Celebs with Strange Bathroom Habits

Celebrity behavior is at times a little bit outlandish. The following is a look into the bathrooms of some major celebrities.

Flower girl: During a concert tour in 2007 super star singer Barbra Streisand made two bizarre bathroom requests at the Hotels she was she staying. The first request was that the toilet should have floating rose metals and the second demand including having rose colored toilet paper. Obviously her stuff doesn't stink

Hot Buns: Mega Star and wife of Jay-z, Beyonce makes a few bathroom demands for her backstage restroom. The toilet has to be disinfected which, is somewhat normal but on top that request the toilet water most be 78 degrees. Maybe this is her secret to keep her bottom tight.

Golden Girl: Famous R and B performer Mariah Carey requests upon her arrival that the faucets should be replaced with solid gold faucets and that the toilet seat be replaced with a brand new one. I am happy with running with running water

Not a seat in the house. Madonna The Legendary performer has been packing the seats for years. However the material girl finds it necessary to have a brand new toilet seat for each day she stays at a hotel. I wonder how much a used Madonna toilet seat would go for Ebay.

House without a toilet. Cliff Richard will not be appearing in Celebrity Big Brother. No, it is not because of a bad contract. The star made it clear to that he had to have his own bathroom away from the set. The producers of the show felt that this request was ludicrous and did not fulfill Cliff's request.

Kelly does not need a toilet. According to an interview with American Idol icon, Kelly Clarkson admits to urinating in the shower. I am guessing Madonna would have the Bathtub removed if she were to stay in a former Clarkson suite.

Not much action. Jackie Chan best know for various action packed roles only flushes the toilet once at the end of the day. I can't knock the green hustle. We waste a lot of fresh water with every flush of the toilet.

Gets things moving: Pole dancing aficionado Kate Hudson had a stripper pole installed in her bathroom. Now, that is multitasking.

Business or pleasure. George Michael has been found twice performing illegal acts in the restroom. In 1998 George was caught doing indecent acts. He was also caught in the late 90s with illegal drugs.

Stand with Confidence. Former senator Larry Craig was busted in an airport bathroom for having a wide stance. A wide stance is not a crime but supposedly it invites bathroom dwellers to participate in sexual behavior. If only George Michael was there to save the day.

Feeling a little flush. During an interview on Jay Leno A-list actress Cameron Diaz admits to living by the slogan, "if it is yellow leave mellow, if it brown flush down." Once again green is good but I would not want to be in the next in line after an asparagus dinner.

Toilets are a great way to go green. A dual flush toilet saves a considerable amount of water. Basically the best toilets for green projects are water saving.
