Justin Bieber's Million Dollar Tel Aviv Payday

Posted Wednesday April 20, 2011 12:13 PM GMT

There's no doubt that the teen heartthrob caused a tween girl frenzy all over the Holy Land with his appearance, but was Justin Bieber overpaid for his under-selling Tel Aviv concert stop?

According to The Hollywood Reporter, a source has revealed that the "Never Say Never" singer received a whopping $1 million for his April 14 concert at Hayarkon Park, despite the fact that the show was not even close to a sellout.

Event coordinators had hoped to bring in around 35,000 attendees, while it was estimated that only 24,000 fans actually witnessed the 90-minute performance.

One Israeli promoter offered insight on the issue of sluggish sales, telling, "They overpaid and did not market it right. I think it's important for every artist to come to Israel, but you need to know your crowd."
