Too Hot to Handle star Chloe Veitch opened up about her experience on various Netflix reality shows, exposing exactly how much she was paid to participate.
"I fell into Too Hot to Handle because I had done that modeling job I wasn’t paid for … the casting director at the shoot said, 'You would be perfect for the show I’m doing,'" Veitch, 26, said during the Monday, December 29, episode of Jason Tartick’s "Trading Secrets" podcast. "And that’s how my career rocketed."
According to Veitch—who starred on the first season of Too Hot to Handle before joining The Circle, Perfect Match and Sneaky Links: Dating After Dark—she wasn't paid for THTH.
"I’m being completely transparent with you, not once do I do it for the money," she said, adding that she doesn't remember being paid for The Circle.
At the peak of her fame, the influencer was making nearly half a million dollars a year off of brand deals, but the offers have started to slow down.
"I’ve started to come to terms that depending on your exposure and your relevance, like if you go on a show and it just comes out, your numbers are up. Your money through brand deals is going to be higher," she explained to the former Bachelorette star.

Despite acknowledging that exposure helps increase what she can charge for brand deals, Veitch will never appear on another season of Perfect Match.
"You couldn’t pay me a million dollars to do it again. It’s the Hunger Games for reality TV," she said. "It’s horrible. I love watching it, it’s great TV but I would never do it again."
