The New York Post, a popular US based tabliod has reported how a Nigerian
oil, gas and aviation tycoon, Mr Kola Aluko spent about $1.5 million in a
few hours at Leo DiCaprio’s star-studded birthday bash.
According to nypost.com, the Multimillionaire businessman Aluko, a
co-founder of the Made In Africa Foundation who was recently seen lunching
in Paris with Naomi Campbell, was among a group of wealthy businessman who
bought bottle after bottle of champagne at DiCaprio’s 39th birthday party
at Tao Downtown late Sunday night.
The website reported that other big spenders at the
lavish fete included
“The Wolf of Wall Street” producer Joey McFarland and Texas businessman
Nate Paul.
The report said, Mr Kanye West was paid $100,000 by DiCaprio, personally,
to perform.
The actor raised more than $3 million on the night for his charity the Leo
DiCaprio Foundation by adding a hefty fee on top of all the bottles, plus
donations from his wealthy friends.
One guest told us, “The party was wild — wall-to-wall models.
There were
probably 20 girls to every guy. Leo started the night with a dinner in a
private room and then joined the party around midnight.
“Danny A, who hosted, would get on the microphone and announce who placed
the champagne order and for how much, .?.?. then a train of 100 bottles
would come out with sparklers and girls dressed in burlesque [outfits].
Kola Aluko may have spent up to $1.5 million in one night.”
Danny A is the guy who famously fell afoul of George Clooney by “talking
[bleep]” during a basketball game while on Leo’s team.
Report says, “2 Chainz performed, then Kanye surprised Leo and
performed a full show of about 10 songs with DJ Jus-Ske including
‘Clique’, ‘Good Life’, ‘Power’ and ‘All of the Lights.’ Kim Kardashian was
singing along.”
The guest added, “Leo and girlfriend Toni Garrn were front-row for the
entire performance, dancing and kissing.”
Also there: Derek Jeter, Alex Rodriguez, Ron Burkle, Benicio Del Toro,
Ronnie Wood, Martin Scorsese, Brandon Davis, Orlando Bloom, Jho Low, Vivi
Nevo, Tobey Maguire, Ed Norton, Q-Tip, Lukas Haas, Vladimir Doronin, Tony
Shafrazi and Busta Rhymes.
