$1,33,000 of perks for Missy

Hip-hop star Missy Elliot has stunned organisers of her latest gig, by demanding $1,33,000 of backstage perks.

The Get Your Freak On rapper has provided a huge list of requests for her forthcoming gig in Bournemouth, England.

To persuade the star to leave her native US for the UK, the gig organisers have paid for 35 first-class flight seats, two five-star hotel suites, 33 five-star rooms, $5,500 worth of dinners and an unlimited source of Cristal champagne — which costs $750 a pop.
