Amevi

British newspapers have reported that Indian steel billionaire Lakshmi Mittal commissioned this lady for £100 million about four years ago, which would have been a bit less than $150 million at the time. They've also claimed that he and his family vowed a 10-day cruise they went on last spring in the Med would be their last, as the weather was pretty rough. Well, Amevi was subsequently spotted in Spain, Sardinia, and even Dubai, so something tells us the reporters need to find new sources.
