All of us think that celebrities are these high profile out of this
world people with amazingly posh life styles. We idealize their ultra
modern homes and their world tours which sound larger than life. Have
you ever wondered what life backstage might be like? These celebrities
always keep whining about the long hours at the shooting sights, lack of
proper food, sleep deprivation while working and what not. Well surely
none of us dream of living endless days being short of sleep with
pebbles to eat and the floor to sleep on. Read on to find out some of
the most outrageous back stage demands that celebrities have these day
and never again would you believe a word coming out of their pretty
faces about woes of the backstage.
10. COOL J
Ladies Love Cool James!! Cool J?
Sounds familiar? He is an entrepreneur actor from Bay shore, New York
pretty famous for pioneering hip-hop such as “I can’t live without my
radio” and “Mama said knock you out”. He has appeared on many films and
currently stars as NCIS Special Agent Sam Hanna on the CBS crime drama
television series NCIS: Los Angeles. Any guesses for what his
backstage demands are? Well let us add to your knowledge. Get this, the
star wants 24 long stemmed roses and small (yeah small!!) bottle of
Johnson & Johnson baby oil and his game is on, as in literally. And
that is so not all. He has food days so if its Tuesday its only
Spaghetti, Wednesdays only beef, and Tex-Mex Thursdays.. Well Hurrah to
that!! Not something to whine about now is it!!
9. CHER
We have all heard about and seen just about enough of Cherilyn Sarkisian more commonly known to the normal human beings- uh no pun intended- as CHER.
And true the recent film Burlesque was quite amazing (BOWS!) but talk
about being over-whelmed. And that is exactly what you will be once you
read what she demands on set. Ready? A Wig-Room… yes yes, a dedicated
room for Cher’s hair. Sure we have heard a room dedicated to shoes (we
are all familiar with every girls obsession for shoes) and yes all of us
have wardrobes (a room like structure dedicated to clothes) but WIGS? A
room full of Hair? Now that is gross! But then again, it’s Cher … you
couldn’t expect lesser.
8. EMINEM
Eminem was the first white rapper since the beastie boys and he has
earned a lot of respect for himself in the music world. But apparently
the fame has gotten to the head because Eminem is another celebrity in
the long list of the rich and famous who have crazy backstage demands.
Backstage, Eminem wants a play station with joysticks and motion
sensors, a huge flat-screen television, and a personal masseur. Other
than that he demands a ping pong table and every delicacy of fast food
available on the planet. Talk about being a baby!
7. MARIAH CAREY
She is a very famous American song writer, singer, record producer,
and even an actress and much of you will be surprised to find out that
she has a bit of the Irish in her. Amazing no? Well she is as diverse in
her backstage demands as she is in her professional career. Her demands
include that the hotel puts in gold faucets in her washroom, she has
her own bed linens delivered to her hotel a day before she arrives. And
no that is not all, she requests that only her DVDs and CDs be played on
the TV in her hotel room and to top it all, she and her little pup
bathe only in the finest mineral water from France and nothing else
would do!
6. JENNIFER LOPEZ
Jennifer Lopez is very famous for hour glass physique and her super
awesome songs. She knows how to dance, she knows how to sing, she acts
well and she looks hot! In one of her latest songs “on the floor” she is
just ravishing. Looking at her on the screen one can never guess that
she can be a stuck-up blondie when it comes to back stage requirements.
Well be all ears people because here is what she requires: she needs her
suite to be completely painted in white, there should be white lilies
and white candles, and the room should be scented with a particular
perfume from Paris called Diptyque. The best part is that she needs her
bedsheets to be of Egyptian cotton with the thread count of at least
250. The room temperature needs to be set at 25.5 degree Celsius
EXACTLY! That is high maintenance we say!
5. JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE
We just saw him in the movie ” Friends with Benefits” with Mila
Kunis. Commonly agreed he looked totally cute and completely hot at the
same time. We have also seen him on the ramp of the Victoria’s Secret
fashion shows singing his stuff while the models strut around. Now would
you believe that whenever Justin Timberlake is on set he needs the
complete hotel floor to himself and it should include a personal fitness
studio, a huge stereo, Nintendo, and Play Station, the handles on the
door must all be disinfected, and the AC filters need to be changed. It
does sound completely unbelievable but true.
4. PRINCE
He has written more than a 1000 songs and women throw them selves at
him. But we are sure that once they know that he requires a physician at
hand backstage to administer him with Vitamin b12 shots at all times
and regular intervals they won’t be as eager. How weird is that?
3. BRITNEY SPEARS
There was a time when the song “Baby one more time” hit the market
and Britney, this cute little angel faced teenage became the talk of the
town. And then there came a time when apparently Britney lost it
completely. News regarding her rock-bottom relationships, her rehab
time, and the time when she went to jail for abusing her driver were
surfacing every where. Her backstage demands might be a part of this as
well because she demands a separate private phone line in her dressing
room and threatens to sue the director if the phone number leaks out or
if someone calls her on that phone. Wow!
2. JOHNNY DEPP
Okay so we have heard a lot about that fact that Johnny Depp is
another one of those celebrities that only shower once they smell their
own bad odor and it grossed us out. We cannot help but wonder that the
fact that he requires his hotel suite or dressing room covered in
Morrocon drapes, and filled with candles and water pipes is perhaps to
give him an alternative illusion of cleanliness. Funny thought, ain’t
it?
1. VAN HALEN
Van Halen are probably the only ones with a solid excuse for a random
and weird request in their backstage demand that is to have a huge bowl
of M n M’s but there should be no brown ones. And the excuse they claim
to put forth is that they just want to be re-assured that the
organizers have actually gone to the trouble of reading through their
requests. Very cheesy we must say!
