How do celebutantes make a living?

Lynn Warren and Alexander Ali (Editors of LARagMag.com) gives expert video advice on: What is a celebutante?; Where does the word celebutante come from?; Why do we love to watch celebutantes? and more...

Once you become a celebutante you can live off appearance fees where you make anywhere from $50,000-$200,000 for showing up to a party. Alexander Ali: Paris Hilton made $1,000,000 for sitting at a runway show. Lynn: Yes. She was literally paid to be in the audience. Because when you are Celebutante you are photographed over and over again. When you carry a shopping bag from Kitson, you are being photographed. That's the biggest publicity this Kitson company can get. Companies know that. They pay these celebrities to show up and bring publicity to your event. And they make a lot of money. Lindsey Lohan got $200,000 to show up at a night club, Pure Vegas, and she didn't even show up because she went into rehab, but she still got the $200,000. Alexander: Yep.
