Her latest venture, which took place over the weekend, was billed as an "ultimate Christmas present".

An ad for the day read: "The event that you have been waiting for is finally here. Look no further for your ultimate Mini G Christmas present of 2018.

"This year Honey G will be participating in the London Pantomime Horse Race which is twinned with her exclusive VIP Christmas meet and greet."

However, the price tag put off some of her Twitter followers, who wrote: "Is this a joke?"

"£30 quid hahahahahaa ... no thanks."

However, Honey's fee pales in comparison to other heavy hitters in the music biz.

Another seethed: "If the prices rumours for show next month are true totally gutted.

"Way our of my budget and I'm one of her biggest most loyal fans. Such a shame to make people pay such an amount well that's me unable to go."

Meanwhile Grammy award-winner Kendrick Lamar charged £337 for his Wembley show, while One Direction's Niall Horan has priced meet and greets for his Norway date at £299.
