The Best (And Worst) From Our Celebrity Series
For our celebrity series all this week, we’ve told you about Diva Demands by the likes of Nicole Kidman and Barbra Streisand, What Men (like Paul McCartney and Russell Brand) Want, the Political Persuasions of public figures like Dick Cheney and Bill Clinton (as well as some helpful hotel housekeeping tips from Colin Powell), and some of the more out-there Celebrity Hotel ventures like Olivia Newton-John’s nature retreat, and Jay-Z’s 99 Hotel Problems. Today, we thought we’d wrap up the series with a look back at some of the best celebrity requests we came across.

What Men Want: Blackout Drapes, Air Filters and Again, Stripper Poles
Yesterday we told you all about the Diva Demands that some of the world’s best-known female celebrities make when they stay at their hotels of choice. Today we thought we’d share the requests some of their male counterparts make. Spoiler alert! Turns out the boys are just as prissy as the girls, but we bet you already guessed that from your hours and hours of watching Gossip Girl.

Peach Colored Tissues, Stripper Poles and Other Outrageous Celebrity Hotel Demands
You know that famous story about Van Halen demanding M&M’s with all the brown ones removed in their dressing room before concerts? Well, that got us thinking: What do world-famous celebrities these days demand of the hotels they stay in? As we found out after a little bit of digging, the answer is quite a lot. All this week, we’ll share some of the more bizarre, befuddling, and downright diva-licious celebrity demands we came across. Oh, and for the real story behind those Van Halen M&M’s, see what Snopes has to say about it.
When investigating this topic, it became clear right away that divas of the music and theatrical world were at the top for craziest demands. Babs, Mariah, J-Lo and Britney are all very particular about their homes away from homes.

Dear Jordan, Please Don't Open a Hotel. Thanks.
Think she’ll welcome guests like this?
Ah, Jordan/Katie Price (whichever name you're inhabiting at the mo). We like you, we really do. We think you’re spunky, we love how you seem utterly indifferent to public derision, we’re glad you’ve split up with that drippy Peter Andre, and you’re clearly a phenomenal businesswoman.
And yet, we would prefer to admire your business skills from afar please. Which means sticking to your childrens books and your underwear business and not dipping a fake-tanned foot into the hotel trade, because that makes us feel a little bit sick.

Would You Stay in The Posh Spice Hotel?

Well, move over Marc Jacobs. It looks like dubious fashion designer, former Spice girl and ultimate WAG priestess Victoria Beckham might beat you in designing a fashion hotel first.
According to reports swirling about today, Posh Spice has been offered $40 million to design a fashion-themed hotel in Dubai on Isla Moda. Yes, $40 mill for Posh Spice-influenced design. Guess there's still money to be had in Dubai afterall.
However, Posh can't be trusted to design a hotel by herself otherwise we'd probably just end up with rooms inspired by platform Louboutins and Hermes bags. No, no, no. The word is that iconic Chanel designer, Karl Lagerfeld, will be brought on to help her out.
Despite how silly this idea is, we sorta hope this hotel happens but with more Uncle Karl involved than VB. The word is Victoria is still mulling the offer. She better act quick. Someone may offer Lindsay Lohan money to create a fashion-leggings hotel in Dubai instead.

The Sky Lodge's Bar To Star As Another Bar at Sundance this Sunday

Imagine this room is gold, and that the guy at the bar is Orlando Bloom.
So, Sundance started today. If you’re a movie buff, stalker, fashion publicist, or a member of the paparazzi, you probably knew that. If you don’t happen to be au fait with the Sundance tradition of screenings, glam ski gear, swag, and parties, let us fill you in: it’s all pretence. Even the parties are playing make believe this year. Case in point, Sunday night’s “Funday” party at Park City’s Sky Lodge.

Does Angelina Jolie Have a New Kinky Sex Hotel?

When we heard last week that Angelina Jolie's kinky sex hotel in Los Angeles, The Raffles L'Ermitage, was turning into the Viceroy Beverly Hills, we wondered where AJ would be turning for a replacement.
But it seems she already has one--The Waldorf-Astoria.
Usually when Ang heads to NYC she shacks up in the ritzier Waldorf Towers which is connected to the older hotel. The reason being? More space and way nicer rooms. However, the hotel doesn't have discreet hotel staffers.
In Jezebel's awesome weekly tabloid round-ups, they covered InTouch magazine report that Angelina had an affair with a foreign dialect coach. How did the gossip rag find out? A chatty former housekeeper, of course.

Adam Lambert 'Trashes' The Hotel Angeleno
But don't worry, it was just for a music video.
American Idol runner-up, Glambert, and friends hit up a room at the Hotel Angeleno to film a promotional spot for Vevo, a new music video website that launched last month.
The video intersperses shots of the hotel with Glambert and his friends "trashing" one of the rooms to one of his songs. Glambert takes a flat-screen TV off the wall and throws it out the window, then he begins jumping on the bed while his friends crawl around on the floor.
There's also a Stifler's mom type of lady walking around the room, clutching the remote control and crying about the loss of the TV until Glambert tells her "There's Vevo, you don't need this." And promptly throws the remote control out of the window.
As for the "trashing", it's pretty benign. But it really does look like they threw a TV out the window of the Angeleno which is kinda cool. Then again, it took a lot of effort to get the hotel world to convert to flat-screen TVs in the guestrooms and this is how Glambert repays them?

The Always Classy Seminole Hard Rock Hotel to Throw Trashtastic Super Bowl Parties

Snooki pole-danced here, Steven Tyler fought here, and Anna Nicole died here. Is it any wonder the Seminole Hard Rock Hollywood is getting trashtastic for the Super Bowl?
Last year, Entourage star Johnny Drama—sorry, Kevin Dillon—hosted the big-game weekend festivities at the sister property in Tampa. This year, while there'll be celebs and players galore, the focus is on the flesh. The week leading up to the game on February 7 is awash with bikini babes—there's a pool party featuring a fashion show by the Kardashians' boutique Dash, the Lingerie Bowl, and Penthouse Magazine's Super Party. Oh, and ladies, we almost forgot! For you—Jamie Foxx.

Can You Book a Hotel Room for Derek Jeter's Wedding?

So apparently Derek Jeter and Minka Kelly are getting married next year if this report in the NY Post is to be believed. According to their undercover reporters, #2 and Minka are set to marry on November 5, 2010 at the Oheka Castle in Huntington, Long Island where recently the Jonas Brother, Kevin, got married.
Yet Oheka is not just a fancy castle where the rich and famous get married. You can actually spend the night there in one of the castle's 32 hotel rooms.
That is, if the cheesy copy on the website hasn't made you too queasy. A standout line?
Pamper yourself and your spouse with an in-room togetherness massage.

Before The Hangover (and Renee) Bradley Cooper Was a Hotel Doorman

A man in uniform, holding the hotel door open for us, candles flickering … Let’s make that Bradley Cooper in uniform, flashing us that smile … Oops. Hello there! Yes, you caught us daydreaming, but if we had a time machine this could have been a reality. Back in the late '90s when Morgans was the hottest hotel in New York City, it had a doorman to match: future Hollywood heartthrob Bradley Cooper.
The Hangover star was on Letterman last week, chatting about his gig at the first Morgans Hotel, which apparently involved lighting up the lobby in more ways than one. Part of the job description was keeping the tea lights dotted around the room lit when gusts of wind from the door opening blew them out.

Snooki Takes it to The Pole at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel

While some clubs in NYC and even Hoboken have denied the cast of 'Jersey Shore' for paid club appearances, it seems that in Hollywood, Fla., there is no shame in hiring Snooki to do some pole-dancing for a night.
Snickers, aka Snooki, aka Nicole Polizzi was partying at the Seminole Hard Rock and Casino on Saturday night where the Opium Nightclub held its first-ever Saturdays Love the 'Jersey Shore'" night complete with a fist pumping competition.
According to Snook's Twitter feed, she was chillin at the hotel in a room before heading out to the nightclub. But unfortch, she Twittered that "i forgot my clips! no poof tonight!" Still she managed to have fun getting on the pole for the evening.
And to think, it only took her getting punched in the face for everyone to realize that yo, she's a cool girl.
