Hollywood's Spoiled Brats

by Marilyn Beck and Stacy Jenel Smith

 

Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin waited their turn -- for nearly 45 minutes -- to be seated at Santa Monica's petit Giorgio's restaurant. Madonna and Guy Ritchie dropped by a few nights later and also waited -- just like ordinary folks -- for a table at the very in, very popular laidback tiny Italian eatery. How rare, how refreshing, in a world where Filmland stars most often demand to be treated like royalty -- and usually get their way.

How about this for spoiled brat behavior? Jennifer Lopez decided to move from one London hotel to another some 100 yards away. Instead of walking the distance, she and her entourage of about 30 piled into six limousines for the journey! And that's not all. J. Lo insisted that a retail area in Sundance be cleared so that she and her Ben would not be eyeballed by outsiders while they shopped, shopped, shopped; she pulled the same thing at Barneys New York over the Christmas holidays.

 

 

 

Arnold Schwarzenegger has demanded -- and gotten -- the same treatment at shops. He's even taken the I-vant-to-be-alone philosophy to celebrity sports tourneys. At one such weekend in Canada, he insisted he would not ski on the slope where the competition was being held, but off by himself on an adjoining mountain.

 

Then there's Julia Roberts, who, while making a film in New York, demanded that TriStar studio keep a jet standing by 24 hours a day on the off chance that she had the whim to be whisked to L.A. Still, hardly anyone can match John Travolta, whose demands have included that studios pay for his whoppin' entourage -- some dozen assistants, trainers, makeup artists, standins, security guards, massage therapists, drivers, and his personal chef -- while he's making a movie. Hollywood is happy to allow its stars to act like spoiled brats, as long as their films make money. Travolta, who needs a hit badly, had better watch out.

Isn't that funny? People is always calling Madonna and Gwyneth Paltrow the most stuck up celebs and Julia Roberts is supposed to be 'America's Sweetheart'

Yeah... Julia Roberts isn't the sweetheart everyone thinks she is.

 

My friend's husband met Matt Damon and George Clooney (he's in the military and it was when the cast of Ocean's Eleven went to a military base to support the troops and promote the film.) And Matt Damon and George Clooney were ripping all over her, saying that she's incrediably stuck up and full of herself.

 

I found it quite hilarious. :lol:
