imagine spending $5M on a wedding singer for a marriage that would've lasted 2-3 years tops

Jenny is worth about 500m, and earns millions a year, a drop in the ocean 

[UseYourIllusion2002]

Wait I didn't know she married Aron 

[MonsterJohn]

Couldn't she just sing Bruno's songs? She has the voice 

[HASHTAGPOW]

Ava Max will do it for food and wine

5 million to perform a 45-60 minute gig is absolutely ridiculous, most artists don't earn that much in a full show (not even Bruno himself) so I understand why J.Lo reacted like that

5 million is less than what I was expecting tbh

[Pop Fan]

Well he has to pay his casino debt somehow…

At first I thought this said "was shocked by his size (5')"

I SCREAMED!

bruno is the last artist i'd ever spend a disposable 5 million dollars on lmao his hits are terribly corny.

[BnPac]

5M seems reasonable. He's huge and has casino debts to pay lol.

I wonder if it's to put people off booking him for private performances

That could be a possible reason although I think it's unlikely

Yeah, especially if that person is someone like JLo. If Gaga or Rosé asked him to perform at their wedding, he'd do it for free…

I know but still…he'd probably make a better offer to a colleague/peer who's close to him than to someone who's not

[J-esper]

Most rates of singers, entertainers or even news anchors or any other celeb to appear at any random event is high. 

 

Even local acts can ask high rates. I used to work in both tv and events and even your average local D-list celeb can end up quoting more than you expect. 

 

This doesn't seem a weird rate to me. It scares enough people off. 

[John Slayne]

that doesn't surprise me, didn't Beyonce and Rihanna get 10M each for their private performances? you also have to keep in mind that doing a wedding performance kinda cheapens these big stars' brand, unless they can exploit it by getting headlines and/or charging ridiculous amounts like above 

 

i used to volunteer for a Pride organization in a small English city, our budget for performers was under 30k, and even D-List khias would charge 10k for headlining. random drag race queens would usually be around 2-3k, depending on how famous they got off the show. i was once told that Kylie quoted 100k for Manchester Pride (mind you that many performers will do discounts for Pride events and festivals, so private fees are probably even higher) in like 2018, her fee is probably triple that now after Padam Padam and her resurgence. Sophie Ellis Bextor quoted us 15k once but that's also probably higher now after MOTD went viral

Hasn't JLo herself received amounts like these for private performances ? Why is she shocked ?

1 million per foot

So they only care to do these for the richest of the richest. Billionaires will pay such prices. Someone with $100M net worth would not be interested.
