For my 16th birthday, I'm sure I received a record or a shirt. Now look at what this kid got for their party!

A rich Long Island defense contractor shelled out more than $10 million last week to have Aerosmith, Stevie Nicks, Kenny G., 50 Cent, Don Henley, Tom Petty and others perform at his daughter's Bat Mitzvah. According to the New York Daily News, multi-millionaire David H. Brooks had a stage built and installed carpeting for the coming-of-age party at New York City's famous Rainbow Room at the top of Rockefeller Center. He also hired corporate jets to shuffle the celebrity artists to and from the celebration.

Steven Tyler and Joe Perry of Aerosmith got paid $2 million for the private gig, and Kenny G. received $250,000. 50 Cent played four or five songs for about $500,000.
Nearly 300 guests attended the party.

Holy jumpin...How would you top that for a Grad gift?
