Busy
Philipps admitted
via an Instagram Story video that she makes more money now from sponsored
Instagram posts than she does acting.

"I'm
not above it, guys," the Vice Principals actress said in a video
posted to her account on Thursday, April 27.
"I just only choose things
that I genuinely like and, like, would want to partner with, like, for
instance, my Michaels [craft store] partnership, which, you know, is my
favorite thing of all time. And I'm doing one next week, I think, that feels
like me."
Philipps
understands that celebs lose followers after posting “#sponcon,” but even she
admits that “we all gotta make [money.]”
"But,
like, yeah, I mean, unless it was like, a billion dollars, I probably wouldn't
do something random and weird that people would be like, 'Lame,' 'Busy Philipps
sells out,’” she explained in her video.
“But, you know, I gotta be honest with
you, I didn't make a ton of money as an actor last year. I made more of my
money doing that kind of stuff, like the partnerships with brands."

In her
defense, she explained that as TV actors, they’re “making a product so that
networks can sell ad space,” which is essentially, in turn, what sponsored
Instagram posts have become.
Philipps is
married to screenwriter Marc Silverstein.
