Singer Debbie Gibson is one of the top earners on Cameo, the Broadbandchoices analysis found. The ’80s hit-maker really gives her fans their money’s worth, as she includes mini-performances along with her greetings.
“The Real Housewives” star has created over 1,600 Cameos at $99 a pop — and fans seem to be happy with her greetings. Morgan has a 4.9 out of 5-star rating.
Celebrity gossip blogger Perez Hilton has become a celebrity in his own right and now charges $90 for personalized video messages on Cameo. Hilton has a perfect 5-star rating.
Depending on which generation you grew up in, you may know Sean Astin best as Mikey from “The Goonies” or Sam from “The Lord of the Rings.” Between those two iconic roles, Astin has gained enough of a following to become one of the top earners on Cameo. He charges $295 for his video messages but you do get your bang for your buck — of all the top earners analyzed by Broadbandchoices, Astin’s videos have the longest average length by far at six minutes.
Better known as Murr, the “Impractical Jokers” star charges $349 for his Cameos. He has a perfect 5-star rating on the app.
A video message from Mr. Wonderful doesn’t come cheap. At $1,200 a pop, the “Shark Tank” star has one of the most expensive rates on Cameo, according to People.
