Slams "Greedy" BBC Pop
superstar Mariah Carey has snubbed the BBC's Top Of The Pops programme after the show's
producers refused to meet the diva's notoriously extravagant dressing room demands. Carey
had asked for the BBC building to be painted pink then evacuated, to allow her personal
staff of 300 chefs to make her favourite pasta dish. The star also demanded a golden
diamond encrusted hat, a vintage traction engine, a team of 50 personal therapists, 1,000
Labrador puppies (to be kept out of sight at all times) and a life-sized ice sculpture of
herself, to be wheeled around the studio on a golden trolley pulled by the Queen.
Initial requests for the star to scale
down her demands seemed only to inflame the situation. A source told us "we received
a fax from her 'people' telling us that Mariah likes everything just-so, and that the
slightest thing could upset her performance. Far from scaling down her demands, Carey
asked us for everything on the first list, plus two tons of gold, a monkey and a
spaceship".
