Christina Aguilera Made $1M for an Hour of Work This Weekend

You hear stories about big-time singers getting paid ridiculous amounts of money to perform at private parties all the time, but I don’t think I’ve ever heard of someone getting paid like Christina Aguilera did this weekend.

Charles Brandes, an investment guru AKA super-crazy rich dude, hired X-Tina to come down to his San Diego mansion and perform an hour-long set for the guests at his over-the-top annual Halloween party. It’s rumored that she walked away with a cool milli for her work that night. That has to be some sort of record.

Beyonce pulled in $2 million for a private show she did last New Year’s but she had to perform for Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi’s son, and they’re like… really unpopular people. Seriously unpopular people who have said and done some really gross things. It was 2 million dollars of dirty money, if you ask me.

Whatever. Let’s not harp. It’s Tuesday. Let’s keep it chill.

If you had a million dollars to blow on the performer of your choice, who would you have play a private show for you?
