Diva Behavior Reports

[BobbyD 2]

(Pagesix.com)KIMORA'S FURY IT takes quite a performance to be dubbed a diva in the midst of Fashion Week. Kimora Lee Simmons managed to impress at the Fashion Rocks for Baby Phat event at Radio City Music Hall last Thursday. According to one source, Ki mora was ruling backstage like a tyrant, yelling at staffers and throwing tantrums. "She was in rare form, behaving like an ogre, and screaming at people that this or that was wrong," says the source. Mean while, hubby Russell Simmons acted like a teddy bear. Reports the snitch: "Their behavior was 180 degrees apart." Sim mons' rep did not return calls.

(Pagesix.com)MADE THE LIST BAD tippers, beware the Web site bitterwaitress.com, where servers post reports on the celebrities they encounter. The submissions are anonymous and uncorroborated, and it is certain that every celebrity identified will dispute he or she is a bad tipper. The latest target is Sean Penn (above), who was famously photographed in New Orleans rescuing Katrina victims and carrying a shotgun. Says one server of Penn and three others: "Waited on them hand and foot. The bill: $450. The tip: none. Cheapskate!" The list also includes Bill Cosby, Bruce Willis, Britney Spears, Maggie Gyllenhaal and Kirsten Dunst.

"Vince Vaughn is never serious and he is as prejudice as they come."

 

I was just reading through this site (which is very interesting by the way) and came across this quote. I wonder if he is the answer to the blind item about the prejudice celebrity.

[Freckles 79]

Nah. He was never in a long-running TV show.

(Pagesix.com)COPIOUS COIN BRUCE Willis can't be a bad tipper, his friend George Sheinberg says — he was a bartender. "Bruce is extremely generous," says Sheinberg, a former Bulova watch biggie who has partied with Willis in St. Tropez. Sheinberg has a theory as to how Willis was listed as a bad tipper on bitterwaitress.com. "Normally he travels with an entourage, and there is a 'designated payer' . . . sometimes the hassle of 'fans' forces him to leave, and the group leaves en masse . . . a couple of times when they departed, I ended up paying the bill, and I can't tell you how apologetique he was afterwards."

(OUT.COM)He Says He’s Not Gay But…In the new Details, Fabian Basabe, the bratty kid featured on E!’s Filthy Rich: Cattle Drive, says he’s “flattered” by all the gay rumors about him. Basabe, who recently married La Perla lingerie heiress Martina Borgomanero, also says he was annoyed that Page Six recently questioned his father’s wealth. To prove just how rich he is, Basabe tells the magazine how his late dog Zachary always flew in a full-fare, first-class seat when he traveled with Basabe to such locations as Europe, Mexico, and the Caribbean. Um, we’re sorry, but unless you’re Paris Hilton, flying your dog first-class is kinda gay.

That guy is all pretense, and boy did my gaydar go off while watching that show. He's nothing but an angry, pretentious queen, and anyone who has to defend his so-called weath probably has good reason to, i.e. methinks he doth protest too much.Watching him on that show was like watching a train wreck.

LOTTERY WINNERS' POWER TRIP

ONE of the two Oregon couples who won the $345 million Powerball Lottery last month are determined to save every cent they get — and even pitted the morning shows against each other in a bid to see whether "Today" or "Good Morning America" would shell out the most freebies.

 

Steven West and his wife, Carolyn, along with his in-laws Frances and Bob Chaney, immediately hired a publicist who sent the morning shows' bookers a list of demands that rivals any rock star's contract.

 

Doug Orr, the national director of marketing for the Multi-State Lottery Association, e-mailed "Today" execs: "I spoke with Curtis Bennett [the Wests' publicist] this morning again . . . I was able to convince Curtis that one of the smaller private jets really would not be nearly as comfortable as first class in the commercial airlines . . .

 

"It appears the Wests would like the following in order to give you their first live interview: [first class-tickets for] the Wests, three of their children, and Curt Bennett and his wife."

 

They also wanted: "Four rooms per evening for the entire stay at the Waldorf . . . Meal allowance for the entire [four-day] trip for the group . . . [perhaps] an NBC representative taking the Wests' group out to a nice restaurant as a possibility? The Wests really, really want to go to a 'Saturday Night Live' performance . . . The Wests would like theater tickets for a Broadway production. 'The Lion King' was mentioned . . . A guided tour of NYC . . . A limo to take them around during their entire stay."

 

A source from within "Today" said, "When [executive producer] Jim Bell heard about the demands he said, '[bleep] them!' " Bell declined comment.

 

The Wests and their extended family did show up on "Good Morning America" yesterday morning.

 

ABC News spokesman Jeffrey Schneider said, "The facts are: we [flew] the Wests and their kids commercial to NYC. We are putting them up at the Millennium Hotel in Times Square . . . We told the family we don't buy Broadway tickets for our guests or provide car service around New York except when we are moving them from one ABC location to another.

 

"Nevertheless, we are working all our contacts at NBC in an effort to get them 'Saturday Night Live' tickets, but so far NBC isn't returning our calls. Go figure."

[Freckles 79]

Well, good for them. If the shows want to use them, the shows can pay for their services. Most people who win lotteries lose the money within a few years because they don't know how to handle it and go a little crazy. I'd much rather see lottery winners be too stingy than lose all that cash in a decade!

(Pagesix.com)NIXED AT NOBU BRANDON Davis has more clout in his L.A. hometown than he does here, where his grandfather started out in the Garment District. The billion-heir, in town last week for the Victoria's Secret show, made an unscheduled appearance at Nobu with his posse. The crew pulled up in a "tacky," black stretch limo and demanded a table, but the notoriously picky maitre d' turned them down. Davis then made out with a model-type for 10 minutes in the front of the restaurant before leaving. A witness says, "It was nasty — he was eating her face. Not what you want to see while eating sushi." Who was allowed in? Nicole Richie with her father, Lionel, and Jay-Z.

(Pagesix.com)GUEST FROM HELL EX-Creed frontman Scott Stapp created a ruckus on the set of Spike TV's "Casino Cinema" this week. Stapp, who's promoting his new solo album, "The Great Divide," showed up "drunk," according to witnesses, and "was totally wild on set — cursing and giving the finger and dissing Bono and Dave Grohl." The uproar was caught on camera and airs next Tuesday, including Stapp calling fellow guest Beth Ostrosky, Howard Stern's lissome girlfriend, a "bimbo." "Beth and Steve Schirripa were the total professionals, though, and made the best of the situation to get the filming done," the insider added.

(NYDailynews.com)Rock band says it’s got the 311 on Stapp spatChristian rocker Scott Stapp, former front man of Creed, is apparently on a mission from Beelzebub.Yesterday, Lowdown reported Stapp's bad behavior while taping a Spike TV show with hosts Beth Ostrosky and Steve Schirripa. Now the rock band 311 is alleging that the 32-year-old Stapp attacked drummer Chad Sexton, singer "SA" Martinez and bassist P-Nut as they watched a basketball game on TV in the Harbor Court Hotel in Baltimore on Thanksgiving Day."We did not intend to discuss this incident publicly, but since rumors are beginning to spread we'd like to set the record straight," the band wrote on their Web site message board. "Scott Stapp entered the bar. He appeared intoxicated. He drank a shot at the bar and then threw his shot glass, smashing it on the bar. He was acting belligerent and got into an argument with patrons sitting at the bar. …"He then sat down next to SA and his wife. He made a disrespectful and crude remark to SA's wife. Chad and SA asked him to step away. He then sucker-punched Chad. Scott was looking for a fight - and that's what he got. A fight ensued. Soon the police arrived and everyone was restrained and questioned; and Scott was ultimately asked to leave the hotel."Once again, Stapp's publicist didn't respond to detailed messages yesterday.

Anna Wintour (Vogue Editrix)

 

http://www.gawker.com/news/contest/today-i...ares-143035.php

 

A very reliable, double-super- secret, you’ll-never-ever- figure-out-who-it-is Spring Street source checked in this morning from Balthazar, where he’d learned these interesting bits of news:

 

• It seems Anna Wintour is coming downtown for lunch.

 

• She demands a private dining experience.

 

• Balthazar does not have private rooms.

 

• And so a hedge has been built around a table in the left rear corner, to give Ms. W. her desired privacy.

 

This development is delightful. It also, it seems to us, cries out for a Gawker contest. So here it is: We want a picture of Anna eating at the Balth. The ideal image is of her at her table, preferably in the process of inserting food into her mouth. The closest you can get to that shot — at the table is better than walking to it; walking to it is better than outside on the street — the likelier you are to win.

 

We were tempted to say that the first, best pic gets a Balthazar lunch on us. But then we remembered we can’t afford that. So let’s do this: The first, best pic gets a warm goat cheese and carmalized onion tart on us. They’re quite delicious.

 

See, this is why God invented cameraphones.

December 14, 2005 -- JESSICA Alba ruffled some hipster feathers at the hot MisShapes party Saturday night at Don Hill's. The gorgeous actress turned up with an entourage and was quickly ushered inside — but when head promoter Gordon Nicol asked if she would pose for a photo, Alba turned him down flat. When Nicol pointed out that celebs like Madonna, Hilary Duff and Selma Blair had all posed, Alba supposedly snapped, "I don't care!" and walked away. At that point, one of Alba's entourage told Nicol, "She's a bitch — sorry." Other notables at the bash included Rumer Willis, photographer Ryan McGinley and fashion designers Zaldy and Benjamin Cho.

Again, not really sure I'd classify this as Diva like the writer did. I HATE waiting in line at restaurants.

Had to kill some time before seeing Brokeback Mountain - headed for the 2:45pm show, but the earliest was 5:00pm. So - headed to the West Village for some lunch at the impossibly chic but relaxed Sant Ambroeus. As usual, it was packed and the maitre d’ said it would be 15 minutes for a table, so my friend and I hung out at the bar waiting. Two seconds later, the door opens and a very young woman, pretty with dark hair and good skin, comes in with an older, shorter man with a goatee and saggy circles under his eyes. “Her father” I thought. The maitre d’ looks at them, then says “Hello Mr. Joel”. Sure enough, it’s the piano man - but its creepy, too, cuz of the age difference between him and the (very)little missus. Billy is told its a 15 minute wait - he responsed “…but we don’t want to wait”. The maitre d’ says, sorry, I’ve got other people before you. Billy asks who, so the maitre d’ turns to his left and indicates me. We’re all crunched together cuz the space is tight. Billy looks directly at me with no reaction - I smile at him - he turns to the maitre d’ and says “…we’ll go somewhere else” and they leave. The guy is a pig - all around - but I give high marks to the maitre d’— especially at a place like Sant Ambroeus, where you expected to be treated like crap. We weren’t.

ABDUL 'IDOLS' 2

 

TWO overworked Las Vegas hotel workers claim an ornery Paula Abdul got them fired after they couldn't comply with her demands. As reported by Las Vegas Review-Journal columnist Norm Clarke, Carol Good and Damon Rosa were working the overnight shift at the Silverton Hotel & Casino when Abdul called down at 6 a.m. and asked them to change her 7:40 a.m. flight. Good, whose shift was over by then, stayed to help Rosa print out flight sched ules when, she says, Abdul "called up and went off on me." Abdul, after learning the later flights were fully booked, blamed the hotel staffers for missing the 7:40 a.m. flight. Both employees were fired. Abdul's people didn't return calls.

I'm watching last year's (Carrie Underwood) American Idol (on Reality T.V.) & its CLEAR that Paula Abdul is a massive bit*h now, so I'm not surprised.

Even in Santa Fe, Jessica Simpson can make her Hollywood presence felt.

 

Before shopping at Wild Oats organic food market, the actress (who's been in New Mexico filming her role as a Wal-Mart cashier in Employee of the Month) called ahead to let management know she was coming. Store employees were asked not to approach her and were told to make sure she wasn't bothered while making her selections. And while she was there, her entourage surrounded her so that she could stroll through the store without being approached.

[alpierce 9]

If I were them I would have had the whole town ignore her on purpose. Bodyguards are one thing but entourage's just bug.

If she hadn't called ahead, would people have left her alone anyway? It sounds like someone's self opinion is a bit high.

This is hilarious. I'm from Santa Fe originally, and the town is so laid back when it comes to celebs. Most locals could give a flying fig about the celebs that come to town. That's the reason why there are so many celebrities that have houses in the area. Having said that, if you act like a diva in Santa Fe, the locals are more likely to say "you can take your celebrity and shove it." There was an incident a couple years back with Val Kilmer bad mouthing the small-townness of the area, and he was ripped in the local press.

I bet she has someone let the paparazzi know where she's at as well. I heard that its usually someone in the celebrities camp who tips off the photographers, then they act upset at being followed.

I bet she has her own photographer picture her when she does a good deed, a la Penn.
