LOS ANGELES, July 29 (UPI) -- U.S. recording artist Soulja Boy has bought a G5 jet for $35 million and is spending an additional $20 million to customize it, TMZ reported Friday.

The jet was a gift to himself for his 21st birthday, a member of his management team told the celebrity news Web site.

The singer's renovation plans include the installation of 12 custom Italian leather seats, a luxury bathroom, flat screen television sets, four liquor bars, a tiled floor and Brazilian hardwood cabinets. The jet will also be repainted and will feature Soulja Boy's logo, the report said.
