While you may still be finalizing your New Years Eve plans, one reality-TV star has everything sorted out already. Kim Kardashian is reportedly being offered $600,000 to show up at Tao in Las Vegas to ring in the New Year.
Tao has reportedly offered Kardashian $600,000 to show up at their venue on Saturday evening to celebrate the end of 2011 and the start of 2012 with other party-goers, who are paying around $225 to get into Tao. The Daily Mail noted that the payment isn’t just for a one-time appearance though, so Kardashian may be returning to Tao sooner rather than later as part of the more than half a million dollar multi-event deal.
Other celebrities are in on the moneymaking holiday appearance game too. Katy Perry has reportedly been seeking a $250,000 New Year’s Eve appearance which wouldn’t include a performance and Fergie from the Black Eyed Peas will earn approximately $100,000 to perform at the new 1 Oak Lounge located in the Mirage Hotel and Casino in Vegas.
