Beyonce demands red toilet paper backstage
By Alexandra Heilbron on May 2, 2013 | 17 Comments
Beyoncé may not be the first name that pops into your head when you think of celebrities with insane demands, but that’s about to change. It’s been reported that she’s been making odd requests backstage on her current world tour. These requests included 100% pure cotton shirts for her staff and crew, specialty alkaline water served at 21 degrees, a freshly painted white dressing room, installation of a new toilet seat, and a ban on junk food. Most of these requests are slightly demanding, but nothing we’re not used to seeing from big-name stars. The cotton shirts are attributed to allergies and the junk food ban to a strict dietary regimen. However, one of her requests was definitely bizarre and seemingly unexplainable. The singer apparently demanded red toilet paper. Earlier this week, there were reports that the star refused to use the brand new change rooms at a concert venue and opted to use the larger rooms generally provided to sports teams. ~ Stacy Raivich

I didn’t even know they made red toilet paper.
Probably for similar reasons that Van Halen used to ask for M&M’s with the brown ones removed because if they found brown M&M’s it meant that they didn’t read the venue didn’t read the ryder and could be missing some important info.
Why would she want red toilet paper anyway?
Spoiled celebs. She should be grateful for having any toilet paper at least. Many people can’t afford the basic toilet paper. :-/
Jim makes a lot of sense. If you miss a small detail you could miss a big one. I am willing to give the benefit of the doubt. But i will never see Beyonce in concert so I don’t give a shi…oops, I realized I was about to make a really crappy joke.
OOPS I did it again!
Oh no, that wasn’t Beyonce!
I wouldn’t use for 2 reasons 1) what chemical is being used to make it red & 2) from a medical angle – if you’re bleeding at all, you’ll never know.
Exactly what is her claim to fame… gyrating lewdly in barely there costumes. She deserves special requests and treatment for that. Celebs who command these stupid things have to come back down to planet earth.
Beyonce is an idiot! Plain and simple! She thinks she is so great but in fact she looks like a man … Instead of red toilet paper she deserves a Chris brown punch to the face
Ok, I get the allergies and I can understand the diet, so that’s a good thing. But the tp??? Really? What possible reason is there for that?
Mark, really, a ‘Chris Brown punch to the face’? it’s obvious your Mother ensured you were raised to be a wonderful addition to society in general. Congratulations on that.
I’m hoping it’s for the same reason that Van Halen used to ask for the brown M & M s to be removed. In spite of all the silly things in riders, like only a particular brand of water, etc, there are very, very important things regarding the technical demands of the show, what kind of rigging is available, the electrical demands (not enough power means the system can shut down), how much local crew is needed, etc. Having a few crazy demands is visual proof that the promoter has paid attention to the rider and the actual more important things on it. Now that the red toilet paper thing is known, they’ll put something else frivolous on there, just to keep promoters on their toes.
The first few requests sound considerate… but what’s the big deal about red toilet paper? It’s a big excessive B…
yeah hope is to see if promoter is paying attention to detail cuz every health professional will tell you toilet paper of any color (meaning its dyed) is NOT good for a woman’s personal hygiene, a yeast infection could be the very least of her problems. I cant stand Beyonce and her i am so perfect persona but really saying she should be punched in her face? Not kosher at all.
The stupid bitch. She’s pathetic.
Beyonce needs to get off her high horse and stop being such a Diva! theres nothing uglier than an ungrateful celebrity… she needs to focus on her music and not RED toilet paper where come countries dont even have any!! I used to look up to Beyonce since i was 11 years old.. shes just getting more and more ridiculous and faker as the years go by,,, She tries too hard and she doesnt have to!!
It is probably because her sh*t doesnt stink.
At the very best, she comes off as an above average street walker. What she claims as music, is just bad noise. Luckily, I haven’t contributed 5 cents to her, or her husbands earnings. Talk about fake people!
