I think she deserves better! I mean, the movie is earning MILLIONS in the box-office and she only gets a really small fraction despite that fact? Come on! I'm sad for Sarah because she's doing everything she can to succeed but she still comes short when it comes to being paid. She should fight for her right and demand a higher talent fee, for crying out loud! How can people like Kris Aquino and Willie Revillame earn more than her? What they do is not even close to what Sarah Geronimo offers. I'm not a big fan or anything like that, I just hate the unfair treatment.

what?! that's what she got for all her hardwork and with the success of her movie. that was really unfair for her, i think she deserves more than that. i totally agree with you, but these people Kris and Willie are the main audience grabbers especially in wowowee which makes him earn a lot. the mass loves him that's why abs gives him so much in return. i am not a fan okay. i just say what i observed.

Yes this is true, that Sarah's talent fee is only Php 200K per movie. Am looking forward that after these two blockbuster movies, she will be asking 3-4M almost equal to KC Concepcion's talent fee.

Hi inkyuboz! I have heard this from my sister and I really feel sorry for Sarah. I have watched the movie and loved the acting and chemistry of John Lloyd and Sarah in the movie. I think the movie producer should have given BIG bonus to Sarah since the movie was a BIG blockbuster. I do hope that she will be paid fair enough in her next movie assignment.

I am a fan and I can't believe that is what her TF is. She definitely absolutely deserves more. But now that she has proved her mettle in the box office, I am sure that it will be much much more than that. Looking forward to seeing more of her, in whatever field she chooses.

She and John Lloyd must have 200K talent fee + atleast 5-10% of the film's gross income..

ive heard about this too. and i can't belive she got a measly amoutn as her pay from the movie. ive watched the movie myself and i belive she deserves MORE than that. the producers said that they had given her Php 1M as a bonus, but I still think that its not enough considering that the movie has earned almost Php200M. Who's her manager? Maybe she should have a manager that will defend her to these nasty producers who are trying to bargain her.

Hello inkyuboz! Are you serious that she only got 200k for her talent fee? How did you know about this? I thought she's earning more than that. If it's true, then you're right. She's working hard day and night and only earned 200k. But probably now that she really proves herself, probably, her talent fee will increase.
