Miranda Cosgrove Made More Money From iCarly Than You Think

Publish date: 2024-05-04

So what was Miranda Cosgrove's iCarly salary? According to the New York Post, by 2010, the actor was earning a whopping $180,000 per episode. That makes her the second-highest-paid child actor of all time, per INSIDER, right behind Two and a Half Men's Angus T. Jones, who was making $250,000 per episode at the same time. Wow! That easily nets her $1 million-plus per season. It's no wonder that, according to Celebrity Net Worth, she is worth $10 million today. In 2014, at the young age of 19, Cosgrove even purchased a house in Los Angeles, Calif. for $2.65 million, per the Daily News, that spanned 3,000 square feet. 

That said, it hasn't been all smooth sailing for the once-huge star. In 2011, Cosgrove suffered a broken ankle in a bus accident in Illinois. She claimed the accident deeply impacted her career. As TMZ wrote, the crash, "derailed 25 booked concerts," which would have brought the burgeoning pop singer, "nearly $400,000." They added, "Miranda says she lost another $560K in future shows," as well as yet another $400,000 due to a dropped Neutrogena contract. The financial losses reportedly totaled $2.5 million. Since Cosgrove's biggest credit to date is still iCarly, it's safe to say that the crash may have actually impacted things. Though questionable career decisions like her failure-to-launch pop career and 2015 critical flop The Intruders didn't help. 

Here's hoping the 2021 iCarly reboot helps Cosgrove regain her momentum!
