Julia Roberts made $1.5 million for a 45-second commercial
I got this from ONTD: Julia Roberts in an Italian coffee commercial where she earned $1.5 million for 45 seconds.
The age demographic of ONTD definitely skews younger because they can't believe Julia Roberts is that big a star. I guess you had to be there when it was happening. She's basically the girl next door who became a huge movie star -- and there was no one else like her when she made it big. In fact, she became the highest paid film actress during her rise to fame and was known to be the only female to carry a movie by her name on the credits alone (this was during the time when everyone watched a "Schwarzenegger", "Stallone" or "Willis" movie simply because they were in it -- doesn't happen as much anymore these days). There is now a whole generation of fans who still look up to her.
