OK! Exclusive: Mariah Carey Plans To Steal Lionel Richie's Shine On Tour With OUTLANDISH Demands

Lionel Richie may have made the wrong call by opting to go on the road with Mariah Carey. The renowned singer is learning first hand about her tour tantrums and they haven’t even started their 35-show outing!

A source told OK! Magazine that she is expecting a dressing room double the size of his, champagne, and even exotic flowers backstage.

And this actually may be tame! In previous years, it’s been reported that she once demanded that her backstage area be furnished to her exact specifications, including couches, coffee tables, and equipment that allowed her to turn off harsh lighting.

On top of showing her diva antics behind-the-scenes, Mariah is also getting bold onstage, and “she’s even demanding that the volume on Lionel’s mic be lowered during their duets,” said an insider.

Lionel is allegedly not too thrilled by Mariah’s outrageous demands, and rightfully so, but while he’s “steering this ship,” the source added “there have been some huge fights.”
