Your Fave Celebs Charge WHAT For An Appearance?
Jul 26 | by YBF

We all know artists don’t make much money from albums anymore, so they have to make their money someway right? Find out what your favorite celeb charges (and barely charge) for an appearance when you read on…
Celebs are now requesting ridiculous amounts of money to make public appearances these days. Kid Cudi charges a whooping $55,000 (really?) for an appearance, Nicki Minaj needs $35,000 to spit her bubblegum raps on the mic and The O Jays want at least $80,000 for some oldies but goodies.

Jeezy won’t step foot anywhere unless he’s getting $60,000 PLUS travel expenses. And one of the highest paid celebs for club appearances is T.I.. You need just a minor $110,000 to guarantee the KING will be in attendance.

If you’re in the mood for random non-words and sounds thrown together and put over a beat, Waka Flocka charges $22,000. Lol Seriously.

You only need $5,000 to “Sponsor” R&B underdog Teairra Mari for an event.

Mystikal needs between $11,000-$16,000 to finish paying Uncle Sam for his tax evasion misdemeanors. That’s asking a lot seeing that Mystikal’s last album came out in 2001.

Reality TV/hip-hop newcomer, Toya Carter charges $4,500 to spit her verse off the "Bedrock Remix" and show her cute face.

Just cause they appearance
Just cause they appearance fee is set that high doesnt mean they always get paid that much. For example my client Michael appearance fee is $500-1000 per appearance
But the thing is:If he just show up at some kinda club or event. He only makes $500.00
But if he's hosting it.Then he get's paid 1,000.00. He get paid $500.00 to show up and another $500.00 to talk and mingle with the crowd.Which usually help them make more money.Then what they would have.If h woulkd have jst showed up.

T.I. is the self-proclaimed King but really, i guess he's real royalty cuz im wondering who would pay that much for him to appear somewhere, that fee may be a group rate seeing as how he keeps major baggage and a large posse with him at all times

A rider is a list of demands, basically of what they require before they'll perform, in addition to money. They're almost always really specific (bottle sizes, proper temperature, coke vs. pepsi, brand of potato chips, etc.).
Some examples of what could be on a rider:
- bottled water
- x amount of towels
- alcohol
- food
- decorations of backstage area
- type of music playing backstage

See this is why I go where I
See this is why I go where I enjoy going not just the 'hot club of the moment', drink what I like drinking not just the 'in vodka' and wear what looks good on me screw the label. Because these celebs, and some non-celebs according to this list, are getting paid to show up, shill, swill and sell.
Why should I pay for brand names when they get them free as swag and get shopping sprees at clothing stores shut down to give them privacy while I'm standing on line to pay full price? I'm so glad I've been over that nonsense since high school.
And most of the people on this list, if I knew they were going to be at a club that's a reason for me NOT to go.
