Tuesday May 22, 2007 Taiwan Leehom Wang Defeats Jolin Tsai and S.H.E: Taiwan's Top Celebrity Earner Records say that this year's top three celebrity earners of Taiwan are WANG LI HONG (Leehom Wang), CAI YI LIN (Jolin Tsai), and S.H.E. Last year in 2006 Leehom defeated ZHOU JIE LUN (Jay Chou) becoming the top earner. This year Leehom is in first place again, without a doubt. Last year Leehom's contract with Sony BMG was full. While Leehom and Sony were discussing about their new contract, rumors say that Leehom was to sign under the record label with a NT $150,000,000 salary for three years. In the end Leehom has signed under the company with that sum. With only this amount it is already several times larger than Jay Chou's earnings for the film "Golden Armor." Last year Leehom completed over 6 world tour concerts, over 5 organized miscellaneous concerts, and over 10 adverts. Adding the sum of this together it is already more than the salary for renewing the contract with Sony BMG. credits: asianfanatics.
