Comments Thread For: Floyd Mayweather's Australian Tour Demands Outlined

[antrecasner]

Does this dude really bring a mascot with him....that's hilarious.

[The Big Dunn]

This is the kind of stuff that MULTI-MILLIONAIRES do ... don't have to be rock stars.

When divas and actors/actresses are about to go to work they do stuff like this-gummy bears and a barber. Most of us get haircuts before we go on vacation. I got a baldy to so I just bring extra razor blades, not a barber lol.

He's got it so I guess he can spend it as he wishes. but those demands were a little over the top IMO.

Dunn Is this really you or did someone steal your Identity?

It's me, why? I have a ton of posts like this. Just a certain segment of NSB pretends otherwise just because I like Floyd and don't blame him for the fight not happening.

He is a star.

Any MAN should be full of himself.
Maybe you should try it sometime.

Nobody gave him anything...he earned it.

True. We all have our quirks, but this stuff just seemed over the top to me. I'm not mad at him living however he wants to. But gummy bears and M&M's-that's just over the top for ya boy Dunn.

There's a thin line between flossin and diva.

Here's a sampler for J-Lo




1. Kanye West
On the same day M.I.A.'s ludicrous request surfaced, a rider leaked from Kanye West's recent visit to Australia. On the list: Imported and recut Versace towels, for starters. "What else would he wipe his brow with during a performance?" says Ray Rahman at Entertainment Weekly. But more unusual is his requirement that any chauffeur who drives him wear only 100 percent cotton clothes. "No man-made fibers."

2. Britney Spears
Britney demanded a veritable feast when she performed at London's 02 arena last year, requesting that the venue provide her with McDonald's cheeseburgers (no buns), 100 figs and prunes, and ***8212; fitting for the location ***8212; a fish-and-chips supper. But all that pales in comparison with her strangest dressing room request: A framed photo of Princess Diana. "Britney adores the monarchy," says the U.K.'s Mirror. "Diana was in many ways her inspiration."

3. Foo Fighters
The Foo Fighters may have the most "hilarious" backstage rider of all time, says Simon Vozick-Levinson at Rolling Stone. The rockers are known for sneaking jokes into their list of demands, and topped themselves with a cheeky rider for their 2011 world tour. It included a coloring book, activity pages, and maxims for life: "No one likes a straight A student." The funniest page of the document provides an illustrated guide to the kind of catering the band expects. A drawing of a sandwich with a pile of rocks is branded "Lame Entree," while a steak and baked potato sketch is described as an "Awesome Entree."

4. Mary J. Blige
Thirty-five cities, 35 toilet seats. That's the takeaway from Mary J. Blige's 2006 tour rider, which demanded that each venue install a brand new toilet seat in the dressing room bathroom before she arrived. She also cherishes her privacy. Her request that housekeeping personnel at the hotels she stays at honor her "Do Not Disturb" sign is punctuated by 26 exclamation points.

5. Dustin Diamond
Don't call him Screech. The former Saved by the Bell actor turned reality TV and amateur **** star demands that any event he is booked for refrain from any "Screech-centric" billing. Any venue that violates this stipulation by promoting the event using his ties to Saved by the Bell will be levied with a $100 fine for every offending ad, flyer, or marquee.

6. Katy Perry
Kanye West isn't the only entertainer to have special demands for his driver. For her 2011 U.S. tour, Katy Perry had a 23-point "principle driver policy" that specifically dictated the proper behavior of those tasked with carting her around. One explicit rule, according to the policy, is that drivers must not converse with Perry. The Smoking Gun reports that they "also are directed not to stare at the backseat through the rearview mirror."

7. Justin Bieber
The current prince of pop's tour rider is suitably "squeaky clean," says The Smoking Gun, noting his reasonable requests for fruit platters and herbal teas. Apparently, he also requires his entourage's wardrobe be just as clean, as he also demands four packages of plain white tee shirts and three packages of lo-rise socks ***8212; all in various sizes ***8212; be stocked in his dressing room.

8. Jennifer Lopez
Just because she was making a charity appearance doesn't mean Jennifer Lopez was going to ease up on her diva demands. While attending a recording session for the African AIDS charity single "What's Going On" in 2002, she submitted her standard tour rider, which demanded a 40-foot trailer furnished all in white from top to bottom ***8212; flowers, tablecloths, d****ry, couches, candles***8230; everything. "Love don't cost a thing," says Gary Susman at Entertainment Weekly. "But being a diva sure can be expensive."

Yeah, shes a crazy diva biyatch that needs 3 gay guys just to do her hair, clothes and make up. you expect this stuff from her.

I understand handling your business down to the very detail-that's what really successful people do. but this is a vacation.

Homie, I'm all for taking care of my peoples when my pockets are deep. done it many times. but this is just crazy IMO. this that kanye isht and that mofo is just full of himself.

edit-you added kanye after my response LOL. they are both geniuses at what they do, but they are just too much for me.

Totally agree!!!

I wonder how ridiculous I would be, if I was making upwards of 70Million a year plus royalties.

[Yogi007]

Here I thought Cotto was the diva, but now I clearly see that Floyd is the queen of divas.

I hear you my dude. I'm paying for my homies and my security if I'm Floyd, I'm not bringing hoes and a barber FFS. I get you might want to bring your chef, especially if vegemite is the only thing on the menu. lol.

Imagine if Kanye nd Floyd went on vacation together. bwahahahahaha

[alexguiness]

Who is this? Mariah Carey?

Anyway an entourage of 31....... I predict that Floyd sadly will be broke about 15 years after his last fight.

Exactly - Rock stars get royalties and tour all their career.

Floyd has no investments - he will be flat ass broke before he is 50.

He is just a child, like Michael Jackson.

[Ruthless One]

No gummy bears, no fight.

Je suis Hitler Mayweather

Flowmos: Heil, Floyd! (then proceeds to smell his buttcrack)
