Highest paid Thai actors for 2012


Photobucket
Nadech “Barry” Kugimiya is ranked one of the highest paid Thai actors of 2012. The first half of 2012, he has made 70 million baht ($2.2 million USD)–interesting enough he is the youngest on the list.

The rankings:
1. Nadech Kugimiya-70 million baht
2. Ken Theeradeth-40 million baht ($1,257,070.98 USD)
3. Dome Pakorn Lum-40 million baht
4. ‘Pae’ Arak Amornsuppasiri-25 million baht ($785,669.23 USD)
5. Ananda Everingham-20 million baht ($628,535.39 USD)

Nothing has really changed for the actresses, ‘Aum’ Patcharapa Chaichuea is still the highest paid Thai actress. When it comes to episodes per lakorn, I have learned that Ch7 actresses get paid more per episode than Ch3 actresses because Ch3 actors get a monthly salary.

‘Chompoo’ Araya Hagate and Ploy Chermarn may make far less per episode (75,000 baht) than Aum Patcharapa (150,000 baht per episode), but they get a security of a monthly salary where as Aum does not.

Tono apologizes to Jui on behalf of his fans

You have to wonder about some of these fans, do they have their heads screwed on right.

Some of “Tono” Pakin Kumvilaisak’s fanatical fans have been harassing Jui Warattaya online because she has a dating rumor with Tono. At the 4th annual event for Levi jeans,  the ‘Levi’s SWAP Jeans’ campaign, Tono apologized on behalf of his fans to Jui. He didn’t know.

‘I didn’t know, I do have to apologize whether it be the group cheering for us or my fanclub who has made her upset. I want to tell everyone whether on twitter or online, you don’t see each other’s faces, it is easy to insult someone. But I think you shouldn’t do that. Stop. I think and believe that majority of my fanclub members are not like that. As for some who believe that I am secretly dating Jui, it’s NOT true. We are just working together, we are friends, we have known each other since we did a photo-shoot together. Really nothing has developed since then. As for the future, I don’t think that will happen either. It’s not like she is NOT my type or anything like that. If we worked together and started to fall in love in the future, I can’t answer that.  You have to differeniate. Just because we are the pra’nang (leading couple) we have to love each other in order to play well together. I don’t have to love a celebrity. I can love a normal person. At the beginning when the news came out, I talked to her. I was concerned, we just started to work together. I think she understands. This is not my first news, I have news with everyone I have worked with. It is a very normal thing.’

They want a DNA test for young Teekayu and Film wants his name out of a document claiming he is the father. He accuses Annie of falsifying his name on the certificate and is suing her to have it removed.
