Blake Shelton & Miranda Lambert — Take Your Million And Shove It … Reject Huge Vegas Offer
EXCLUSIVE
Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert turned down $ 1 million to perform for ONE weekend in Las Vegas … a significant sign that Caesars Palace might have a harder time than expected lining up replacements for Celine Dion while she’s on pause.
TMZ has learned … Blake and Miranda were existing a cool mil to play 3 shows at The Colosseum at Caesars back in February — but when the couple countered at $ 1.25 million, the arena’s operator AEG balked.
As we first reported … Robin Williams and Mariah Carey also turned down similar 6-figure offers, in 2012 and 2013 respectively.
Of course, Celine recently announced she was postponing her residency at the Colosseum in anticipation of March … while she cares for her ailing husband.
The timer’s ticking … the venue has about 4,300 seats that will go empty if AEG and Caesars can’t line up new talent. Maybe Miranda and Blake’s asking fee isn’t so outrageous after all.
