I guess Jessica and Yousef will be asking for a bigger share of the revver money.
ReplyDeleteWhat's 15% of 15 cents?
The contractual side of all of this is very interesting. Nothing has been said about LG15 having any union contracts, and I doubt they do because they're not required to in the least (as of now.)
ReplyDeleteIt would be interesting to see them organize under the umbrella of AFTRA (SAG would be a huge stretch), but it's not going to happen anytime soon. The strike, then, wouldn't affect LG15 - it might help it, actually.
On a similar note, the original reports said that they started paying Jessica a few weeks after the LG15 videos started appearing. If they did sign a contract with her, and if it was for a year, it's entirely possible that the year could be up very, very soon.
Curious, especially given speculation about the current plotline.
Seriously, I would love to know what kind of contracts they have, but we probably never will.
