How much do you think should someone get paid if someone wants to make a documentary for them? free?
It might shock you to know that frequently the subject of documentaries are not compensated. And, when they are, I can almost guarantee its not in the eight figure range. I mean, Beyonce was reportedly paid $20M for her doc on Netflix, but she's actually popular and it got a millions of streams. She is also significantly better know, respected and followed than Melania.

So they can get paid 20M and up but Melania can't because she's not popular than Beyonce? This might shock you but...she's the FLOTUS...

Yes, and she is not popular. She has nowhere near the star power of Beyonce. I'm sure that if you asked 100 people, 99 of them would be more excited to see Beyonce than Melania in person. And, Beyonce is known worldwide. Melania is a joke in the vast majority of the world (I mean, if you exclude the MAGA-sphere in the US, she's unpopular there as well). But the fact that you think she is as popular (or maybe even more popular) than Beyonce says it all.

Also, don't you think it's weird that she got $28M for this drivel? And, I really want you to think about this for a second: Do you think they could have gotten Melania's permission to make a documentary on her at a fraction of the cost? I mean, do you think she'd turn this down if they only offered her $3m? And, did Amazon MGM really think this would be an amazing piece of cinema that would recoup the price they paid? I mean, $75M is nothing to sneeze at. Or, is the Amazon board looking at the loss and just chalking it up to a business expense to ensure the company continues to get government contracts and little pushback from Trump?

And, while nobody will ever come out and say it was a bribe to ensure Trump and his DOJ didn't fuck with Amazon, I think most people see it for what it is: graft. No other film studio was bidding for this, most likely because none cared enough, or thought it would be successful.

Melania has her own fans....again why compare her with Beyonce? One is a singer performer...the other one is a First Lady....Like Princess Di....You mad she gets a documentary that pays her 28m? who you wanna compare her next Taylor Swift? Serena Williams?

Sure, why not. Both are vastly more popular, better known and respected than Melania. I'm not necessarily mad that she got paid $28M. I think all SPs should be able to charge what they want and see if the market will bear it. The issue I have is that this is a payoff. You obviously don't see that (or more likely care about it), but I do recall you making quite a stink about Hunter Biden's paintings...

You're just coping right now...I know you're mad... passive aggressive jab..."I'm ok with her getting paid 28M...because SPs should charge what they want".. This was a project...a documentary...obviously there was an offer to make the movie...it could flop or make it big...apparently...they're making money...even beat Jason Statham action flick...

She is the only first lady to ever have a negative approval rating. Her and Trump are the worst of all time and it's not even close. Even many MAGAts hate the Trumps but they are willi g to put up with them to further their agendas and fatten their wallets. The people that do love the trumps are mentally challenged

Did you have an issue with hunter selling his artwork or getting paid to be on the board of directors for an energy company .?
Can you imagine if the trumps rained as democrats and tried pulling this shit ? Milenia would have been deported and deemed a Russian spy after a lengthy investigation from Comer and the boys
