England rugby stars are charging fans almost £80 for personalised video messages.
Despite earning £25,000 per Test match, stars including Danny Cipriani, James Haskell and Danny Care have signed up to a website awash with reality TV stars and low-rung celebrities.
Cipriani is paid around £400,000 per year by Gloucester but charges £76 for a personal message on Cameo, where you can 'book personalized video shoutouts from your favorite people'.

James Haskell is among a number of English rugby stars using the website, called Cameo
The videos range from birthday shoutouts to good luck messages, even a message on behalf of a partner.
In one video he wishes 'JC' well on their move from Chicago to Dublin, and in another urges 'Martin' to have a good time in Las Vegas, urging him 'don't do anything I wouldn't do.'
The three videos made public on the 30-year-old's profile amount to just 17 seconds worth of content, which has pocketed him £228.
Haskell charges £29 each and has made over £1,300 from his videos, to add to the £100,000 he could earn if he appears in all four of England's autumn internationals next month.
Danny Care charges £22.80 for his videos which range from birthday to good luck messages
Joe Marler, who retired from England duty last month, charges £60 for his videos
Fly-half Care charges £22.80 for a clip while Exeter backs Henry Slade and Jack Nowell charge will set you back £30.
England's Test players are among the highest paid in the world, and fans have been charged over £100 to see their heroes host the All Blacks in November.
Joe Marler, who last month shocked the sport by announcing his international retirement, charges £60 for his eclectic messages.
On the other end of the scale, Northampton Saints prop Jamal Ford-Robinson, who describes himself as a beer connoisseur, charges a meagre £3.80
