Do celebs get paid too much?

by Ronita Dutta

With people up and down the country struggling to make ends meet, do you resent the multi-million pound salaries many celebrities earn?

TV presenter Jonathan Ross is reported to earn a staggering £6m a year, while, stateside, Oprah Winfrey allegedly takes home the paltry annual salary of £145m. That's £580,000 a day - more than most of us could ever hope to make over the course of our working lives!

Meanwhile, we are constantly being told that our pensions are worthless, fuel and food bills are rising and we face increased risk of losing our jobs.

Bearing all this in mind, do you find it tough to hear about celebs taking home 'silly money', while the rest of us tighten our belts in anticipation of the great depression, or do you think celebrity wages are entirely justified?
