14 DAY TRIAL // It sure pays to be Lana Del Rey these days, quite literally so. The pop singer, who happens to be one of Kim Kardashian’s favorite artists, was asked to perform for her on her big wedding weekend in Paris, France – and pocketed in exchange the cool amount of $2.8 million (€2 million).
Before saying their “I Do”s at a castle in Florence, Italy, Kim and Kanye celebrated with family and friends in Paris, including hosting a rehearsal dinner at Versailles.
The party was royalty-themed and included an 18th century orchestra that played while the guests indulged in fancy culinary treats and toasts were held. The other performer of the night was Lana, who reportedly brought tears to the eyes of attendees with her beautiful performance.

The set included just 3 songs, “Summertime Sadness” among them, the Daily Mail reports. For this and for the act of showing up, Lana is now considerably richer but, an insider says for the tab, this huge amount was money well spent.
“Kim and Kanye love her and were so happy she could sing for them,” says the tipster.
When Kanye proposed to Kim in a surprise birthday party, he had wanted to have Lana perform for her live but she couldn’t make it because of a previous commitment. In other words, Kanye would have probably paid even more to have her at the pre-wedding festivities.
