The biggest celebrities in the entertainment industry can be a little over-the-top sometimes. In fact, they can make some of the most absurd demands in their performance contract. Some of the most ridiculous requirements must be met. Here are some of our favorite celebrities’ crazy demands.
Justin Timberlake
Did you know that former NSYNC singer, Justin Timberlake requires that the doorknobs be cleaned before he touches them? Moreover, these demands might even need a bit of financial planning in order for some of them to be met.
Beyonce
American singer-songwriter, Beyonce, is the most sought-after pop star in the entertainment industry. With that being said she has her fair share of requests. She needs her dressing room to be set to a specific temperature all the time – 78 degrees to be exact. In addition to that, due to her contract with Pepsi, you can never bring a Coca-Cola product near her. After all, she will not be able to drink that.
When it comes to Beyonce’s food, she requires heavily seasoned and baked chicken wings, legs, and breasts with some savory hot sauce. This request is written as part of her hospitality rider. After all, she is the ultimate Queen B, with her jaw-dropping net worth of $355 million, along with her amazing property investments, she is allowed to have the strangest demands.
Justin Bieber
Everybody’s favorite Candian singer, Justin Bieber, is now one of the highest-paid celebrities in the world. In fact, his net worth is already up to $285 million and it is still growing. We hope that he has a financial advisor who helps him oversee his assets. However, when he was just rising to stardom and beginning to gain recognition for his talents, Justin’s rider was pretty simple.
Back in 2010, he only wanted a lot of snacks, after all, he was just a teenager at the time. Eleven years later and it all changed completely, his demands rose as high as his career did. These days, Justin needs a private jet ready at his disposal for any of his travels. He also requires a massage table because being a celebrity can get too stressful sometimes. If you think that does not seem absurd enough for a celeb, Justin’s demands include ten luxury Sedans.
Will Ferrell
One of the funniest comedians in the entertainment industry, Will Ferrell, who acquired his Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Southern California, is extremely famous these days. Given the fact that he is naturally funny, he has made some absurd requests and we are not sure if they were all met. After all, we were never sure how serious he was about these demands.
His rider once included a flight of stairs on wheels and an electric three-wheel mobility scooter. However, the oddest will have to be a fake rainbow on wheels and a tree on wheels. He must have a thing for wheels.
Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift is one of the best singer-songwriters of the 21st century. She has received widespread critical praise for narrative lyricism, so it comes as no surprise that she is now a high-profile celebrity with great investments. Despite all the fame and glory that she has received from being an amazing pop star, Taylor has a very simple demand. Like every red-blooded American out there, she loves Starbucks. She requires her order of a Grande Iced Americano with two Sweet-N-Lows and soy milk, a slice of Pumpkin loaf, and a Grande Iced Caramel Latte with 2 Sweet-N-Lows to be brought to her before 11:00 am every day.
George Clooney
Academy Award winner George Clooney is one of the wealthiest actors in the entertainment industry. This 60-year-old superstar has a jaw-dropping net worth of $500 million, complete with assets, real estate, and investments. Given the fact that he is a successful sought-after actor, it seems normal for a guy in his standing to have the most absurd demands. For the making of the critically acclaimed film, Gravity, George had made an excessive request. He required a custom-made beach hut and basketball court installed near his trailer on-set.
