express.co.uk

Piers Morgan claims he is the highest-paid actor in Hollywood based on his hourly pay. He made a 22-second cameo in a film in 2012, which continues to earn him residuals. Last month, he received $789.68 for that brief appearance. Morgan has appeared in nine major films, playing roles that mirror his own persona. He has acted alongside stars like Denzel Washington, Kevin Costner, and Brad Pitt. He jokes that since he spends very little time on screen, he must be the highest-paid movie star per second. He shared his story with actress Dame Joan Collins, reflecting on his past as a showbiz journalist. Morgan has mingled with many celebrities over the years, including Madonna and David Bowie, often showcasing his connections. Despite some past drama with former President Donald Trump, Morgan has expressed interest in interviewing Trump and Elon Musk together. He believes such an interview could greatly benefit his Uncensored YouTube channel. Morgan’s channel is gaining traction, with his videos attracting millions of views. He boasts that his viewership numbers are among the highest in the news and interview category, rivaled only by Joe Rogan.
