Jennifer
Hudson's Starbucks Gig Scrapped Over Agent's Demands
3/24/07
Oscar winner Jennifer Hudson missed out on a lucrative corporate gig
deal because her demands upset organizers.
The Dreamgirls
star was slated to perform at coffee chain Starbucks' annual shareholders
meeting in Seattle, Washington, but the company bosses balked at her needs
and pulled the plug on the show.
According to website TMZ, the singer wanted five cars, hair and make-up
artists, security, humidifiers and chicken wings all paid for as part of
her deal.
And when Starbucks Chairman Howard Schultz saw the rider list, he
cancelled the show because he didn't like the way the agent was dealing
with his people.
Sources claim Hudson knew nothing about the demands that were being
made on her behalf.
