Berine Mac casting, I wonder how much he makes per cameo?

Bernie Mac cameo two of the summer's biggest movies in Transformers and Ocean's Thirteen, with a screentime that probably amounted to around three minutes. He probably made at least the average American's annual salary for the two movies combined right? Probably more. Probably a lot more. Now, I'm never one to begrudge actors their pay day but ya know seven days work (which is probably what all that amounted too) is hardly a nine to five, 24/7 job. Bernie, I know you won't be reading this site but there's a chance one of your reps might be who track such stories... how much do you make per appearance in a cameo like this? Let us know man, no matter how high it is we will respect you for letting us know. The Hollywood Reporter have the scoop that Mac will have small role in Old Dogs, yes that John Travolta/Robin Williams buddy comedy movie I keep bringing up even though I have zero interest in seeing it. The movie follows the guys as they find themselves in charge of two 7 year old twins. In Dogs, Mac will play the ridiculous sounding Johnny Lunchbox, a puppeteer who is described as a mix between Elvis, Bono and the Beatles of children's entertainment. Can you see where this is going? Travolta and Williams struggle to keep kid's interest. They call up this puppeteer. Mac comes in wearing a ridiculous outfit and gives his usual comedic performance. Things go wrong, Mac is booted out and his small role is completed. Another nice pay day.
