Venere.com Announces Top Stories of Star Requests in the Most Beautiful Hotels!

ROME, August 2, 2010 - Mariah Carey, Michael Jackson, Salvador Dali, Nicole Kidman and lots of
other stars are well-known for their hotel demands which are sometimes as
bizarre as over-the-top. Venere.com publishes the top four celebrity stories
in hotels across London, Paris and Chicago, along with a link to bargain
bookings in the hotels where stars stayed and are remembered for their
scandalous requests.

Mariah Carey, the diva of the Baglioni Hotel (London)

Mariah Carey figures among the most eccentric and demanding of
all stars with whims as legendary as her hits. The New York Post recounts
that in 2005, the singer demanded that a red carpet should be rolled out
under her feet and that silver chandeliers should be lit when she stepped out
of her limousine in front of the Baglioni hotel in London. The diva also
demanded gold taps, new toilet seats, mineral water to fill her bath tub, and
DVD players that continually showing her own video clips. Money no object!

Michael Jackson, a childish whim at the Hempel Hotel (London)

Another worldwide star, adored by millions of fans, Michael Jackson also
had some strange requirements. In 2006, he demanded that the World Music
Awards commissions the booking of the entire London Hempel Hotel and
decorates his room in exchange for his appearance. To follow in the fairytale
footsteps of the composer of Billy Jean visit Venere.com and find out more

Salvador Dali, the Noah of the Hotel Meurice (Paris)

The behaviour of the extraordinary and fabulously eccentric
Salvador Dali had to be totally outrageous. This was the case, during his
stay at the Hotel Meurice where the master of surrealism, known for his
uncontrollable passion for animals, often stayed in his hotel room with all
sorts of wild animals often sharpening their claws on the hotel walls;
amongst them a horse and a flock of sheep. Dali demanded that the hotel staff
hunted flies in the Tuileries Gardens, few meters away from the hotel.
However, the great artist knew how to be generous and always rewarded the
staff, sometimes even with some of his works including lithographs, now worth
a small fortune!

Nicole Kidman, the princess and the pea at the Four Seasons (Chicago)

Another star's whim, this time that of the stunning actress
Nicole Kidman at the Four Seasons in Chicago, is worth mentioning. A few days
before the actress's arrival, very precise instructions and detailed
explanations were sent to the hotel management regarding the preparation of
her bed. All instructions were followed shortly before she cancelled her
stay!
