Ahhh to be a celebrity on New Year's Eve!

While most of us are still trying to figure out how much we'll have to fork over to get into a club, both A-listers and D-listers alike are raking in the bills simply by showing their pretty faces at the hottest spots on NYE!

We've put together a list of just a few celebs who are set to earn mega-bucks when the ball drops, and you wont believe their pay checks!

Sexy singer Rihanna is picking up $250,000 to host at Pure at Caesars Palace in Vegas while her ex-boyfriend Drake will earn the very same amount to host at Wall at the W Hotel in South Beach. It pays to date Rihanna!

Coldplay lead singer Chris Martin, along with wife Gwyneth Paltrow, Jay-Z, and Beyoncé are reportedly earning $1 million each for performing together at the $25 million Cosmopolitan hotel bash in Las Vegas. We hope Gwynnie sings!

Nicki Minaj will take home $75,000 to perform at Miami's Mansion, and Trey Songz gets a cool $37,500 to host at Lux nightclub in Miami Beach, but you don't have to be a performer to host an NYC blowout! Jersey Shore's Snooki is earning $10,000 to host Madame Tussauds on West 42nd Street ... a "real" celeb hosting a party with a whole lotta fake, waxy celebs? Heck yes!

But we can't forget the DJs! They make a lot of cash on NYE too, as they should! DJ Tiesto will nab a whopping $200,000 to spin at Miami's Fontainebleau ... and if he's making that much, we wonder how much Samantha Ronson is asking?

The rest of us just have to worry about paying to get IN!
