The Multi-Million Dollar Baby

Filed under: Baby Blabber > Matthew McConaughey

mx0133894.jpg

Whether you're an A-lister or a Z-lister, it seems like the latest trend in the celeb world is pimping out your kids, especially your newborns.

The most recent was Jamie Lynn Spears whoring out photos with her baby, Maddie Briann, for cash.

We highly doubt, however, that she'll be like Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt and donate that money to charity.

Jamie Lynn got paid a reported $1 million.

Now, the latest celeb set to cash in on the baby photo covers is said to be Matthew McConaughey.

Reports are that McConaughey was shopping around for the highest bidder, despite the advice of his publicist who suggested otherwise.

But McConaughey did it, and according to reports, was able to secure $3 million from OK! magazine for the exclusive photos of Levi Alves McConaughey who was born this Monday.

An insider says, "His publicist, Alan Nierob, begged him not to work with [OK!] because he's considered an A-lister. But Matthew hired money man Todd Shemarya, who brokered the Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie $4 million People deal."

His publicist is denying ever having any conversation about the matter with McConaughey.

We're not sure who to believe, but we're betting no one was against Matthew getting an easy $3 million.

    His baby might be a cutie, but I'm sure it'll be a weirdo just like his dad.

    Funny… Brad and Angelina as of right now are getting 16 mil from the highest bidder to see their twins and the bids keep coming. I would MUCH rather see Matt's baby…. I do however think it is terrible to use newborns for cash flow and as a pawn in the public's eye.

    They are a for-profit company. They wouldn't make any money donating money to the community. Get real. These magazines are big business (just like a little website I know)!

    Capitalist society - nothing wrong with setting up his child for life with a simple photo shoot. If they will pay and you can keep your moral integrity in tact - GO FOR IT!!!

    Perez u hit the nail right on the head. its fucking SICK SICK SICK how much these assholes get paid. People are losing their homes, people with respectable jobs are working there asses off barely making it, and these people show up to a club and make more then most of us do in a year. with oil prices, and our economy in the shit hole, why arent people reconsidering how much they pay these people!! Its disgusting! These people dont deserve all that they have. THEY ALL NEED A DAY IN THE FUCKING LIFE.

    If someone idiots want to pay 1 million of my baby's picture? I would and keep the cash for my kid. Donating money is ok and very good.. but just because you keep doesnt mean you are whoring your child.

    Pimping your kids is becoming an industry.. w—h—-o will be first to have triplets!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Angie and Brad give all the money to charity—give me a break. That mansion in France is baby picture money! Their movies–stink.

    So far anyway, Halle, hasn't sold her baby for profit. Would love to see, bet it's beautiful, but am more proud (so far) she hasn't.



  23. 23

    really smart moves on the celebs parts…whats the best way to keep the photopigs from stalking you and your kids wherever they go? devalue the kiddies pics by entering into deals to have pics directly taken and published…



  24. 24

    I don't begrudge Jamie Lynn her one million either. Girlfriend's gonna need it.

    Heck why not. I'd rather have the money than the paps get it. It makes a lot of sense to beat the paps to the punch. Even better if the celeb gives the money to charity which at least Brad and Angie do.

    Re: WHORE – perfectly said about yourself "whore says.." you are fucking idiot, are you out of your mind?! You have no commen sense talking about Angelina Jolie like that, she spends her life working for others and taking care of her children, they bring them everywhere?! Are you out of your fucking mind dooshbag?! What are you a dirtbag teen mother like dirtbag Jamie Lynn Spears? Talk about that bullshit, not an adult that makes adult decisions, talk about her fucking skank mother that raised two dooshbags for kids!!!!! Who are you Britney Spears?!!!! trying to get the attention off your dirtbag teen sister?! Or is your mother a fucking teen mother, what is she 6yrs older than you? You are probably from the same CuntWood town as them!!! YOU FUCKING WHORE BITCH!!!!

    These magazines AREN'T paying this much money for the pics! It's all a way to creat hype over the magazine and the pictures! Ever read Radar Magazine?? There's an article in this month's copy that explains the whole process… www.radaronline.com. The only people who know for a fact how much they got paid are the celebs themselves… Do you honestly think these mags, in this economy are going to shell out that much money for the pics that we can get on Perez.com for FREE?!? HELL NO… use some comon sense…. You can't believe everything you read- not even on HERE.

    despite the millions, i think those clothes they're wearing are simply hideous..

    It is a crying shame that celebrities, who are already rich beyond belief, get paid this kind of money for pictures of babies. I would LOVE to see these magazines offer these ridiculous amounts to NORMAL, low-income people who need food and a place to live and could certainly benefit from even $500 for a picture of their baby.

    Let's see it happen - the tabloids should make an offer to destitute parents for pictures of THEIR BABIES for a price at least enough to pay the rent. All babies look the fuckin same anyway…. what's the difference?

    Pitt and Jolie DO NOT DONATE THE ENTIRE AMOUNT TO CHARITY!!!!! PAY ATTENTION TO THE DETAILS…

    Angie and Brad should follow Halle Berry's example. She still hasn't had her daughter's picture published. Class act.

    I am really surprised he would pimp out his kid like that. Other like Angelina and Brad i can see but not Matthew. Oh well guess he is just as greedy as all the others

  35. Sydne says – reply to this


    35

    Babies should be HANDS-OFF (or rather, eyes-off) for sites like yours and TMZ and all you lot. Children should be allowed to the childhoods, and should be HANDS-OFF for the paps as well. And parents should stop pimping out their children to the paps and rags. Period.

    Obama's pimpin' their kids on access hollywood. Cute kids, did put Michelle in a better light, so Hollywood make over seems to be working.

    I don't give a rat's behind how this child looks like. Hate to see this vedette man. Such a stupid trend. If Angelina (love her) jumps from a five storey building, Man-dona will follow suit, and so will the A to Z asses.

    about her looks different like she is mixed with black or does she just tan very well matthew never said she was black

  42. agent says – reply to this


    42

    This is insanity. We have gotten to the point where there are people whose livelihood hinges on celebrities popping out babies. I imagine some slimy agent who sits around thinking "If Hannah Montana had a baby at 15 and one of those Jonas boys was the father…I could buy a yacht." And the fact that some of these people are making enough off of their baby exploitation to never have to work, like Larry Birkhead and Britney's sister, is even more ridiculous.

    save yo' mago-rag money—donate to charity in protest…that'd be hilllarious and intersting spin-wise. beside who cares about him. he doesnt do anything-rreally and it'd put hm in his pimpn place. we'll his baby a billion times any chance he can get otherwise wont we???
