Black Eyed Peas’ huge backstage demands at Glastonbury

LONDON - American pop group Black Eyed Peas are said to have made a huge backstage demand for their appearance at Glastonbury.

The group has asked for a tour bus with tens of thousands of pounds worth of recording equipment laid on so they can remix and make new tracks.

And they have asked for it to be stocked with booze, including a selection of local West Country ciders, and tons of festival food.

They, Fergie, Will.I.Am, Apl and Taboo, will be flying into London on a private jet from France, and will arrive at the gig on June 28 by helicopter.

“The band are so excited about performing at Glastonbury. They love to be able to remix and make new tracks wherever they go so they have demanded they have a mini-studio on their bus to capture the moment,” the Mirror quoted a source as saying.

“They really want to get into the UK festival spirit and have asked for traditional cider and a gourmet selection of festival-style food such as fancy falafel, speciality burgers and Mr Whippy ice-cream.

“But Fergie still wants to keep up her healthy diet while on the road so there will also be huge fresh salads, skinless free-range chicken, sun-blush tomatoes and giant platters of vegetable cruditis,” the source said.

And as there have been reports of poor weather, it means that Fergie will need some spare footwear.

“She has been warned that by Sunday the ground could be exceptionally muddy,” a source said.

“So she will be getting some specially designed blinging wellies from Hunter and a golf buggy just in case her high-heels don’t make it through the muck to the stage,” the source added. (ANI)
