Uh-oh! Some of these folks are NOT going to appreciate hearing this!

A new report has calculated the amount of money various TV personalities are paid per viewer - by dividing their annual income by the average number of people tuning into them. And we don't know about you, but we were VERY surprised by some of the results!

For example, Keith Olbermann was the worst offender, as

Yo, maybe Scientology DOES really provide spiritual fulfillment … in the form of cold hard cash!

Regardless of the family turmoil Tom Cruise is currently engaged in, the man tops Forbes’ list of Hollywood’s Highest paid actors, earning $75 million between May 2011 and May 2012.

Now, this of course could play a defining role in Katie Holmes and Tom’s divorce, especially as Katie has filed in New York which has different regulations in terms of child support, custody, annual income, etc than California.

During her heyday, she was making really good NBC money. But things soured when the show went off the air in 2009. Not only did the two break up, but James started to get greedy and wanted a piece of the pie.

He claims because the two of them were

We all know that the cast of The Jersey Shore cleans up every season, but what about America's second favorite reality television franchise?

In theory, the Real Housewives on the hit Bravo series should already be rich, but they're still making a pretty penny for sinking their claws into each other every season.

Sources have revealed how much cast members from various installments make every year and some of the numbers on those paychecks are HUGE!
