Music megastar Beyonce is set to perform at the opening of Atlantis The Royal.
The Single Ladies singer has not played a full-length concert since 2018, but has reportedly been offered $24 million for the one-hour gig at the five-star hotel, reports The Sun newspaper.
Tickets for the show will be hard to come by as it is invite-only, with those select tickets already having been sent out.
The ultra-luxury waterfront hotel was supposed to have its grand reveal in November but this has been postponed until January 21.
