Nickelodeon Fires Dora

Nickelodeon has fired the 14 year old girl who is the voice of Dora on their popular chilren's cartoon series. The girl has countered with a lawsuit claiming she is owed millions for extra recording sessions and promotional work. She also wants part of the $11 billion dollars generated through merchandise sales. She reports she was paid $5,115 an episode and $40 an appearance when promoting the show. The network says her contract was negotiated for her when it was signed and her voice has changed as she aged. I don't blame her for wanting to get more, but c'mon $5,000 an episode for voice work. If that was me, I would gladly take that money, and move on to be the voice of something else with a better contract. Seems to me that work pays pretty well.
