I don't think so. That figure probably originated in an Australian article, and their dollars are about 3x American dollars. That would make it about $12.6 million American, or $4.2 per campaign, which is about the market rate for celebrity fashion campaigns.

I heard it on US TV this am. Would they use Australian dollars when it is about a US actress and ad???

Sadly, the state of entertainment journalism is such that most of the stuff you hear on TV/radio is just cribbed from articles on the 'net, and nobody does any fact-checking. There are lots of Australian publications they might have gotten it from--"The Age" is always doing little celebrity stories--and didn't realize that there's a difference between US and Australian dollars. It's happened many times.

I think you meant to say that one Australian dollar is one-third of a greenback. In which case - How. Insulting. The current exchange rate due to a weak greenback is USD0.78=AUD1.00. Even if she got AUD38 million it still translates to a healthy USD29.5 million. In terms of fact checking I've noticed that the SMH and the Age also quotes the US amount in brackets if it relates to a US story e.g. how much Kidman got paid for her Chanel "movie".
Whatever the amount, good for her - I love SJP!

In any case, the figure is wrong. Kidman made less than $8 million for her Chanel campaign, and there was a big hubbub because that is the most anyone has ever been paid for one fashion campaign. SJP certainly isn't getting $12.6 million per campaign.

I like SJP, but her chin and the wart on her chin creeps me out. She was Okay in SATC.

I assumed the dark roots she frequently sported on SatC was some daring bit of swank that I was just too fashion-challenged to understand.
I mean, why else else would they pay so much attention to other aspects of her look while ignoring that?
