I once read that Dean Martin was claustrophobic, and hated elevators. He once walked 18 flights of stairs, just to avoid seeing an elevator door close on him. And I read somewhere that Johnny Carson had always despised Bob Hope, despite having him as a guest numerous times. Hope wasn’t spontaneous, and couldn’t be interviewed with out the aide of q cards, and Carson once told his staff, that “If I ever start acting like THAT guy, just shoot me”.

It happens so frequently that I lose track. It annoys me that on reading this question the first thought in my head was that salacious gossip some years ago over Richard Gere and a gerbil.

I read about a popstar once who only wanted one specific color M&Ms in their dressing room.

And another one who travelled the whole world tour with their own specific full body mirror.

I too remember hearing (or reading) of the m&m requirement, though I can’t recall exactly which prima donna responsible.

@rebel I remeber a rock star being asked about that. He defended it as an indication the promoter read the contract, which had other requirements for the stage equipment electrical standards. He said if they didn’t pay attention to the M&Ms, the electrical was probably wrong.

Arnold Schwarteneggar has a degree in economica.

@filmfann that’s Exactly what I remember regarding those m&ms. But WHO was it? Arnold was quite the exception regarding celebrity talent with an aptitude for governance.
