Celebrity Traitors salaries REVEALED ahead of much-anticipated new series

BBG News

Before the highly anticipated premiere, it has been disclosed who earns what among the high-profile actors featured in Celebrity Traitors.

Nearly two dozen renowned personalities have already shot scenes featuring deceit and treachery set within Scotland’s Ardross Castle. Viewers are anxiously counting down to the show’s premiere.

Notable figures such as Stephen Fry, Kate Garraway, Paloma Faith, Joe Marler, and Alan Carr are among those who have signed up for participation. They will demonstrate their strategic skills in a series of challenges.

Eagerly waiting for the premiere of the UK’s inaugural celebrity edition, I recently learned about the impressive paychecks of the A-list participants, as unveiled by The Rest Is Entertainment podcast.

Instead of receiving their own separate payment, all celebrities on the show received a flat fee of £40,000 each, as reported by journalist Marina Hyde.

As a die-hard fan, I can’t help but draw some intriguing parallels between the captivating “Celebrity Traitors” on the BBC and the thrilling “I’m A Celebrity” on ITV. Richard, you know I love discussing this stuff with you!

Even though we haven’t witnessed the upcoming celebrity version as of now, it’s clear that it’s bound to make a huge impact. Just look at the high-caliber individuals they’ve managed to secure for the project.

She revealed that they managed to provide everyone with an equal 40k payment, in other words, a flat rate of 40k per person. Today, she’s letting it all out, and that’s the information she disclosed.

Richard, the seemingly aimless host, aged 54, drew an analogy with the show “The White Lotus,” emphasizing that their celebrity cast members were compensated a flat rate of $40,000 (approximately £29,000) per episode, rather than separate payments for each individual.

He said, “It’s somewhat comparable to the situation at White Lotus where everyone received equal pay, but it was significantly lower than what one usually earns.” Then, he quickly clarified, “In the entertainment industry, everyone is actually excessively overcompensated.

Next, Richard playfully implied that he acquaints with an individual who watched the initial episode, praising it as ‘fantastic’, insinuating that enthusiasts would not be left unsatisfied.

The BBC declined to comment when approached by TopMob.

The filming for Celebrity Traitors commenced towards the end of April, with the cast spotted arriving at Inverness Airport. Already, the shooting for this series has been completed.

It’s not certain when it will be released, but we anticipate it will air on BBC during fall 2025.

Among the celebrities set to portray both Traitors and Faithfuls are actors such as Stephen Fry, Ruth Codd, Celia Imrie, Tameka Empson, and Mark Bonnar.

In addition to the comedians Alan Carr, Nick Mohammed, Joe Wilkinson, and Lucy Beaumont, performers Paloma Faith, Cat Burns, and Charlotte Church will also participate in the event.

In addition, it has been verified that hosts such as Jonathan Ross, Clare Balding, Kate Garraway, Olympic diver Tom Daley, rugby player Joe Marler, historian and author David Olusoga, and YouTube personality Niko Omilana will also be part of the event.

In my expert opinion, it’s worth noting that Jennifer Saunders, the talented actress and comedian, was conspicuously absent from the final roster despite widespread speculation about her participation.

BBC authorities implemented additional security measures to ensure secrecy surrounding the cast before the unveiling, given the recent string of leaks.

As reported by The Sun, the executives organized a highly structured, military-like operation to transport the star-studded cast to Ardross Castle.

To prevent drone photographers from capturing pictures, an airspace restriction (or no-flying zone) had been established above Claudia’s Headquarters in the Highlands.

As a die-hard fan, I must admit that unraveling the mystery behind this show known for its enigmatic secrets and jaw-dropping plot twists feels like solving an intricate puzzle.

Engaging individuals like TV host Kate Garraway, ex-rugby player Joe Marler, and singer Paloma Faith for the show may lead to a more gossip-prone and leak-susceptible environment compared to selecting a call center manager from Liverpool or a retired opera singer.

‘So execs have worked really hard to lock down every inch of the production.’
