Black Eyed Peas to Perform for Russian Billionaire on NYE

Popular rap group the Black Eyed Peas have been booked to perform at a private party for Russian billionaire Ramon Abramovich this New Year's Eve. The 'I've Gotta Feeling' rappers will be flown out to the Caribbean island St. Barts for the event, which takes place on Abramovich's 70-acre, $90 million private estate.

The billionaire oil baron and Chelsea Football Club owner is said to have gone all out for the NYE bash, spending millions of dollars on the performers, food, drinks and gifts for his guests. Last year, Abramovich's NYE event boasted celebrity guests including Jay-Z, Kanye West and Lindsay Lohan, with a performance by Beyonce.

Abramovich, who is worth a reported $11.2 billlion, is still only Russia's fourth richest person, and travels with a personal army of 40 or more bodyguards.
