Octomom Inks Showbiz Deal For Tots
Each Child To Earn $250 A Day
SHAYA TAYEFE MOHAJER, Associated Press Writer

LOS ANGELES -- Octuplet mother Nadya Suleman has signed agreements for each of her 14 children to earn $250 a day to star in a reality television show.

The contracts filed Friday in Los Angeles Superior Court guarantee the children will collectively earn about $250,000 over three years. The contracts require a judge's approval.

European production company Eyeworks has inked the deal with Suleman. Eyeworks lists "Breaking Bonaduce" and "The Biggest Loser" among its television credits.

The show is slated to begin filming Sept. 1, according to the documents.

The payments outlined in the contracts say Suleman's kids will collectively earn $125,000 for 36 days of shooting in the first year of production, $75,000 for 21 days in the second year and $50,000 for 14 days in the third year. Any extra shooting days will be compensated at the same rate.

Amen ta that.

If I were the producer, I'd try to negotiate a group discount for the kids.

I don't anticipate *ever* watching this particular slab o' tripe. Even as a train wreck, it's lost its fascination. I feel very badly for those kids.

The kids should have joined the SAG, they could have done better. $250 a day is chump change.

You know I'd normally say she needs to be shot but I'm afraid she'll still find ways to multiply after shot

Didn't someone once say, "We as a society are judged by how we treat our children"? If "they" didn't, they should have.....

Sickening. Totally sickening.

Actually a reality show would be under AFTRA’s jurisdiction. And I was happy to hear on the news that Paul Petersen, child actor rights extraordinaire, was already on them. I believe to point out rules about work hours and the Coogan Act. One day those kids are going to thank Paul Petersen.
