Justin Bieber reportedly gets paid $10M to perform at billionaire heir Anant Ambani’s pre-wedding in Mumbai
Never say never — especially to a check.
Justin Bieber was paid $10 million to perform at billionaire heir Anant Ambani’s pre-wedding ceremony in Mumbai on Friday, according to Indian reports.
The pop star, 30, sang more than a dozen of his hit songs, including “Baby,” “Love Yourself” and “Peaches,” during a private concert for Ambani, the businessman’s fiancée, Radhika Merchant, and their family and friends.
Bieber, who has an estimated net worth of $300 million, shared a series of photos and videos from the pricey gig on Instagram Saturday, including a slideshow with the bride- and groom-to-be.
The singer smiled backstage in a white tank top, sagging black pants that showed his plaid boxers and a backward baseball cap as he posed with Ambani and Merchant, both 29, as well as their loved ones.
At one point in his performance, Bieber held out his microphone to front-row guest Orhan Awatramani, who bounced around while singing along to the Grammy winner’s 2015 EDM hit “Where Are Ü Now.”
Multiple posts on Bieber’s account also gave a glimpse into his brief trip to India, showing him enjoying a limousine ride to the venue and lounging his hotel suite.
Shortly after taking the stage during the sangeet, the chart-topper flew home to America to reunite with his wife, Hailey Bieber, who is pregnant with their first child.
Ambani is the son of Reliance Industries chairman and managing director Mukesh Ambani, who is the richest person in Asia with a net worth of $123.4 billion, according to Forbes.
The family has been gearing up for the July 12 wedding for months.
In March, Rihanna got a reported $6 million to perform for the couple at a celebration attended by fellow billionaires Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg.
And in May, the Ambanis invited their relatives on a three-day cruise from Italy to France that featured performances by Katy Perry, Pitbull and David Guetta.
