Top 5 New Gold Diggers

new gold diggers
They know how to make a dollar out of fifty cents. Please give them a warm welcome.

Gold diggers, like pop stars and iPhones, must constantly adapt to an ever-changing environment. It's a cruel and competitive world, money is sparse and not every young opportunist with visions of easy cash dancing in their head is going to score their pay day. Or the cover of Us Weekly for that matter. Even if they makes us sigh and yearn for the good, old days of K-Fed, or the classic stylings of Anna Nicole Smith, let's give this new crop credit where credit is due. Money, money money!!!

1.) Gretchen Rossi: The ladies from The Real Housewives of Orange County just didn't know what to do with themselves when the young, taut Gretchen appeared with her ailing, filthy rich "fiance" Jeff on season two. Their lives were a celebration of crude opposites—Gretchen was loud and drunk in Vegas, Jeff faded into various hospitals. When Jeff kicked the bucket shortly after the season ended, Gretchen swore on her Mystic Tan lines that he didn't really leave her that much. She wasn't with him for money, after all. So imagine our amusement when TMZ.com reported yesterday that Gretchen skipped away with a cool $2.5 million for all her hard work.

2.) Jesus Luz: It was love at first towel drop when 22-year-old Jesus Luz draped his naked body on the recently divorced 50-year-old Madonna during a W magazine photoshoot. While most bobble-headed models would've text messaged their friends with a "ZOMG" and hailed a cab downtown, Luz stuck around, played Kaballah and kissed a few adoptive babies. Fast forward a few months, and BAM, guess who's taking romantic gondola rides, hanging at Vanity Fair parties and scoring plum modeling gigs? That's right.

3.) Hailey Glassman: Glassman is by no means the polished Ivana Trump of your mother's era. Nor is she even the C-class, faux-sophisticated bar fly cozying up to the CEO's at a swank watering hole. Glassman ushers in a new era of Gold Digger: The Reality Television Star Chaser. Unlike celebrities, reality stars aren't even necessarily attractive to the general public. Glassman—the daughter of a surgeon—managed to beguile Jon while his current wife, Kate, was getting a tummy tuck. How's that for romance! While we wouldn't place Jon into the uber-high roller category, homeboy does earn six figures an episode, which (get the barf bags ready!) equals to a millionaire's tax return.
