The Red Robin Lady: $50 249
The so-called ‘Red Robin Lady’ has been gracing our screens since the 90’s, and will be a familiar actress to many baby boomers and millennials. Melanie Paxson may have gained fame for her appearance in the series of commercials for Gladeware, but as it turns out she would solidify this momentum by starring in roles on popular series like The Drew Carey Show, Kitchen Confidential and Happy Family. Born in Illinois, the actress remembers her time as the ‘Red Robin Lady’ fondly, especially as it came with a paycheck of over $50 000. These days, she is enjoying motherhood, still starring in guest spots on television, as well as supporting her husband in his sandwich and pie business in Los Angeles. Talk about a superwoman!

The “Can You Hear Me Now?” Guy: $9 Million
Verizon is one of the best mobile providers in America, and over the years their commercials and popular catchphrases have caught the attention of millions around the county. The company first stumbled onto Paul Marcelli, the star of the “Can You Hear Me Now?” catchphrase, during a casting call where he showcased a particular spark and charisma. Over the next ten years, he would be a regular feature in their ad campaigns, bagging him nearly $10 million in the process. In 2016, he decided to sign a new deal with Print, changing the catchphrase to “Can You Hear That?”. This caused a viral frenzy. Needless to say, this actor is well paid, and still pursues other roles, but sometimes we just have to be thankful for that moment of lightning, even if it only comes once in our lives.
