The GoDaddy Guy: $900 000

If you’ve never seen a GoDaddy advertisement on YouTube, you probably haven’t spent that much time on the app. On somewhat of a larger scale, the web hosting company enlisted the help of little known actor Jesse Heiman for a commercial which was first aired during Super Bowl XLVII. In the ad, Jesse gets to share a passionate kiss with supermodel Bar Rafaeli, and viewers lapped it all up. Earning a whopping $900 000 for his involvement, his paychecks for other appearances are somewhat more feeble in comparison. With small roles in American Pie 2, NCIS and a Will Farrel movie called Old School, he wrapped up his small-screen appearances in 2014 after being on an episode of Criminal Minds. We’re sure that the GoDaddy fee is still going a long way towards giving him the life that he’s always imagined living.

The InVinceable Guy: $2 Million

ShamWow’s ‘Invincible’ Guy is well known across American homes. The company, which sells towels that are said to hold ten times their weight in liquid, needed a quirky advertising campaign to help improve the overall sales of their unique product. Few people know that Vince Offer, who stars in these commercials, also writes, produces and owns them. This comes down to his career as a writer, which he takes very seriously, even going so far as to produce his own feature film in 1999, which didn’t quite get off the ground. Aside from that failure, he walked away with a pretty paycheck of $2 million for his involvement in these ad campaigns, some of which he spent on Eminem albums and merchandise (he’s a fan, apparently).
