I don't like Beyonce much. I don't resent her because she's beautiful, by the way. It may have something to do with that whole fur issue. Anyway, she's added justification to my sense of righteous dislike by being a wee bit fussy with her rider when she appeared at the BBC Chart Show Live in Brighton at the weekend. Well, according to the Daily Mirror she was fussy. I expect we won't know until the rider appears on The Smoking Gun. Whatever.
Apparently she requested an unlimited supply of Pepsi Cola (fair enough, I might have done the same thing), Honeynut Cheerios (again, not outrageous), and turkey sandwiches (ditto). But here's where it gets a bit nitpicking - she asked that the room be heated to exactly 78 degrees, which she may have a reason for, but it does make her seem a bit diva-ish. A source said: "Beyoncé wants to make sure her vocal chords are in tip-top condition so she needs the temperature to be just right."
Personally, I am most offended by her request for a two man 'love seat'. Why exactly does she need one of those?
Stepping on stage in Brighton, she told the audience "It's great to be back in London!" I'm sure they were thrilled by that.
