Jennifer Lopez was paid $1.5 million to perform at a private party for Turkmenistan's president Kurbanguly Berdymukhamedov, who is essentially a dictator as he faces no real opposition in his elections, and also for executives of the China National Petroleum Corp., reports US Weekly and Reuters.
Lopez's other dubious business dealings:
In July 2011, Uzbek industrialist, Azam Aslanov, paid the mum-of-two 1 million dollars to sing at his son's wedding.
In September 2012, Azerbaijan's officials booked the singer to perform at a FIFA soccer tournament and negotiated a contract for a music festival.
In October 2012, she performed in Belarus, a dictatorship.
In November 2012, Lopez visited Russia to sing for Alexander Yolkin, a bureaucrat accused of corruption.
