How Much Are Celebrity Traitors Paid?
Podcast hosts Marina 1 and Richard Osman gave us the lowdown on celeb fees. Marina revealed:
“They’re paying them a 40k fee. It’s interesting to compare Celebrity Traitors on the BBC to I’m a Celebrity on ITV. Although the celebrity version hasn’t aired yet, it’s going to be massive. Look at the calibre of the people they got. They were able to pay everyone a blanket £40,000 fee, right?”
Unlike the original Traitors where players compete for a cash pot up to £120,000 for themselves, celebs are playing for their favourite charities. Money for a good cause, with a side of deception.
When Does Celebrity Traitors 2025 Start?
Mark your calendars! Celebrity Traitors 2025 premieres on Wednesday, October 8 at 9pm on BBC One and BBC iPlayer. Prepare for epic drama, double-crosses, and celebrity showdowns you won’t want to miss!
