Scarlett doesn't get out of bed for less than $18k

Does that title make any sense? Anyway, it seems Scarlett was briefly considering taking a role in a Lloyd-Webber musical on the West End stage. The Sound of Music, actually. And 'her people' were asking $18,000 per week, plus two backstage assistants at all times. Back in the day, wasn't it $10,000 that one required before one got out of bed in the morning? Of course, the article points out that you'd be getting Scarlett for a bargain at $18k a week. For a song, even.
