Kanye West gets $3 million for just one gig in KAZAKHSTAN
He does have a new baby to feed and those leather trousers don't come cheap...
What a price tag
He has a love of gold toilets and reportedly spends hundreds of
dollars per toilet roll so Kanye West obviously charges some serious
cash for every performance.
And it seems nowhere in the globe is out of bounds for the Can't Tell Me Nothing star as he left baby mama Kim Kardashian and daughter North West over labour weekend to fly to KAZAKHSTAN.
Famous
as the country where Sacha Baron Cohen's Borat character comes from,
Kazakhstan would have a been a long journey for the new dad - but the
price tag more than made up for it.
According
to TMZ Kanye was invited by President Nursultan Nazarbayev to perform
at his grandson's wedding Saturday night in Almaty at the Hotel Royal
Tulip - and promised a $3 million pound fee.
One of the wedding guests posted a video of the star performing on Instagram over the weekend.
President
Nazarbayev, who is reportedly worth billions, is a controversial figure
and has been at the centre of corruption claims in the past. North West stayed at home

Two years ago Sting pulled out of a concert for the president over claims of human rights violations.
Speaking
in 2011 he said: "Hunger strikes, imprisoned workers and tens of
thousands on strike represents a virtual picket line which I have no
intention of crossing.
"The Kazakh gas and oil workers and their
families need our support and the spotlight of the international media
on their situation in the hope of bringing about positive change."
