Tricks in the jungle camp: After Dolly Buster, the contract had to be changed

The first trickery happened in the second season of the jungle camp, when the rules of the show were apparently not yet fully developed.

Like

reports, the former porn actress Dolly Buster didn't last long in the camp in 2004.

After two days and a single jungle test, she left the camp.

As?

She dutifully said the sentence: "I'm a star, get me out of here." With this brief participation, she received the entire fee (about 85,000 euros).

At that time, RTL* had no time restrictions in the contracts.

After Dolly Buster, however, the clauses were amended.

Anyone who voluntarily leaves the camp too early will forego two installments of their fee - about half, according to several media reports.

The fees for the 15th season have probably already been revealed.
