Chelsea Clinton is regularly paid sums as high as $75,000 to speak at events on behalf of the Clinton Foundation, it was revealed today.
A spokesperson for Clinton told the New York Times that 'the majority of Chelseas speeches are unpaid.' But when she is paid, the spokesperson, Kamyl Bazbaz, said, '100 percent of the fees are remitted directly to the foundation.'
The youngest member of the Clinton family doesn't attract as much cash for her speeches as her high-profile parents, who frequently charge $200,000 or more per appearance, but she is paid at a significantly higher rate than other political figures.
The New York Times estimates that former Florida Governor Jeb Bush makes $50,000 a speech, and the news organization said former secretaries of state Colin Powell and Madeleine Albright are known to charge roughly the same amount.

Jaysus she is hideous!
Total scandal but totally expected. The “Clinton Foundation” funnels money to - the Clintons.
Damn peculiar. Chelsea isn’t paid by the groups she addresses, but by the Clinton slush fund. That is totally crooked.
Hilary never could keep her hand out of the cookie jar.
Lawdy Lawdy!
“Chelsea Clinton is regularly paid sums as high as $75,000 to speak at events on behalf of the Clinton Foundation”
She also has a $600,000 per year no show “job” with NBC. She also had a high paying no show “job” on Wall Street.
Spokesperson, Kamyl Bazbaz...I see that just like mom, Chelsea also has a thing for middle eastern staff help.
I blame the people who pay her and who go listen to her.
Having your name on a foundation gets you around 15% of a multi-billion dollar foundation. Most of it off shore and tax free.
Pray America wakes up
Why would anyone pay one cent to hear that ugly rug rodent speak.
No; it says the fees for her speaking on behalf of the Foundation are remitted directly to the foundation, rather than passing through her hands.
If she was paid, then donated all of it, it would be taxable income to her, and only partially deductible.
I had to read it twice myself.
What is left out is what the Foundation pays her to speak on its behalf.
Do you think Bill ever resents having to pass Webb Hubble’s daughter off as his own? The pre-surgery pics are just undeniable.
Who would pay to see her?
DEFINITELY has mommy’s hips and cankles!
Thanks for the correction.
Kamyl is a popular name amongst the Amish I belive.
