Paid Attention to Celebs' Most Ridiculous Backstage Demands(Party One)

Do You Know Who I Am?!
The irony of Mick Jagger singing "You Can't Always Get What You Want," at the height of the Rolling Stones' popularity in 1969 was that Jagger and co. could indeed get whatever they wanted. All they had to do was put it in a concert rider. These days the Stones' wildest demand is for a backstage snooker table, but not all stars are so modest. From chaffeur instructions to specific food requests, these asks give new meaning to the phrase "high maintenance."

Jay-Z
Jay-Z is used to riding in style, and he expects nothing less when he's playing a show. Jay asks that his venue transportation be a late-model black Mayback (either a 57 or 62 model, preferably). Once backstage, Jay likes to sip on some of the finest of alcoholic beverages, including two bottles of $300 champagne and two $200 bottles of 2004 Sassicaia, which is described as a "red Italian wine from Bolgheri region." Quite the highbrow tastes for Mr. Z.

Beyonce
Beyonce's demands are pretty modest, but she is very specific about her poultry needs. In its own section on Bey's rider is a "Juicy Baked Chicken" with the instruction, "Please season with fresh garlic, season salt, black pepper, and Cayenne pepper HEAVILY SEASONED!!"

Kanye West
Does it surprise anyone that Kanye West is rather particular when it comes to his green room requests? 'Ye is big on skin care, requesting that hand sanitizer, Nivea Intensive Lotion, Neutrogena face scrub, and Carmex lip balm be waiting for him upon arrival. He's a big Pepsi guy, and explicitly states there are to be "NO COKE PRODUCTS" among his refreshments. Finally, when it comes to his chauffeurs, West only rides with drivers who are wearing 100 percent cotton, "no man-made fibers."

Katy Perry
When Katy Perry is on tour she wants her dressing room outfitted in a very specific way. It's to be draped in cream or soft pink linens and adorned with fresh flowers, but "ABSOLUTELY NO CARNATIONS." And if you're one of Perry's drivers, don't assume she wants to be your friend. Her rider notes that drivers are not allowed to "start a conversation with the client," and are not to make eye-contact with her via the rear-view mirror.

Mariah Carey
Who drinks Cristal with a bendy straw? Mariah Carey that's who, so if you plan on booking her, you better provide both backstage.

Jennifer Lopez
Aside from her all-white dressing room accents, Jennifer Lopez has a few food and drinks on her list of demands. Fruit is a big one — mango, green seedless grapes, pineapple, cantaloupe, papaya, watermelon — and that apple pie she wants better be a la mode. Also, J.Lo needs her Evian water served at room temperature. No excuses.

Justin Bieber
Justin Bieber isn't one for controversy, and his celebrity rider is right in line with that reputation (mixed nuts, fruit, and bottled water don't really tip the diva scale). However, Biebz is big into plain white shirts and socks. If you want to book the pop star, you'll need to buy dozens of packages of crew neck and V-neck T-shirts, tank tops, and low-rise socks ranging from size extra small to extra large.

Britney Spears
Britney Spears does not tolerate phone calls. If her dressing room phone gets an incoming call, she charges the venue a $5,000 fine. As for catering requests, Britney's list not surprisingly includes a few junk food items like Doritos, KFC, Pop Tarts, and Captain Crunch. Don't worry, she asks for a vegetable tray too.

Christina Aguilera
No one likes traffic, but Christina Aguilera refuses to get stuck in gridlock, which is why she requires a police escort to and from the venue. When Christina arrives at the venue (in a timely manner, of course), her dressing room is supposed to be stocked full of everything from Oreos to soy cheese to Nesquick to Flintstones Chewable Vitamins.

Keeping Up with the Kardashians by tweeting a pic of her and sisters Khloe and Kourtney over the weekend

Kim Kardashian knows how to market her brand! The 31-year-old reality star simultaneously built buzz for her line of lingerie with Sears, and Keeping Up with the Kardashians by tweeting a pic of her and sisters Khloe and Kourtney over the weekend.

The image comes from the Kardashian Kollection and features Kim, Khloe and Kourtney in a variety of skin-baring outfits. Kim posted the image with the reminder that, "Season 7 of Keeping Up With the Kardashians" started Sunday.

For those curious about the seventh season, the word is Kim's new boyfriend, Kanye West, will indeed be making multiple appearances. Most recently Kim and the family were spotted out shopping in London while filming the show, where Scott Disick modeled a coat that looked half Elizabethan costume and half Halloween party pimp.

Miley Cyrus Faced Her 'Biggest Heartbreak' at 14

Keep in mind that Cyrus has been dating Liam Hemsworth for several years. I imagine everything about him is magical.

If you happen to be chilling in the French Riviera next week, consider RSVPing for a screening of Cruel Summer, a film inspired by the upcoming G.O.O.D. Music compilation of the same name. There's little known about the flick, except that some scenes were filmed in Qatar, Aziz Ansari and Kid Cudi star, and 'Ye was apparently influenced by Bananarama.

Van Halen has postponed all tour dates from July through September without explanation. Though the band members stand to make millions off the gigs, a source told Rolling Stone they "hate each other," adding, "The band is arguing like mad. They are fighting."

Halen is just like that couple that gets into blowout fights as entertainment. They could change their minds by next week and no one would be surprised.

50 Cent underwent surgery to remove a blockage in his small intestine, but he's doing A-OK. The rapper was in top Twitter form by Wednesday, when he posted a picture of himself surrounded by stuffed animals with the caption, "Do not do a @djdrama gangsta grillz this is all I get. Ain't this a b*tch. I give 15 tracks you give me this."

Don't be fooled by the naughty language; dude's clearly a total softie.

Bono is on his way to becoming the world's richest musician. The Irish singer's private-equity firm, Elevation Partners, owns a 2.3 percent stake in Facebook, but he's not drawing in all the mad cash (about $1.5 billion), as there are other investors involved. He also stated, "We do get paid, and that is a good thing. I'm blessed. But, you know, I felt rich when I was 20 years old and my wife was paying my bills. Just being in a band, I've always felt like this."

Make this more artsy for Pink and you could win $1000.

Pink fans with digital art skills: Design the performer's new official Facebook timeline image using this photo as your base, and you could win a framed copy of your own work, a feature on her social media channels (14 million Facebook fans... no big deal) and a thousand bucks.

Riff Raff is like that creepy dude who works at the convenience store by your school who has really pretty eyes but maybe no teeth of his own so you don't admit to your friends that you think he's kind of sexy? But not really? And his video for "Time" reveals what he's like beyond the dreadlocks (but not without the grills). He's just a mellow guy who has to keep the TV in order to fall asleep.

Miley Cyrus totally had her heart broken by a Jonas brother. Kanye West has announced his new film Cruel Summer will premiere May 23 at Cannes. Van Halen has postponed a bunch of tour dates, leading many to speculate that maybe the band members' hatred for each other has won out yet again. And 50 Cent had an operation, but he's recovering with the help of some stuffed animals.

For someone who faces criticism over pretty much everything she does, Miley Cyrus comes across as a remarkably confident and well-spoken young woman in her segment on Conversation with Amanda de Cadenet, an alternative interview series on Lifetime. In addition to the young star's reflections on how Disney media training shaped her sense of self, Cyrus revealed that she faced the worst breakup of her life when she was just 14 years old.

Asked what advice she'd give her teenage self now, Cyrus explained, "This too shall pass... that's something I so needed to remember. When you're that young—even now, if anything happens, it's the end of the world, it's the end of your world... I had my biggest heartbreak when I was 14, even though that sounds crazy, 'cause I was 14, but that was what love was to me. I was in love somebody, I was in love with this person that I thought was perfect and so amazing and so when you get your heart broken that's all you see, like, 'The rest of my life is ruined because he doesn't love me back!'"

Cyrus also discusses her thoughts on sex being used as currency in the music world and beyond, opining, "Sex actually is really beautiful. It's the only way we create and it's the only way the world keeps going. So it's ignorant to not talk to your kids about it or make it seem as magical as it actually is."
