Perhaps the nearly year-long break between seasons of Breaking Bad has finally gotten to Aaron Paul. Either that, or he just likes that being famous means you can get paid thousands of dollars to drink eggnog at some millionaire's Christmas party in Arizona. Paul -- who won an Emmy for his Bad performance over the summer -- was given $16,000 by entrepreneur Jason Hope to attend his lavish Christmas party, alongside fellow compensated guests like Snooki ($17,500) and Bruce Jenner ($15,000).

We’d like to sit down with millionaire Jason Hope and advise him about how to spend his millions. For someone with so much money, brain cells seem to be less abundant. The dude threw a fancy pants Christmas party and paid Ludacris $100,000 to perform for 45 minutes. Which is cool y’know…we love Luda. But he just made some insane cash off this Jason guy!

Snooki - $17,500 Lo Bosworth and Stephanie Pratt - $12,500 each...
