.'
According to an exclusive report from EW.com, the eight-member cast has finalized salary negotiations for the upcoming season, which will shoot in Italy.
Sources say members of the "core group" will make "at least $100,000 per-episode," up significantly from their $10,000 per-episode salary for season 2. And that's before you count their other sources of income, which includes appearances and endorsements (like, you know, Snooki's $32,000 fee to appear at Rutgers University).
