What Kid Stars Make

(Hollywood Reporter) — "Two and a Half Men's" Angus T. Jones, 16, who plays Charlie Sheen's nephew, has inked a $300,000-per-episode contract, according to TMZ, who examined court papers filed on his behalf in Los Angeles Superior Court as he's a minor. This makes Jones — who will earn, at a minimum, $7.8 million over the next two seasons plus a $500,000 signing bonus — the highest-paid child TV star.



Other kids who earn big: Miranda Cosgrove, who makes $180,000 per episode of her Nickelodeon hit "iCarly"; Selena Gomez, with $25,000 per episode of her Disney Channel show "Wizards of Waverly Place"; and Dylan and Cole Sprouse, who reportedly earn $20,000 per episode of Disney Channel's "The Suite Life."

Miley Cyrus earned $15,000 per episode of "Hannah Montana" on the Disney Channel, according to the Post. But Parade magazine reports she made $18.2 million in 2008 thanks to sold-out concerts and merchandising deals. People says she was slated to sell $1 billion in Hannah-related merchandise.
