Celebrities, even those
on the D-List, have
often been known to make
outrageous demands on
movie shoots, or concert
tours when they stay
over in a hotel. But
these 10 take the cake
and throw it against the
wall when it comes to
satisfying their needs.
10.
Eminem
requires a PlayStation
for video games,
ping-pong table,
basketball hoop, giant
flat-screen TV, personal
masseur – and “whatever
kind of fast-food exists
on the continent.”
9. Rock group Depeche
Mode must have a dozen
drumsticks from Kentucky
Fried Chicken and 10
tuna sandwiches – five
on white bread and five
on brown, displayed on a
bed of lettuce on a tray
covered in Saran Wrap.
8. Christina Aguilera
requires organic fruits
and vegetables, soy milk
and soy cheese, along
with Flintstones
chewable vitamins,
Nesquik and Coca-Cola.
No Pepsi. No diet.
7. Rod Stewart
refuses to tolerate any
light in the hotel room
for his afternoon nap.
He sends a special
“darkening” team to the
hotel in advance to seal
all cracks. And, he asks
for 13 soccer balls.
6. Geri Halliwell
demands air-conditioning
– even when performing
for the troops in tents
overseas – along with a
fridge in her makeshift
desert dressing room
filled with soy milk and
fruit juice. She needs a
computer with full
Internet access
available at all times.
5. Justin Timberlake
requires an entire hotel
floor, private fitness
studio, an extra-large
stereo, along with
Nintendo and
PlayStation. The floor’s
air conditioning filters
must be changed on his
arrival. Door handles
must be disinfected
every few hours.
4. Vice President
Dick Cheney requires all
televisions in his room
to be tuned to Fox News;
a pot of decaf coffee
and four cans of ‘Diet
Caffeine Free Sprite;
copies of The New York
Times and the Wall
Street Journal every
morning and that his
staff be notified in
advance of any hotel
gifts left in the suite.
3. Mariah Carey
demands that her hotel
suite be fitted with
gold faucets. A new
toilet seat must be
installed before her
arrival. Her own bed
linens are delivered in
advance. Only her own
videos may be played on
the two DVD players she
demands for her room.
Both Carey and her dog
bathe only in French
mineral water.
2. Britney Spears
requires a private phone
line in her dressing
room and threatens to
sue the promoter if the
number gets published or
anyone calls her. She
asks for General Foods
International Coffee,
Cap’n Crunch, Fruit
Loops and Pop Tarts in
he dressing room.
And the celebrity who
makes the most
outrageous demands:
1. Jennifer Lopez’s
suite must be painted
and furnished completely
in white, with white
lilies and white roses,
her favorite flowers.
White candles
prominently placed,
preferably with Paris
perfume, “Diptyque.” Her
sheets must be of
Egyptian cotton with a
thread count of at least
250. Room temperature
set at exactly 25.5
degrees Celsius.”
