Hello Jamirotalkers,
Here's the entire article:

JAY'S QUIDS IN AFTER GADGET LAUNCH GIG
Jay Kay, Pharrell Williams and Busta Rhymes put a huge dent in the budget of the Gizmondo bosses after this weekend's launch.
We're told the Jamiroquai frontman got a cool £800,000, while Pharrell walked off with £280,000 for promoting the hot new gaming, music and movie gadget.
An insider said: "Jay got the most, as he was the night's headline performer ( ), but the others got big pay cheques." Meanwhile Busta's backstage demands raised a few eyebrows.
The rapper wanted two boxes of Rough Rider condoms (that's 50) for his St Martin's Lane Hotel suite, in London's West End.
Says a source: "The next day there were lots of empty packets littered all over the room, so they were put to good use." Eww! |

Yeah, he was throwing them out the window at some poor souls walking by.  _________________ "...I feel that Jamiroquai needs to be taken to another stage now. It really does. Otherwise, I have to be honest, I can see a situation where...there is a possibility that you become lost in the annals of acid jazz history." -- Jason Kay |
