Kim Kardashian Makes $22 Million On Wedding Day

Oh my God.  This picture actually made news, today.  Does this ass make my ass look big? 
I know that marriage is supposed to be rewarding, but profitable?!  Apparently, Kim Kardashian thinks so.  Last weekend, she made over $22 million marrying boyfriend Kris Humphries.
 "The newlyweds sold the exclusive photo rights to US People magazine for $2.4 million, but the biggest payout came from the four-hour, two-part TV special that will air on the E! Network in October, according to the New York Post. 
"Kim’s Fairytale Wedding: A Kardashian Event " is expected to pull up to $15 million for the Kardashian family franchise and for producer Ryan Seacrest. 
The couple also get $300,000 for their exclusive engagement announcement in People and $100,000 for exclusive rights to the bridal shower with Britain’s OK! Magazine."
So...that's $17.8 million in cash.  There's another $4.4 million that was made in freebies given to the couple in exchange for promotional consideration at the event:
  • Three $20,000 Vera Wang wedding dresses (all of which were somehow worn)
  • $400,000 worth of Perrier Jouet Champagne 
  • A $15,000, 10-tiered wedding cake
  • $150,000 in hair and make up for the bride
  • $750,000 in catering
  • $3 million in jewelry, including a $1 million wedding band and $2 million engagement ring
  • and finally, a $50,000 bachelorette party, sponsored by Tao nightclub in Las Vegas.
Sanctity of marriage my ass!
