Because of the popular entertainment programme ‘the X Factor’ in 2019 moved to TV2 from the DR, said the foul-mouthed judge Thomas Culture yes to follow and continue as a judge in the program.
In the connection told a number of sources from the Danish tv-production environment to Ekstra Bladet, that the Culture in the DR was paid by about two million crowns, and that he at TV2 most likely would get even more.
When the Extra Leaf is talking with him ahead of the new season of ‘the X Factor’, which will premiere on TV2 1. January 2020, rejecting the Culture, however, that with the shift to TV2 followed a lønsstigning.
– I enjoy it (the’X Factor’, red.), and indeed, I am insanely privileged, even though my salary has been roughly the same since the ‘X Factor’ was on the DR in 2011, he says, and continues:
– There are many, have believed that I was five times so much, after I came to the TV2. It has never been on the speech, says the Culture on.

Culture has previously told Extra Bladet that he is well satisfied with his salary, but he is not a judge in the program for the sake of money.
– I do not make it here for the sake of money. I can promise you for. I do it for my children’s sake and for Denmark’s sake, he said in the context.
It is the production company BLU, which has produced the ‘X Factor’ for DR, and provides the program for TV2.
BLU’s director, Anne Brostrøm Storgaard, has previously told Extra Bladet, Culture is not exactly a cheap man to have employed.
– Thomas gets a good salary for his work on ‘the X Factor’, and it just missed. But Thomas is never greedy, and it is not the money, which has been crucial in the context of the negotiations with TV2, she explained.

Culture has negotiated his salary directly with the BLU, as so even is negotiating with the TV2.
There is no doubt that it is Thomas’ huge passion for working with the young musical talent on ‘X Factor’ and a sincere desire to be in close contact with the danes, who have been decisive, said Anne Brostrøm Storgaard.
– He is not driven by money, but by its mission to touch the danes. It is perhaps part of the secret of his great popularity, was Anne Brostrøm Storgaard.
