Mariah Carey is demanding
The Smoking Gun managed to get a hold of the rider for Mariah Carey's concert tour this year. And it's pretty interesting as it provides a glimpse into the mind of an insane person (no "busy patterns" - huh?). Among this highlights (actual rider is in the gallery here):

The Smoking Gun managed to get a hold of the rider for Mariah Carey's concert tour this year. And it's pretty interesting as it provides a glimpse into the mind of an insane person (no "busy patterns" - huh?). Among this highlights (actual rider is in the gallery here):
the bubbly has been replaced with a $200 bottle of cabernet sauvignon and her dressing room is outfitted with two dozen white roses and vanilla aromatherapy candles. As for the furniture in her "living room space," Carey wants "no busy patterns; black, dark grey, cream, dark pink are all fine." It is unclear what kind of negative effect plaid or tartan seating would have on the 41-year-old's performance. Carey's room "should be about 75 degrees," and a "lamp or clip light" should be provided so that "harsh lighting may be turned off" in her backstage bathroom.Besides that busy patterns thing, these requests are actually tame for Mariah. In the old days, she'd have expected there to be exotic animals, lavish bed sheets, and rare documents waiting for her in her room. Perhaps Mariah's finally started to mature and now realizes that those sorts of requests are outlandish and pretentious. Or, more likely, she just can't afford those things anymore since she went and hired yet another full time staff member.*
