Ariana Grande Got Paid the EXACT Same Amount for Coachella as Beyoncé Did

Ariana Grande and Beyoncé got paid the same amount to headline Coachella, despite reports saying the "7 Rings" singer made double.
It was reported this week that Grande was paid $8 million for the high-profile gig and that Bey only got $4 million for her iconic performance. Those numbers are only half true.
According to our sources, the Grande number is accurate and Bey did get $4 million ... for each show. We're told the contracts for Grande and Beyoncé were structured exactly the same way — $4 million for the first weekend and another $4 million for the second.
Grande's first performance last week featured appearances by Nicki Minaj and a Justin Timberlake-less *NSYNC.
Beyoncé commemorated her legendary Coachella 2018 show with both a Netflix documentary and a live album, both of which debuted this week.
