Twitter users were stunned to learn that Kim Kardashian is currently garnering $10,000 a tweet from advertisers. Most Twitter users were more amazed than bothered by the fact that Kardashian's Twitter page contains paid advertisements. Other users were concerned that she didn't label her sponsored tweets like Perez Hilton and other celebrity endorsers.
Kardashian's Twitter page is littered with tweets likes this, "Check out my commercial for @carlsjr...What do you think?" and "OMG!!! Bumpits! I need it! LOL." Which tweets are paid? At this time, Kardashian's Twitter page does not have any tweets labeled as sponsored. Advertising Age reported that Kardashian earns $10k per tweet from some sponsors. According to Derek Rey, the co-founder of Ad.ly, Kardashian's sponsored tweets are limited to once per day.
Tweets:
- @insertfunny, "Kim Kardashian makes $10k every time she tweets. And I lost my job today."
- @Made2shine, "nice job :) @kimkardashian RT @MorpheusMedia: Whoa, Kim Kardashian makes up to $10k per sponsored tweet through Ad.ly..."
- @cfpdx, "This disgusts me RT @iamkhayyam: Kim Kardashian Ka$hes In On Twitter - Get Paid $10K/Tweet..."
- @imnotobsessed, "Kim Kardashian gets paid $10k/ day 2 post 1 advertismnt on feed."Go buy X" or "Just tried out Y"-B careful wht U believe."
- @dino101, "I will AVOID any company that Kim Kardashian tweets about (FILE UNDER: $10K PER TWEET)"
- @viva_alexm, "WTH How does Kim Kardashian earn 10k per tweet.....<--who is paying and I WANT IN."
- @Torossian5wpr, "If Kim Kardashian Can Get $10K a Tweet, Why Can’t Twitter?"
- @benzojones, "Kim Kardashian Gets Paid $10,000 Per Tweet... My booties big! My Tweets should at least be worth $150!
UPDATE:
Derek Rey the co-founder of Ad.ly wrote to us to explain how a Twitter user can distinguish a sponsored tweet on Kim Kardashian's page. "One thing I wanted to note is that we have a very strict disclosure policy. 100% of our messages are disclosed with "(Ad)" and if the message is from us you can see "from Ad.ly network" in the small text below the Tweet." Rey stated.
Perez Hilton starts his sponsored tweets with a bold faced "SPONSORED" before the tweet; making it easy for a Twitter user to read. So, whip out the magnifying glass.
From December 20th until December 29th there were no obviously labeled tweets. After this story broke with other news agencies, one tweet with the "from Ad.ly network" appeared on Kardashian's Twitter page with the (Ad) on the 29th. Kardashian's tweets that seem like advertisements without the notation before the 29th, may simply be her genuine personal endorsement.

That's $71.43 per *character*. Imagine if she wrote a book.
With 2.7 million followers, who is still amazed? Where ever you get people together, real or virtual, there's money to be made.

Waw..., how can I get the same...?
BUDI R.
From the Federal Trade Commission website:
<I>The revised Guides also make it clear that celebrities have a duty to disclose their relationships with advertisers when making endorsements outside the context of traditional ads, such as on talk shows or in social media.</i>
Someone needs to report that skank for not disclosing her sponsored tweets.
"Someone needs to report that skank for not disclosing her sponsored tweets."
You don't think laws are enforced for the rich and famous, do you? [see: Hilton, Paris, cocaine]
Considering that it's up to $11,000 for each clear FTC violation she and her sponsors are racking up, I'd say that's a fair price.
Mike Abundo you're assuming she can string together > 140 characters.
Give me a break. I'm amazed that so many losers care what she has to say at any given moment instead of living in their own life.
I still am perplexed at what exactly it is that she does or what her talent is.
She can't act. She can't sing. And she's definitely not splitting atoms.
A boiled egg has more personality than this "twit", and can dance better too.
Who is this woman and why hasn't the FTC crushed her skull with legal documents?
Well composed by you. Tx for the info that I learned from you post.
who gets upset about these things? If you were offered 10k per tweet, you would take that deal, no questions asked. As far as her not having a "talent", she's pretty and is the face of a lot of products...hum...that sounds a lot like a model, no? Or have we all forgotten that models get paid for nothing more than being pretty...Jezz guys, can she just make her money?
no... nothing more than SAD!
Disgusting! Do you know how much other people make for this or for making a fast food commercial, baking cupcakes(lol), spreading their legs? This family is a bunch of MONSTERS AND MUST BE STOPPED RIGHT AWAY! Keep them all out of the public eye! UUuuuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! I HATE THEM!!!!
this is so lame...who in their right mind actually give a $*** what this idiot has to say?? i refuse to support any untalented, useless, sex-tape-made, INSIGNIFICANT woman like kim k...
and no "Mia"... people arent upset that she took the offer of 10k per tweet... people are annoyed that this idiot with NO TALENT can become so famous and make so much money for ABSOLUTELY NOTHING... there is no reason why this girl should be famous... and if it wasnt for her father being who he is and for her family having so much money and for her stupid sex-tape.. she would NOT be a so called "model".... she is only a "model" because of her celebrity status.. or else you wouldnt see that chicks face on anything BUT A BLACK MANS D***
i really wanna understand the 2.7 million people who follow this KarTRASHian girl... honestly.. why do other country's hate americans and think of us as a nation with no values or moral.... geeeeeeeee... maybe its because we idolize good for nothing people like kim kartrashian.. and make her famous for have a giant a** and no other talent...
No need to be jealous people,its so unattractive.If someone offered me 10k a tweet in this economy,id take it.She s beautiful and shes obviously smart enough to make money.Im actually impressed,make ur money Kim,just dont sell your soul for it.
you my favorite star i would die for you i know and you know, that i am meant to be a part of your family. i watch your show everyday even if its a rerun.if i see you cry i would start to cry because i hate to see you, kourtney,khloe, ms.khris and the twins cry. i would love to see you in real life.i think it great that you living your life.
Hi kim, kourtney, khloe and twins i hope i meet yall in real life and you'll find me and keep me for ever i would love to have you as a big sister you look very fun and one more thing I LOVE YOU KIM KARDASHIAN!!!!!!!!!!! some people are mad because (probaly) they dont make that much money as you
When your amazingly beautiful and millions of people feel the same way... Then you will make MAD money. Maybe not the most talented... But undeniably gorgeous! Don't get your panties in a bunch just because your looking in the mirror trying to figure out what is staring back at you!
That's what I call ... "EASY MONEY'' ... mu- ha-ha-ha-ha
Most amazed that this person
