Eminem wanted $2 Million for a Super Bowl Gig!

Eminem was reportedly approached to play a concert at the NFL Owners Party during Super Bowl week in 2014, but organizers were forced to find a replacement act after the rapper demanded an unreasonably expensive price. Eminem was supposed to perform a set of his greatest hits for 1,500 guests and wanted $2 million for the performance, reports tmz.com.

The Super Bowl, annual championship game of the National Football League (NFL), is famous for having the world's biggest stars perform at the half-time show, previously including Madonna, The Who, Prince and Beyonce. Representative for the event also planned to approach rapper Kanye West but his fees was also high.

"(For Kanye) it was $1 million, plus a lot of other perks," said a source.

Organisers eventually secured 'Tight Rope' singer Janelle Monae who will perform for $150,000.
