Drake Scores Ma$$ive Payday For Las Vegas Residency

Drake's going to get around $24 million to play 12 dates in the desert.

According to the Las Vegas Review Journal, Drake will play a dozen shows at the XS Nightclub at Wynn Las Vegas at about $2 million a show.

If that report is true, it would top the million dollars per show Lady Gaga, Vegas's previously most highly paid performer, is slated to be getting in her upcoming residency.

Drake's first show was Thursday night and he told the crowd to expect more.

"When I came back, I thought it’d be back at T-Mobile Arena or some (stuff)," but I’ll be back here at XS all year. You’ll have a lot of chances to see me.”

Drake also called the XS Nightclub his "new home" on Instagram.

New home.
