Sheila Says: Judge Judy Makes How Much?
You won’t believe how much Judge Judy makes for her courtroom show…… A nice $47 million. That’s more than Big Bang Theory’s Kaley Cuoco and Mondern Family’s Sofia Vergara! Both are the highest paid actresses on tv, earning about $44 million. Sofia even has a Cover Girl endorsement, but it’s still not as lucrative as being a TV Judge with book deals.
