It's a tough life being a Z-list celebrity. In between showbiz parties and tanning sessions, there's always the tricky business of trying to find yourself an easy but lucrative little earner to keep you in the manner to which you're accustomed.

That's where the weird and wonderful world of celebreality TV comes in. If you're desperate enough to eat witchetty grubs in the jungle or bare it all on Love Island, there's a mint to be made in fees, book and magazine deals and photo shoots.

And let's not forget the possibility of offers for more shows, and - if you really make it - a bestselling autobiography and even the obligatory exercise video.

Take a stroll through our gallery of the small-time stars who hit the jackpot and made it all the way onto the celebreality rich list.
