THE Only Way Is Essex stars are facing the sack after demanding more money from TV bosses.
Cast members, who include Mark Wright, 24, James “Arg” Argent, 23, Amy Childs, 20, and Sam Faiers, 20, are currently paid just £50 a day.
The only way they are making any decent money is through nightclub appearances, product endorsements and fashion and magazines deals.
They are all raking in thousands thanks to their new-found fame.
However, after filming two series of the ITV2 show, the stars have had enough.
Some have told producers that they should get the same salaries as soap stars.
That would see their basic wages soar to anything from £70,000 to £150,000 a year.

Of course the "cast" aren't worth more than £50 per day as individuals, but the series has proved to be a "cult" success for the broadcaster, so some wort of "reward" would seem to be in order, since most of the "cast" will only have fleeting "fame" ..... ;)
