Top Five Celebrity Diva Demands

Opening a tabloid newspaper or gossip magazine and no doubt there will be a story splashed on the cover about a celebrity showing her diva habits.

The tabloids love it and the celebrities hate it as their credibility falls down the pipeline when the public discovers they aren’t the sweet girls they make out to be.

Over the years we have heard rumours of many celebs demanding food to be sent up to their hotel room at 5am and throwing a tantrum if their sheets aren’t made of Egyptian silk cotton.

We have picked our fave top five-diva celebrities who are renowned for their diva tantrums…enjoy!

 1 Mariah Carey

 Mariah’s appearance on last years X Factor saw the US singer bring a few diva antics to the UK.

Arriving with 27 bags in tow, Mariah and her entourage all flew first-class and stayed at the lush Dorchester, where a suite costs just £2,000 a night.

The singer also insisted that the entire floor of the X Factor studios was for use only.

Her assistant demanded that a corridor was to be built from her mobile home to the door into the studio so that she could prepare for the concert.

After the show, Mariah flew to Monaco on a private jet, which cost the World Music Awards £10,000.

On arrival she asked for renowned Michelin-starred chef Alain Ducasse to be brought to her hotel to cook her private dinner before asking him to stay to teach her how to cook the clam linguine for her new husband Nick Cannon. How thoughtful!

2. Sharon Stone

Sharon Stone has let the fame go to her head since producers asked her to star in the Basic Instinct sequel.

Shazza’s requests took up five pages and included three nannies, two assistants, first class travel (if a private jet was unavailable), presidential suite, chef, and deluxe motor home with all amenities including VCR and cellular fax machine.

The star demanded she be equipped with Pilates equipment, a chauffeured car plus a convertible sedan for herself.

Any wardrobe and jewelry worn in the picture that wasn’t rented she would also keep. Plus her bodyguards would receive $3,500 per week. 

3. Jennifer Lopez

Arriving at the five-star hotel London hotel, The Dorchester, the Latina star proved just how high maintenance she was.

The pop princess requested no less than three types of Coke (diet, regular and caffeine-free regular), two humidifiers, a preference for white or red roses or white lilies, two humidifiers and two oscillating fans with the preferred room temperature at 26°C.

The diva further went on to provide a similar request list ahead of the video shoot for the 9/11 tribute song, “What’s Going On” despite all profits going to charity.

4. Aretha Franklin?

The ‘Respect’ diva demanded $25,000 up front in cash upon arrival at the venue of a show.

Aretha also insisted that when staying in a hotel room, she must never be placed above the 5^th floor.

5. Cher

Sixties survivor, Cher insists she has an additional area for preparation before a show. Not satisfied, like most bands to share a single dressing room, the diva requires a ‘Wig Room, special tissues, black Solo cups and lilies.

The diva thinks she is so big; she shouldn’t have to wear one of those laminated tour passes backstage. Touchy!
