Palin’s $7 million book deal?
Now that McCains failed run is over, the real story of who the star of the ticket is coming out….potentially in $7M book deal according to estimates….
Just how much could the Alaska governor make from putting pen to paper? About $7 million, according to some estimates.
Apparently prospective publishers must consider Palin to be the upcoming star of the GOP if they are willing to shell out that kind of cash.
As if there wasn’t enough proof already that Palin has achieved full pop-culture phenom status, consider this: Paparazzi photos of the governor have surfaced.
In the photos, which have popped up online, Palin is pictured lounging poolside (in T-shirt and shorts) doing, well, nothing.
“Even photos of her of her just sitting there, but looking like a normal person, could go for solid five-figure sums,” says one magazine editor.
Palin was on the scene for only a couple of months and can already command that kind of coin. Bill Clinton’s deal after his presidency was over was for only $10M.
“Bill Clinton made more than $10 million when he signed his deal in 2001 and that was the most for a former president,” says the source. “Sarah brings something different to the table — there is so much curiosity surrounding her and her life. If they move fast and get this thing on shelves, then a $7 million advance could be worth it.”
