Milana Vayntrub is now rich. Thank you This is Us. We pegged the actress as a breakout star and hello, looks like we were right. Vayntrub, star of the successful This is Us series on NBC, got paid a bonus of $250,000 for her role in the show. Cha-ching bitches!
Variety has learned exclusively that the core cast members — including Sterling K. Brown, Justin Hartley, Chrissy Metz, Mandy Moore, and Milo Ventimiglia, among others — were recently rewarded with $250,000 cash bonuses from NBC and 20th Century Fox TV, the network and studio behind the hit family drama, in recognition of the show’s first season performance.
I’ll just include Vayntrub as an “among other” for the purpose of this story and that she really did get paid this bonus. Someone fact check me if I’m wrong. I also will start referring to people as an “among other” because it sounds really funny for some reason. Like yea yea, we’re not gonna bother to name you, you schlub.
Variety also writes:
Studios often reward the casts of successful shows with cars or expensive gifts. The cash forked over by NBC and 20th TV is a significant goodwill gesture.
They forgot to add hookers and blow. C’mon, why does ANYONE go to Hollywood? Hookers and blow.
Vayntrub recently scored the Squirrel Girl role in the upcoming TV series New Warriors. Stacks on stacks.
All that money, how much cocaine will Vayntrub do? The answer is none because she’s too busy helping refugees with her non-profit, Can’t Do Nothing, and changing the world. What!!?? *sigh* But..but..cocaine!!
