VARIETY TV shows perhaps offer the most lucrative and easiest jobs for celebrities in China.

Insiders have revealed that there are several categories of celebrities and these determine how much they earn. For example, those in the so-called S-class are paid around 5mil yuan (RM3mil) per episode for shooting reality TV shows, while an A-class star can command 20mil yuan (RM12mil).
