The Maytag Man: $1 Million

In 2014, Colin Ferguson earned a cool $1 million a year for being the face of a company known and loved across the U.S. The wildly private actor, who likes to keep his real life out of the public eye as much as possible, has also landed a string of extra jobs thanks to his popularity, including starring in supporting roles in Eureka, Vampire Diaries and Then Came You. Other projects and jobs aside, many fans simply refer to him as the Maytag Man, which will forever be a pivotal turning point in his career. In more recent years, Colin has seemingly enjoyed keeping a low profile, starring in a Lifetime Christmas Movie with Lori Loughlan in 2016 and not much else. We’re sure that the Maytag money won’t be drying up anytime soon.

The Wendy’s Girl: $3 million

Morgan Smith-Goodwin looks familiar to a lot of people because a lot of people love Wendy’s. The restaurant chain is well known for its commercials, most notoriously so for the “freckled girl” spots that have aired over the years. An actress by trade, Morgan studied in Alabama, moving to New York to pursue her dream after graduation. Starring in some off-broadway roles, she eventually found her meal ticket with bigger roles thanks to landing Wendy’s commercials. Few people know that the beautiful star is actually a blonde in real life, and she has to dye her hair red whenever she is called to a Wendy’s shoot. For $3 million, we’d even shave our heads if we had to.
