TV producers name the most difficult celebrities to interview
<p>Mornings can bring out the worst in people – even celebrities, apparently! After chatting to past and present breakfast TV producers, <a href="http://www.news.com.au/entertainment/tv/morning-shows/breakfast-tv-producers-name-and-shame-diva-celebrities/news-story/ffe33983c0b2abf5216bc77a37e81b24"><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">news.com.au</span></strong></a> has revealed some of the most difficult-to-handle celebrities, and you may be surprised by the results.</p>
<p><strong>1. Elle Macpherson</strong> reportedly had to approve all the camera angles, lighting and focus settings. The supermodel even knew all the right technical terms. “She was a very nice person, just super controlling.”</p>
<p><strong>2. Ricky Martin</strong> demanded his dressing room had the same lighting as the program’s set. He also had other very specific lighting requests. “His PR person […] discovered that Ricky would be exposed to fluorescent lights during his 50 metre walk from his dressing room to the studio and she told us that Ricky doesn’t do fluorescent lights.”</p>
<p><strong>3. Lady Gaga</strong> said she would only drink tea out of antique china. “My colleague went down to Vega and got a floral Royal Doulton teacup,” one producer said. “Gaga had no idea.”</p>
<p><strong>4. Michael Richards</strong> (who played Kramer on Seinfeld) was the total opposite of his famous character. “He sat, slumped in a dressing gown, looking like he didn’t want to be there. He wouldn’t chime in on any Seinfeld stories, he just wanted to talk about his tour.”</p>
<p><strong>5. The Kardashians</strong> were actually “super nice”, but their support team were quite the handful. “They said the Kardashians weren’t allowed to be addressed in a certain way and they were only allowed to have certain fruit on the platter. But Kim and Khloe couldn’t care less about any of that.”</p>
<p><strong>6. Jessica Alba</strong> was surprisingly difficult both on and off-screen. “She made us shut down the air-conditioning to the whole floor before she’d go in the studio. During the interview she made no eye contact and gave, at best, two syllable answers.”</p>
