On May 31, 2023, Daniel Larson created a Cameo page .
After World Of T Shirts made a page, Daniel fans commented that he should do the same, and eventually Daniel, wanting the extra income, posted about it on his YouTube community page then created the account.
Overview
Cameo is a website where you can pay celebrities to say (largely) whatever you want, usually for between 10 to 50 ish dollars. After Daniel’s enemies Michael Quinn and Joshua Block created pages, members of R/Daniellarson began encouraging Daniel to make one, stating it would make him a lot of money.
Pricing
“ | He’s retarded. If he could look past his greed and understand if he made the price 5-10 bucks, he’d actually make money. | ” |
When this article was created on June 1, 2023, it was $30 to have a custom video created and $3 to message Daniel.
It started at $20.99, went up to 24.99, then to 59.99, then reportedly to as high as $85. Once no one bought those, the price was lowered again.
On June 16, 2023, Daniel raised the price to $50 stating on his YouTube community page: "I just had to update the minimum amount for cameos because most have been complete nonsense"[1]. Later, on June 18th, Daniel raised it by tenfold- to $500 for a personal cameo. Again giving an explanation on his community page: "I just had to change the price of the cameos due to the current situation and legal crap" [2] There is also a $99 booking fee- bringing it to almost $600 to have Daniel do one. Later on the 18th, it was increased even more to $830 with that same $99 fee- almost a thousand dollars for a cameo. Even later that night, it went up to $1,069, then slightly back down to $900. Adding the booking fee, $999 to book a video.[3] If brings the price to at least 10 dollars then we would actually make money.
Results
Finances
Daniel has actually made a significant amount of money on it. There are 42 current verified reviews, and considering the prices have been much higher and lower, I will go forth with the conservative assumption that everyone paid $30 and everyone that bought it left a review (this is unlikely). Using these conservative assumptions, I can assume Daniel has made at least $1260 on Cameo alone. Once you throw in the $3 messages and the fact that most likely not everyone that bought left a review, Daniel has probably made well over $1300 in Cameo sales.
On June 16, 2023 Daniel uploaded a video to YouTube where he announced that he had made enough money to pay for more studio sessions.[4] Considering the last few cost somewhere in the region of $2,000, we can assume our estimate is very conservative.
Cameo Response
Despite the fact that numberous people, including Flexburger, reached out to Cameo to try to get him banned, Cameo has said that Daniel has not broken their terms of service and as such will continue to be welcome on their platform.
Other
Since the beginning of the Cameo arc, Daniel has not been posting his cashapp as much on his YouTube or TikTok. He is likely more flush now with cash, spending more money on things like quesadillas, alcoholic drinks, and beer as well.
