I can't accept this. You're paying me too much. The truth is that a baseball franchise, or any other sporting franchise for that matter, are paying players what they can afford to pay them. The same applies to film stars. Whether he's worth it, I severely doubt, but that's beside the point.
Movie studios have billions of dollars at their disposal.
To criticise people like Carrey for accepting or even demanding this type of fee is ludicrous. They're simply earning what these studios can easily afford to pay out. We've seen Oasis demand a 250,000 fee for a 10 minute set at a performance in Switzerland. There are always exceptions to the rule. But to criticise politicians in this country is wrong in my opinion.
