'R&B' star Beyonce has reportedly hired Lord Sugar's private jet worth 18.5 million pounds that the singer will use to fly to her concerts.
The 31-year-old 'Destiny's Child' hitmaker will use the jet to fly to her upcoming concerts in Europe and US on her four-month long 'Mrs Carter' tour, reported Sun Online.
"As a canny businessman Sir Alan often makes his jet available for corporate hire. He spent a lot on it so it makes perfect sense to make some money back when he can.
"The firm he rents the jet through was approached by Beyonce's people and after a bit of bartering they agreed a price," a source said.
Beyonce has also rented a luxury home in Berkshire for her time in the UK. She has been flying in and out of a private terminal at Manchester airport for three shows in the city this week.
