Description | Rapper Kanye West has been paid millions after performing at the wedding of controversial President Nursultan Nazarbayev's grandson, says reports.
Kanye West allegedly spent Saturday night in Kazakhstan, performing at a wedding for the grandson of President Nursultan Nazarbayev. Despite international protests over Nazarbayev's human rights record, West apparently accepted millions for a gig at Almaty's luxurious Grand Tulip Hotel.
News of West's appearance emerged via Twitter and Instagram postings by several of the party's guests. One attendee, a professional photographer, shared an image from the show. The pixelated footage shows the rapper performing to an ambivalent crowd: people scarcely seem to be paying attention; when they are, they are posing for photographs. |
