Beyoncé: Will Perform In Las Vegas On New Year’s Eve? [News]

“Coldplay and Jay-Z, who will be there with wife Beyonce, have each been paid up to $1 million to perform for 2500 invited guests at the Cosmopolitan hotel. Sources said the lavish opening party is a massive spend by Deutsche Bank, which bought the 2995-room property in 2008 when it was in foreclosure and spent $3.9 billion to complete it.

Andrew Fox, CEO of newyearseve.com, which sells event tickets, said: “To my knowledge, this is the biggest spend on New Year’s Eve — $25 million over the weekend for 4,000 guests.”

A Cosmopolitan rep said, “Gwyneth and Beyonce are not confirmed for any kind of performance at this point. It would be incorrect to use the number $25 million.” Continue the article after the jump.

Meanwhile, Fox said Miami’s Fontainebleau looks set to be the biggest New Year’s Eve earner, with DJ Tiesto, who is getting about $200,000, on his way to selling out 4000 tickets. Rihanna has a $250,000 deal to host at Pure at Caesars in Vegas.

Hip-hop diva Nicki Minaj is getting $75,000 to perform at Miami’s Mansion. Drake commanded a whopping $250,000 for his gig at Wall at the W Hotel South Beach. Their reps declined to comment.

Fox noted: “The stars not looking to cash in will be in warm weather destinations — St. Barts, Mexico and Fiji. The real big names are going on Paul Allen’s yacht.”
