Who are the real divas? How demands by Axl Rose, Foos and Metallica compare

 

  • Madonna: Apart from a 'recreation of her own home', Madonna demands flowers cut to six inches, 200 staff, a personal acupuncturist and 30 security staff.

With every tour comes backstage demands and with every new revealed rider, the lists get longer and more ridiculous.

Madonna's current MDNA tour is currently in full swing across the planet, but rather than ask for something to keep her breasts and bum covered, the megastar instead requests her entire home be recreated at every venue she visits - plus all her flowers must be precisely six inches long.

Meanwhile Britney Spears has recently issued her own list of extensive demands while working on X Factor USA and Beyonce's 'zen' tour rider has also been revealed this week.

But what of the rock and roll stars' demands? Axl Rose, Foo Fighters, Metallica and many more have their own enormous list of demands - so read on to find who the real divas of music are...
