Vanna White makes partial deal for ‘Wheel of Fortune’: ‘It’s gonna get ugly’

nypost.com:

“lawyered up” White, 66, has reportedly negotiated her salary deal with “Wheel of Fortune” — but only for the celebrity competition, not the daily syndicated show.According to TMZ, Sony Pictures has made it clear that they’re not going to be flexible when it comes to her demands.White’s lawyer, Bryan Friedman, negotiated the deal for “Celebrity Wheel of Fortune,” sources told the outlet.

The letter-turner’s gig on “Celebrity” was reportedly up, while she still has one more year in her contract for syndication, so Friedman addressed the more urgent matter to start.The negotiations for White’s salary for the syndicated show have been put on pause due to the writers’ strike.It’s previously been reported that White wanted to make at least half of what Pat Sajak has been making, which Friedman allegedly relayed to Sony, but they wouldn’t disclose how much Sajak makes for “Celebrity WoF.”TMZ claims that Sajak, 76, makes just upward of $400,000 per episode for the celebrity competition, while White settled for $100,000 per episode in her new deal — a “meaningful bump” from her previous contract.The outlet previously confirmed that White’s salary is $3 million a year — and that she hasn’t gotten a single pay increase for the last 18 years.
