HuffPost
“You gotta pay your dues a little bit," the actor told Variety.
One person not shocked by Pete Davidson’s $3,000-an-episode salary as a cast member on “Saturday Night Live”?
“SNL” veteran Kenan Thompson.
Thompson, who has been on the NBC comedy sketch show for two decades, recently spoke with Variety at the American Museum of Natural History gala on Thursday about pay discrepancies in the television industry.
“It’s pretty notorious that it’s more so about having the job than getting paid for the job,” Thomspon said. “You gotta pay your dues a little bit.”
Davidson revealed his surprisingly low salary in a New York Magazine video posted on Wednesday about what cast members bought with their first “SNL” paycheck.
