Alison Hammond has reportedly ‘topped the celebrity panto rich list with her huge earnings.’
The This Morning host, 49, is currently playing the Magical Mermaid in Peter Pan as she returns to Birmingham Hippodrome for a second year.
According to a new report from The Sun, she is raking in a whopping £195,000 for her 65 show stint this festive period.
Elsewhere, Vernon Kay is making around £190,000 in his role as Aladdin at Wycombe’s Swan Theatre.
Scott Mills is earning the same for his stint as Mayor Mills in Jack and the Beanstalk in Swansea.
A source told the publication: ‘Panto may be all fun and games for audiences but behind the scenes it’s dog eat dog.’

They added: ‘Agents are notoriously particular about where their client’s name is on the poster and how big the font is as it reflects the earnings. Industry wide it’s known if you’re in the top left you are the highest paid star.’
MailOnline has contacted Alison Hammond’s representative for comment.
Alison risked being pulled off air with her ‘naughty’ pantomime innuendos live on Capital Breakfast last week – and asked the presenters if they could ‘cut’ some of it.
The This Morning star joined hosts Jordan North, Chris Stark, and Sian Welby where she read out some very risky punchlines as part of a game.
Sian explained: ‘Okay. These are very modern pantomimes. We’ve written them, you’re going to star in them, and you’re always going to have the last line, okay Alison?
‘So, we will hand you your notes, your script. You can take all the glory, all the punchlines. Whenever you’re ready, guys.’
Doing Aladdin first, Sian took on the role of narrator as she said: ‘Here we go. I’m going to be the narrator.
‘Hoping to save up some money for an around the world cruise next year, and with no husband to cover the cost, Widow Twankey had decided to put her cave up on Airbnb.
‘It was going well, because her first holidaymakers Aladdin and friend Jason were at the door.’

The show will run throughout December to February
Pretending to be Aladdin, Jordan quipped: ‘Oh Jason, doesn’t this look lovely? Just like the photos in the ad’ and Chris.
Acting as the character Jason, chimed in with: ‘I’m really liking what they’ve done with the place – some lovely stonework, and it’s amazing that they could host us so last minute.’
Taking on the role of Widow Twankey in the pretend pantomine, Alison read out her cheeky line: ‘Oh, well what do we have here? Come inside, boys. Oh, it’s been a while since I’ve had Aladdin in my cave!’
However, she burst into laughter and exclaimed: ‘Hahaha! That’s so naughty! Oh God, I’m not supposed to laugh am I?’
‘Nope, straight face!’ insisted Sian, but Alison demanded: ‘Can you cut this in?’
Trying to move on, the presenter continued: ‘We’re live, Alison. We can’t cut anything in. Anyway, here we go, panto two!’
This time being the narrator, Jordan said: ‘Panto number two, Cinderella with a bit of a modern twist.
‘As all the VIPs of the kingdom were heading into the palace, Cinderella’s ugly sisters – tired of people ghosting them on Tinder – decided to start up a convo with Prince Charming early doors. And well, they were already impressed by his hosting skills.’
Pretending to be an ugly sister, Sian read: ‘Oh Prince charming, you do know how to throw a party,’ before Chris added: ‘That’s very kind of you. I owe all of this to my brilliant event planner.’
Reading out her second innuendo, Alison quipped: ‘Oh, handsome and humble. What a catch! Your Royal Highness, I must say, your balls just keep getting bigger!’
Keeping her composure this time, the This Morning host laughed: ‘That was good, weren’t it? I didn’t laugh… That was naughty.’
For panto number three, the hosts and Alison re-enacted a modern version of Dick Whittington.
‘Oh. I’m already laughing on the inside,’ said Alison, trying to keep herself together.

As the narrator, Chris read: ‘Bored of the long commute to London and looking for a new adventure, Dick Whittington was over the moon when he got the call to go on Love Island.
‘But it turns out that Dick was a bit of a lothario, and he couldn’t help himself when the Casa Amor girls arrived.’
Pretending to be Maya Jama, Sian joked: ‘Now Chloe, it’s time to find out it Dick will be re-entering the villa alone or if his head had been turned. Dick, you’ve returned with one of the new girls… Anything to say for yourself?’
Jordan read: ‘Maya, what can I say? Casa got the better of me, but she’s well fit, isn’t she?’ with Sian asking: ‘Chloe, what do you make of the decision?’
Alison, who played the role of Chloe this time, quipped: ‘I don’t know who she thinks she is, but she’s got five seconds to take her hands off my Dick! Hahaha! That’s so naughty!’
