Kanye West has always been selective when it comes to things he puts his name on, so what seems impressive to some might appear mediocre to him. According to TMZ, the Chicago native recently turned down a lucrative $4.5 million deal in Vegas, which would have earned him the title of highest paid performer, outranking Celine Dion, Britney Spears and J-Lo.

The offer involved Yeezy performing three shows a week for three weeks at the Axis at Planet Hollywood. He would have racked up an impressive $500,000 lump sum per show. For the man designing a diamond ring for his 16-month-old daughter, money is clearly no object but for some reason the Vegas deal just didm't attract the controversial rapper.

Kanye's reasoning for walking away from the deal has yet to be disclosed.
