So Obnoxious

Russian billionaire Andrei Melnichenko and his wife Aleksandra are paying Jennifer Lopez $1 million dollars to sing for 40 minutes at a joint celebration for his recent birthday and the Mrs.'s 30th this weekend.

According to the Daily Mail, JLO is being paid $600k for the performance plus $400k to cover flight, and hoity-toity hotel rooms for her and her entourage.

A source close to Miss Lopez said:
"It will be wall-to-wall billionaires in there. Andrei and Aleksandra are both very great fans of J-Lo, so Andrei put the call in and personally put the offer to her. She accepted immediately.

"She will sing for about 40 minutes - not bad money for the work."

If she really wanted to do some good she would turn around and donate the $600k to charity. No hoopla - no nothin'....yeah, not betting on it.

This is the same couple who paid a bazillion dollars for Christina Aguilera to sing at the 2005 wedding.

  1. The money that gets tossed around in this world is wild. There really doesn't have to be any world faminine or homelessness.

  2. Not worth it. I'd pay $5 to smell her but not $1 to hear her sing! LOL
