The fees have fans peeved, and one fan even tells RadarOnline.com, "This is Kris Jenner style!"

But it's Chloe's VIP Spa Party with Polka Dots Girls that takes the cake — sold out at $150 per person in Glastonbury, Connecticut.
"Reality stars aren't supposed to charge their fans for a meet-and-greet," a fan told RadarOnline.com.
"It defeats the purpose and just shows they're out to make money any way they can."
Dance Moms is entering their third season, which will premiere on Lifetime in 2013.
