Cheryl Cole reportedly spent £65,000 on her X Factor performance of debut solo single ‘Fight For This Love’.
The singer, whose album 3 Words is currently at number one, allegedly paid the sum for her dancers, costumes, extra lighting, lasers and other special effects for the live show.
“The performers have to pay their own production costs and it can be a small fortune,” a source told The Mirror.
Meanwhile, performances by Whitney Houston and Alexandra Burke on the ITV1 programme are reported to have each cost £60,000.
Bon Jovi are said to have staged the cheapest live performance last Sunday, which allegedly came in at approximately £30,000.
Black Eyed Peas and Leona Lewis have been confirmed to sing on Sunday night’s live show.
