'Vanderpump Rules' News: Peter Madrigal Wants A Raise, Believes They Deserve $10,000 [VIDEO]
Peter Madrigal believes there is good reason for a Vanderpump Rules cast raise.
The Cast Of 'Vanderpump Rules' Reportedly Requested A Raise
Folllowing reports of the cast requesting Bravo bump their salary and award them with first class airline tickets, Madrigal, the manager of SUR Lounge, spoke out, revealing his thoughts on a possible raise.
"Peter Madrigal thinks he and the rest of the supporting cast are getting short changed, and he wants Lisa to DOUBLE their salary," TMZ reported on Monday. "Peter told us he doesn't care that Vanderpump flies first while everyone else is crammed in coach. But on the salary front, he thinks the ratings justify $10K an episode, not the $5K they're currently pulling in."

While the cast of Vanderpump Rules makes just $5,000 per season of the show, their predecessors, The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, make hundreds of thousands more.
Although not everyone receives the same amount, Lisa Vanderpump, Brandi Glanville and Yolanda Foster are said to be raking in $500,000, while Kyle Richards and her sister Kim are reportedly getting $450,000. Since Vanderpump Rules' ratings have been known to top that of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, one would think they deserve more than $5,000, but at the end of the day, it's up to Bravo.
Vanderpump Rules season 3 airs every Monday night at 9 p.m. on Bravo.
