Exactly nine years ago, the American series

The Office

came to an end.

Despite this, most of

its actors continue to receive money,

which directly or indirectly comes from the famous production.

For example,

Steve Carell

has recognized that part of his success has had to do with his interpretation of Michel Scott and Brian Baumgartner, who played Kevin Malone, usually appears in the news, because he is one of the celebrities who has made the most money. cattle

selling greetings.

Yes, greetings: anniversary, birthday, Valentine's Day and all with the humorous touch of

The Office

"I find it a rewarding task. I see it as an attempt to connect with the fans," the actor told the BBC in November.

An attitude similar to that taken by the second man who has earned the most with this "alternative job":

the comedian Gilbert Gottfried.

According to GoBankingRates, the comedian has earned close to

400,000 euros for greeting

his fans, whom he considers to be delivering good service.

What's more, according to

The New York Post

, Gottfried has such good recommendations that some confirm that his followers cry after seeing him on camera.

"My mother has cancer and, after seeing the video, she burst into tears.

Nothing made her smile until she saw you ",

wrote one of the nearly 3,000 people who have already commented on her clips.

And it is that, according to numerous specialized media, the issue of

"video-greetings"

is a real

rage

throughout the world.

The reason?

As Gottfried explains, the business makes Internet users

reach celebrities who they considered "impossible"

and that they, for the services, earn extra money.

And it's not just that artists who have financial problems do it.

For example,

Michael Rapaport,

known for

Prison Break

, has a fortune of eight million euros.

However, he feels the need to charge €139 for a greeting.

Likewise, Tom Felton (Draco Malfoy, in

Harry Potter

) would have 20 million in the bank.

Yet he likes to ask

€620 just for congratulating someone.

Although it is necessary to say that none of them keep 100% of the money, because most of these platforms keep 25% of the payment.

Cameo is one of the first greeting platforms that this February has begun to offer

videos of famous Spaniards,

among which are

Fernando Cayo

, Beret, Juan Magan, Pinto Wahin,

Mario Vaquerizo, Fernando Verdasco,

Carmen Lomana and

Chenoa

, who - According to official information, he charges

€85 for making any fan happy.

Also, fans of Fangoria can receive a message from

Alaska

for less than €90 and tennis fans, one from

Feliciano López for €133.

A figure that, for many, may sound crazy.

But when compared to other elite athletes, it is not "too much".

Because, for example,

Myke Tyson charges €17,800 for a video,

while

Floyd Mayweather

receives €13,350 for speaking for a few seconds.

Despite this, not all

celebs

get paid the money they earn.

Among them,

Fran Drescher

(the protagonist of

The Nanny

) and

Caitlyn Jenner

-who requests €2,220 per video-, who assure that they

donate their profits to the charitable NGOs

that they themselves have created.

Similarly, Pau Gasol has stated that the total of what he collects goes directly to

his foundation,

which is dedicated to empowering talented children.

Something that also motivates Alaska.

However, the singer has decided to give part of her funds for

the rescue of some primates.

Still, a large percentage of celebrities won't tell you how they spend their greeting money.
