Matthew McConaughey and Camila Alves will be the latest celebs to whore out their baby for some extra cash. The couple will earn $3 million for an OK! Magazine exclusive photo shoot of newborn Levi.
I know it's just a few camera flashes and nothing the public won't eventually see during one of Matt and Camila's surf excursions, but something about selling baby photos to the tabloids is just tacky. But Matthew sure as hell ain't the only rich and famous celeb to sell his baby out. Check out my list of some of Hollywood's top baby-exploit earners:
Last but definitely not least, Brangelina. People reportedly paid Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt $4.1 million to put Shiloh on their June 2006 cover (though all over to an African charity, of course) while Pax also earned his keep ($2 million to be exact) with an April 2007 People cover.
The Bill Gates of celeb baby earners will be the Brangelina twins of course. Already, Brad and Ange have been offered between $10 and $15 million for pictures of the unborn treasures.
So much for babies being leeches on mommy and daddy's wallet!

But Matthew sure as hell ain't the only rich and famous celeb to sell his baby out. Check out my list of some of Hollywood's top baby-exploit earners:
- 1. Jennifer Lopez's March People Magazine exclusive with twins Max and Emme's earned her $6 million.
- 2. Gavin and Gwen's Kingston put $575 K in bucket after giving their first pictures to OK! Magazine
- 3. Christina Aguilera earned $2 million for People exclusive of son Max.
- 4. Nicole
Richie and Joel Madden got $1 million for selling the first Harlow
pictures to People Magazine, which was basically Nicole's sole income
for the entire year, considering she doesn't actually act or work.
- 5. Larry Birkhead got $2 million to put his greatest asset, Dannielynn, on OK!'s April '07 cover.
- 6. Bridget Moynahan racked up $100,000 for baby John to pose for OK! ('posing' being a relative term that in this case, means 'just laying there').
- 7. Jamie Lynn earned $1 million for this week's OK! Exclusive on Maddie Briann Aldridge.
- 8. A few years ago - when there was less baby-picture inflation, Sean
Preston earned Britney and K-Fed $500 K for his People Magazine cover.
Last but definitely not least, Brangelina. People reportedly paid Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt $4.1 million to put Shiloh on their June 2006 cover (though all over to an African charity, of course) while Pax also earned his keep ($2 million to be exact) with an April 2007 People cover.
