Don't mean to shine the light off Britney and her two-bit hubby, but you might find this fun. I worked for the Four Seasons Hotel several years ago. Let me share with you how grown-up and secure some of these celebrities are:
Don Johnson:
Made a pass at me twice when I picked him up in the service elevator. The hotel masseuse refused to give him a massage because he came on to her. Another time he was up against the elevator wall with his publicist going at it as if I wasn't even there. He was constantly drunk in the hotel. At 3am one night I went past his suite and his door was ajar. I went closer to investigate and he had a woman in his suite. It wasn't Melony. She had just left him at the end of that weekend. His children were sleeping in the suite next door. I called out to identify myself and he came to the door, drunk out of his mind, slurring and practically drooling. Real winner.
Scotty Pippin:
He had a different girl in his suite every hour one night for six or seven hours straight. He made a sexual connotation to the lobby bar hostess and was given a warning. Another winner.
Bobby Brown:
The winner of all winners. He and his cronies got warning after warning about the "no party policy" at the hotel. They don't care who you are or how famous, because it is the wealthy business people who bring the majority of revenue. They systematically damaged several thousand dollars worth of furniture in the suite. When I went to his suite to give him his final warning of which would follow their eviction, Bobby asked me what my name was. I told him and he turned to his entourage, they all looked as if they had been clothed by Gangs'R'Us, and said my name twice and said "That would taste good on the tip of my tongue", as he obscenely wagged it in my face. That same night he had two high class call girls visit him. Whitney had just left two days before.
The Princess of Thailand (A celebrity in her own right)
Whenever anyone entered her suite, they had to immediately get on their knees and move about on their knees because she was a princess and no one was allowed to be taller than her in the room. It was the one day I challenged my boss and said he best send someone else, because before I would get on my knees, I would throw her out a window.
Dolly Parton:
Instructed another person I worked with to walk her dog.
Madonna:
Made one of the housekeepers cry because there were no fresh flowers in EVERY room of her suite, of which she had specifically ordered.
Michael J. Fox:
Kept asking his bodyguard in the elevator if his hair was ok. He looked down the whole time and seemed very scared to make eye contact with anyone.
Prince:
One of the biggest laughs of my life. I never realized until I picked him up in the service elevator before his concert that he is only 3'2" in high heels. He had his very badly dyed black hair wound up in a boufant, and was wearing a pink jump suit with sequins. He walked with a cane and would wave it out in front of him like he was emotionally disturbed. His bodyguard was 8'5". Can you imagine the contrast? He fled to the corner of the elevator and turned his back to myself and my partner. It was all we could do to keep it together. Basement level underground parking..bodyguard goes first out the heavy double doors..forgets to hold them for Prince, and they slam back onto his 3' frame knocking him on his ass. I kid you not. I told my boss the next day that I didn't think I could pick up Prince anymore. Well..not without busting a gut.
There are so many more stories like that. I have to say though that Bono, Mike Myers, Robert Redford, and Brad Pitt were just downright cool to be around. They were extremely polite, appreciative, and didn't treat you like commoner trash. I was extremely happy when Bono kept losing the keys to his suite.
