TV shows such as “Bauer sucht Frau” or “Bachelorette” are enjoying increasing popularity.
But the salaries of the candidates are sometimes terrifying.
Millions of people watch
TV shows
like "Bauer sucht Frau" * or "The Bachelorette" *.
The first-mentioned
dating show
by presenter Inka Bause *
alone
reaches an audience of millions every year.
As
reported by echo24.de
*, an average of
5.51 million viewers watched
the 16th season of “Bauer sucht Frau” *.
For comparison: the
season
last year saw an average of
5.22 million viewers
.
Candidates' fees: So much money is there on the TV show "Bauer sucht Frau"
Means: The popularity of
"Bauer sucht Frau" is
increasing.
Almost after every
season of
the
TV show,
RTL
reports
audience ratings in record highs.
A trend that can also be seen in other
TV shows
.
And many of the reality shows have something else in common: The protagonists of the programs are mostly people without TV experience who are in front of the camera for the first time.
The
candidates
are sometimes the basis for the high ratings.
Do the participants get their stakes well paid?
Opinions differ here.
In some cases there are considerable differences in
terms of
the
candidates'
fees
.
The fees from “Bauer sucht Frau” * are particularly surprising.
As
reported by echo24.de
*, the participating farmers receive a
fee of 3,000 euros
for their work.
The ladies-in-waiting come off much worse.
RTL * pays you a fee of just
250 euros
for the barn festival at the beginning of the season.
Candidates' fees: That's how much money there is in the TV show "The Bachelorette"
For each additional day of shooting, the ladies-in-waiting receive
an extra
fee of 150 euros
.
The prerequisite is of course that the farmer
invites
the
candidates
to the
farm week
.
In terms of audience ratings for
“Bauer sucht Frau”
that's not a lot of money.
Especially since the
candidates on
the
dating show
have to reveal a lot about themselves.
Is often also about individual
candidates
of
"Farmer Wants a Wife"
made fun.
Here the question arises: is it worth it?
The participants from
“The Bachelorette” got
off a
little better than the candidates from “Bauer sucht Frau” *
.
According to
OK magazine
, the bachelor or bachelorette receives a
fee
of
3,800 euros each
for the entire season.
The protagonists earn an impressive 800 euros more than the protagonists of
"Bauer sucht Frau"
.
And that even though
“Bauer sucht Frau” has
significantly higher ratings than the two Bachelor formats.
Candidates' fees: more money, fewer spectators!
This TV show is surprising
The women and men who vie for the bachelor's or bachelor's degree will receive a
fee of 3,000 euros
for their work.
According to
Focus Online,
RTL
pays
bachelor applicants an additional
500 euros beauty fee
for their beautiful appearance.
Thus, the applicants in the Bachelorette formats earn significantly more than the ladies-in-
waiting
in
“Bauer sucht Frau”
, who bottom line
comes
to just
over 1,000 euros
, provided that they
pull
through
the
farm week
to the end.
Candidates' fees: Big fees for the “Shopping Queen”?
There is one disadvantage
One week, five women and a shopping marathon: That is, in a nutshell, the plot of
“Shopping Queen”
.
Every week, TV star Guido Maria Kretschmer sends five women who put together a new outfit and are then rated by their competitors.
At the end of the day, the winner receives
an extra
fee of EUR 1,000
.
For the week of filming,
RTL
pays
the
candidates
a
fee
of around
150 euros
.
Incidentally, the
clothes that the
candidates
shop may be kept after the
TV show
.
The disadvantage is that every
candidate
's wardrobe is ransacked.
Similar to
“Bauer sucht Frau”
, the
candidates
for
“Shopping Queen”
also have to reveal a lot of intimacy.
And the participants who don't win don't really get a lot of
fees
for their work.
No comparison to
“Farmer seeks a wife”
.
Candidates' fees: Hunger fee for participants in "My child, your child"
In stark contrast to the
fees
for
“Bauer sucht Frau”
and “
The Bachelorette
” are the merits in the
TV show “My child, your child”
on the VOX broadcaster.
In terms of content, the
TV show is
about mothers vying for the perfect parenting method.
According to the agency
Casting 1
, the
fee
for the participating mothers is
100 euros
per day.
Is it worth it?
After all, the children affected have to be prepared for teasing at school.
Candidates' fees: "Wanted daughter-in-law" - embarrassment for little money?
Even the
TV show "Wanted: Daughter-in-Law"
does not come close to the
salaries
of
"Farmer Seeks Wife"
.
The single men who
are supposed to be matched
by
Vera Int-Veen
still live in their parents' house.
Regardless of whether they find love, the gentlemen get a poor
fee
.
As reported by
TV feature film
,
RTL
pays
the protagonists of “Wanted a daughter-in-law” just
1,200 euros
per season.
The applicants get off even worse.

The
candidates
for
"daughter-in-law wanted"
are fed by
RTL
with an
expense allowance of 500 euros
- for each season.
With a little luck, the maybe soon daughters-in-law will find
the love of their lives
on the
RTL
show
.
Participation is definitely not financially worthwhile.
On the contrary: in the worst case, there will be ridicule and criticism.
Quite different in the scripted reality series sees
"& Berlin Day Night"
from
RTL II
from.
Candidates' fees: In a TV show there is not a cent for the participants
“Berlin Day & Night”
is one of
RTL II's
most successful formats
.
The station is regularly looking for new actors for the scripted reality series.
Potential applicants, however, have to be careful.
The reason: The
fee
depends on the role.
According to
komparse.de
, extras receive a
fee
of only
50 to 200 euros
per day of shooting.
The main actors of “Berlin Day & Night” can
collect
around
4,000 euros
a month from
RTL II
.
According to
Focus Online,
the
candidates
for
“Germany's next top model”
are very poor
.
Heidi Klum's girls only get food and accommodation in the TV show.
A
Gage
does not exist.
But at least: the winner can win a model contract and a new car.
The losers literally get nothing.
Seen in this way, the
candidates from
the other
TV shows come off
comparatively well.
