DJ Vlad and Elliott Wilson discussed the trend of celebrities demanding exorbitant fees for interviews. Vlad revealed that Marlon Wayans requested $40,000 plus 30% of the revenue for an interview, a demand Vlad found utterly unreasonable. He emphasized that no one would pay such a sum for an interview, stating it distorted the industry’s standards and skewed perceptions among aspiring young people. Wilson supported Vlad’s stance, shedding light on the unrealistic expectations celebrities have formed, partly influenced by inflated earning claims, like Shannon Sharpe purportedly making more from a single interview than his entire football career. Vlad underscored the inconsistency, noting that Wayans conducted numerous free interviews on major platforms such as Drink Champs and The Breakfast Club.
