In other words, there’s a lot goes on behind backstage doors.
Here are 10+ celebs that have crazy backstage demands.
1. Selena Gomez
Move over, Voldermort — there’s a new “He Who Must Not Be Named!”
According to Wetpaint Selena refused to hire anyone named “Justin” after their 2014 breakup.
2. Drake
If you haven’t noticed from his song lyrics already, the Canadian singer is obsessed with the whiskey, Hennessy.
So much so, that it’s one of the many types of alcohol that he needs to have on tour.
He also requests Grey Goose Vodka, Courvoisier, Patron Silver Tequila, Jack Daniels, and Heineken.
Also, he needs scented incense.
3. Taylor Swift
Remember in “Blank Space” when everyone thought Tay was singing “Starbucks lovers?”
Well, fans might not have been as off as they think.
Turns out, Starbucks is part of the singer’s backstage demands !
Her specific order *has* to be delivered before 11 a.m.
Curious as to what it is?
She orders 1 Grande iced Caramel Latte with 2 Sweet-N-Lows, 1 Grande iced Americano with 2 Sweet-N-Lows and soy milk, and 1 slice of Pumpkin loaf.
Great, now we’re craving Starbucks.
4. Mariah Carey
There’s no denying that Mariah has a diva reputation, so let’s get into her list of demands, shall we?
She once requested Cristal champagne, bendy straws, and even someone to toss her gum out for her.
But that’s nothing compared to this following list of items that she reportedly once asked for.
This included four Joe Malone vanilla-scented candles, 12 bottles of melon flavored Gatorade, eight tall plants, and 12 small bottles of water at room temperature.
All of this, of course, had to be in a room that was set to 75 degrees.
5. Adele
Back in 2011, when Adele was smoking up to 25 cigarettes a day, she requested one pack of Marlboro Lights and a lighter for her “Adele 21” tour.
She also specified several times in her rider that she wants no citrus fruits!
6. Justin Bieber
The singer’s demands have gotten crazier as he’s gotten older.
He started with requesting lots of snack foods in 2010 to now asking for the luxurious things in life.
This includes things like a private jet on standby, a jacuzzi to take a dip in before he takes the stage, and an Indian Yoga casket.
Ah, to be young and rich.
7. Beyoncé
Don’t even think about bringing Coca-Cola near Bey since she’s contractually obligated to only promote Pepsi.
She was also very firm on needing “juicy baked chicken” that’s “HEAVILY SEASONED!!”
8. Christina Aguilera
One thing you’ll never catch Xtina doing is sitting in traffic.
When she’s on tour, she requires a police escort since she cannot “encounter any delays due to traffic.”
Hey, Xtina, can we borrow this to get to work everyday?
9. Katy Perry
With all the elaborate shows she puts on, Perry likes lots to snack on afterward.
Her 2011 dressing room had to be filled with things like organic dried apples and pears, a honey mustard and onion pretzel, and freeze-dried strawberries.
10. Joe Jonas
Joe Jonas is after our own heart!
He wants whatever city he’s in performing to provide him with 12 puppies .
And yeah, he also wants a beer, and meat pies because he’s a bro.
11. Lindsay Lohan
LiLo is really into politics.
Before she went on the Russian talk show, Let Them Talk , she demanded $650,000, a one-year visa, and, oh yeah, to meet Russian President Vladimir Putin.
