Kim Kardashian will reportedly be paid $600,000 for appearing New Year’s Eve at the TAO nightclub in Las Vegas.
She has already filmed several scenes for her E! reality show inside the city’s Venetian Hotel, where TAO is located. Last year, she was paid $500,000 to ring in the new year at the nightclub.
“New Year’s Eve is one of my favorite nights of the year,” she tweeted. “Time to celebrate everything you’ve achieved in the past year and look forward to everything to come in the New Year… This New Year’s Eve, I’ll be celebrating at Tao in Las Vegas. I can’t wait!”
The average New Year's Eve fee for relevant talent is $100,000," Jack Colton, a Las Vegas nightlife expert and creator of the popular nightlife website, JackColton.com, said. "An A-List celebrity moves up to $250,000, and for a major grab can go as high as $1 million. Your Lady Gaga's and Jay-Zs would be considered major grabs.”
Kardashian, however, is getting more money for her appearance in Vegas than any other celebrity.
Others who will be in Vegas Saturday include singer Fergie, who will earn $100,000 to play at 1Oak at the Mirage Hotel and Casino. The Black Eyed Peas are also set to make the same amount in the same location.
Tickets for the TAO event will cost $225 per person.
