That's a myth. The video's budget was only 35,000$. And here's the explanation..

Jared said in an interview that it was less expensive because it was filmed in China, and because the products are a less expensive than if it were made in Europe or America.

this list is missing Janet Jackson come on...she had amazing videos
doesn't really matter CANT be less than 1.000.000
what about Call on me...uh
10. "Girlfriend/Boyfriend"
Cost: $1,500,000+
Artist: Blackstreet (featuring Janet Jackson)
This video is completely computer animated, taking place inside a pinball machine. The basic "plot" is that Blackstreet and Janet Jackson feel like pinballs, bouncing uncontrollably through their lives, when it's all really just a game. What made it so expensive? Well, computer animation ain't cheap, and neither is Janet Jackson (the same cannot be said about sibling Latoya . . .)
* Janet's wardrobe: $10,000
* Blackstreet's wardrobe: $25,000
* Janet's travel costs: $50,000
* Blackstreet's travel costs: $200,000
* 3-D animation costs: $600,000
9. "November Rain"
Cost: $1,500,000+
Artist: Guns N' Roses
An 11-minute video extravaganza, this video tells the supposed tale of singer Axl Rose and model Stephanie Seymour getting married, having a party, and living out their lives together until death. And all it took was 11 minutes? . . . A classy video that combines storytelling with live concert performances, Guns N' Roses actually paid for the video themselves, to insure that it looked as they envisioned.
* Renting a symphony orchestra: $25,000
* Specially constructed chapel: $150,000
* Wedding dress: $8,000
* Specially constructed coffin: $8,000
