Usually, when celebrities demand things backstage, they get them. However it looks like someone at Starbucks put their foot down and refused to give in to idol-turned-diva Jennifer Hudson.
Apparently Jennifer was supposed to perform at the annual Starbucks shareholder meeting in Seattle. However, according to TMZ, after her agent made some zany demands, Starbucks pulled the plug on the performance. Turns out that Chairman Howard Schultz didn't like the way her agent was dealing with his people and said enough is enough.
So what were the zany demands? Try FIVE town cars (herself, hair and makeup artists, security, and her assistant), humidifiers backstage and baked chicken wings at 10:00am. I guess it was the chicken wings that was just too much. However, in Jennifer's defense, she apparently didn't know about the demands, her team came up with them all on their own.
Chicken wings... at 10am? At that time of day I'm more about fresh yogurt, muffins and pancakes. I'd probably demand eggs benedict and waffles... How about you guys, if you were a famous diva, what would you demand at 10am?
Twenty8Twelve
7 For All Mankind
Figleaves
a really yummy 10am demand for me would be tea and croissants, definitely attainable.
1I would demand a bouquet of a half-dozen monomeria barbata, and a cart to follow me around with ice cold water (but not iced. Just cold enough for a thin top layer to be frozen)fresh pasta, fresh baked bread, sliced fruit, and steamed veggies. It's not too much to ask, right?
2I'm all about Belgin waffles or French Toast and Mamosas!!!
310am? pancakes topped with whipped cream and fruit. yuummm...
And as for Hudson's
defense.. blaming it on her team?? tsk tsk. D-I-V-A
4mm.. french toast and mamosas! good idea LilPeaPod
5Starbucks coffee! and some fresh pastries and muffins
6I think a lot of times the outrageous demands come from "the staff" since that's the only way they get what they want. I'm sure all the food and drinks that artists request are really for their people. Ditto the extra cars and such. I mean, if you were the assitant making the arrangements and you had the ability to make it happen, wouldn't you request your own car and your favorite foods too?
7Hmmm... always craving for Coffee Jelly Frap! Yum, yum.
8At 10am I'd demand a half of grapefruit and a bottle of cold water. mmmm. it's so refreshing in the morning.
9another thing...
10what is with the giant rock on jHud's very important left ring finger, is she engaged?
i would demand a tv to watch the ellen show, a nice comfy couch and a cute guy to be my cuddle buddy.
11That's pretty sad that she is blaming on her team, for some reason I find it easy to believe that it was her. Why would her team want a humidifier?
Well, I would want Starbucks!!
Potato pancakes from Perkins too, maybe 
12Um... how about some Starbucks? I'd demand quite a few non-fat cappuccinos. And banana walnut pancakes. And cinnamin coffee cake. And some fresh cantaloup and mango. And raspberries. And some granola. Maybe some yoplait yogurt...
Wait a minute... am I turning into a diva too?
13fresh fruit, granola, tea and no one to bug me. aw, what a nice morning, huh?
14buffalo wings at 10am sounds off... I don't it's just odd to think that people are so demanding!
15Unfortunately, I am addicted to the Starbucks low-fat blueberry coffee cake. I probably would ask for about ten pounds of that.
16an egg white omelet. filled with whatever is striking my fancy that day-- but it will probably involve shrimp!
17well, if i was to go completely over the top...
18I'd demand a private room with a flatscreen tv with basic cable and a refridgerator stocked with Coca cola and Publix premium chocolate chocolate chip ice cream. I too would order buffalo wings with a hint of a sweet tasting sauce ON THE SIDE. And Of course I'd need two to three town cars for my own entourage, and sound system that has the audio to Mean Girls playing on a loop. And some lavender scented candles. Yep. that should do it.
She forgot about how she wanted a big bowl of M&Ms, but only the green ones, cause she's too cool to eat the yellow ones.
19I heard it was her agent that made all those requests. Not her. They said she didn't find out about it til later.
20Fresh fruit with creme and a vanilla latte!
21non-fat lattes and blueberry pancakes with lots of maple syrup. And some fresh fruit, maybe a banana and some raspberries. If I were famous I'd get really fat!! And that's BS that she pinned the blame on her agent, Jennifer is such a diva wannabe you totally know she requested all that sh*t.
22ccsugar you're making me hungry.
23George Clooney.
24A ham and cheese croissant from Tartine, a double latte (NOT from Starbucks), raspberries, a manicurist, pedicurist, a psychic and a massage therapist. (While we're being outlandish...)
25haha lonewolf and gigglesugar!!
26fresh orange juice + carrot cake
27A fresh fruit platter
28Cinnamon Raisin Scones
Mint tea
Fresh Flowers
A table top fountain
And a Massage
What a great way to start a fantasy day (smile)
Id be fine with a cup of tea and a granola bar for petes sake!
29Mmmm, I would demand breakfast like I had it in France-- fresh croissants and baguettes, fresh butter, some fruit and french pressed coffee with cream. Delish!
30Coffee, cream, and a box of Equal. Some kind of food, just not fruit.
31Hook me up with my own barista and I'd be set. I love my Venti Soy Caramel Dulce Latte.
32i would request my own barrista! seriously, this is starbucks!
33i would also want some vanilla cupcakes, cheese danishes, and blueberry muffins. who eats chicken wings at 10am? that's ridiculous. not only that, chicken wings are gross.
Love it. Great story yumsugar. I love divas.
34Fresh flowers.
35Berries and fruit juice.
Biscuits (I love them!).
Poached eggs for protein.
A NF latte.
And, of course, the humidifier for my diva voice.
I would have asked for a white chocolate mocha latte's decaf, cinnamon scones, and water. And some gum for afterwards.
btw, She should fire her people.
Style Before Comfort!
36i would demand a moca frap LOL
37She needs new peoples if they are demanding all of these things for her. Kudos to her talent but when does that make you unappreciative of just having a gig to go to? There are countless other divas who would give up the sequined dresses and false eyelashes for another go at it. JHud's people need to get a reality check!
38Yummy blueberry pancakes and eggs!!!
39Crispy Creme Donuts, Steak Tacos and Turkey Tamales with green sauce!! Don't forget my rice water or HEADS WILL ROLL!!! I believe JH knew about all of those demands now she playing dumb! She's been famous for less than a year and I'm Sick of her already!! She don't need to be eating wings, Sweetie, Try a SALAD!!!!
40tons of ice cold water with straws, Belgian waffles, sugar free syrup, fresh blueberries, fat free cottage cheese and mimosas.
41Tons of ice tea (orange flavoured) and all kinds of fruit.
