When Drake serenades his hit single "Hotline Bling" during a private Bat Mitzvah, you can be sure it will be a memorable event that 12-year-olds will never forget.
Drake had a concert over the weekend, but it wasn't a stadium type concert as one might expect. Drake performed at a closed restaurant for a private event celebrating a Jewish Bat Mitzvah with about 400 guests attending. Gigi Ashkenazy was the lucky celebrant that got serenaded by famous rapper musician Drake.
TMZ reported that he headlined the private event at the famous Rainbow Room in New York City. His audience were fans that were below the age of 15 more or less. Making sure his songs were family-friendly, the singer and song-writer rocked out to famous hits titled "Hotline Bling" and "My Way."
How did Drake get to score a Bat Mitzvah? Or maybe the other way around - how did Gigi Ashkenazy get to score a crooner like Drake? TMZ explained that her mother called him on his mobile phone which meant that the family might have some serious music industry connections.
If you're thinking how much it costs to hire someone like Drake for your teenage party, his going rate for private parties range between $300,000 up to $600,000. His fee depends on the playlist as well. Since he sang one of his hit singles, that might mean he was paid highly. If you'd like to be serenaded by hit stars like Drake, then prepare your wallets and credit cards.
So, how can a young Jewish girl afford to have Drake serenade her? The man behind this private event is none other than her doting father Ben Ashkenazy. Mr. Ashkenazy is a commercial real estate developer and owns his own firm. His current net worth is around $7 Billion.
