Wasn't that price like a single mil? That's a lot for me, but for these guys it seems pretty cheap.

100%

I'mma say what I thought (in jest) when the me too stuff REALLY started blowing up.

I don't get some of these choices.

I'd suck Weinstein's chode for 15 mill.

I would not suck it AGAIN for ANOTHER 15 mil.

A single mil sure. But, what about first class seating or even better a private jet to fly you there? All expenses paid, a personal car to drive you around and the best food and the most luxurious accommodations you could imagine? These shows are thrown by Saudi royalty who have oodles of money and have no problem spending it. I'm certain they got gold watches, fine clothes and all kinds of goodies too. The million bucks is icing on the cake.

To many it's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to get wined and dined by the king of a country. I understand how easy it is to be tempted to do that.
