George Michael does a $3 million concert
MOSCOW, Jan. 3 (UPI) -- A Russian billionaire paid British pop star George Michael $3.3 million for a special New Year's Eve performance at a party outside Moscow.

Mining tycoon Vladimir Potanin, thought to be the ninth richest person in Russia, flew the 43-year-old musician to Moscow in a private jet and paid him the hefty fee for a 75 minute performance at his estate, hellomagazine.com reported Wednesday.

Michael's pay for the 13-song set is thought to be the largest sum ever paid to an entertainer for a single performance. He went on stage at 3:30 a.m. local time and performed until 4:45 a.m., at which time he boarded a second private flight back to Britain.

Potanin had invited about 300 guests to his New Year's bash.

Not a bad deal for George. Now maybe he can afford higher class escorts instead of grubbing around at the park with old men.

LOL!! What makes you think for one minute he didn't?

For that kind of money, I hope he got to choose the 13 sex acts songs for George to perform.
