Amanda Beard Is Rich And Still Smoldering Hot
Training to be an Olympic swimmer sure doesn’t pay the bills (a lot like blogging, no?), but being a smoking hot medlaist does afford some opportunities to make a little coin.
According an article in Smart Money, Amanda Beard is working towards building a $100 million business empire over the next three years, and she’s off to a pretty good start. In addition to speaking engagements, sponsorships from Red Bull and Penta Water, and licensing her name and image for all manner of products, she has a $1 million contract to model swimsuits in print ads for Spedo. Sweet gig.
Then of course there was the cover and spread in Playboy magazine. (See NSFW pics here.) She won’t say how much that brought in, but the people at Smart Money are guessing it was at least $1 million. Oh, and she’s signed on to do beer commercials. I’m guessing it’ll be for something light or otherwise undrinkable, but I’m sure we’ll all enjoy the ads a plenty.
