European entrepreneur Richard Lugner has so much money, every year he hand picks a celebrity to accompany him to Austria's glitzy annual Opera Ball.

Last year Paris Hilton was reportedly paid $1 million dollars to accompany him to the swanky ball in Vienna, but this year he choose Dita Von Teese as his date.

He says, "After going to Marilyn Manson's concert, my daughter begged me for days to invite her."

The ball will take place at the State Opera House on January 31st. Previous Lugner guests include Spice Girl Geri Halliwell, Pamela Anderson, Andie MacDowell and Sophia Loren. Must be nice right?
