According to a report on New York Post on March 29, 2013, singer Jennifer Lopez’s outrageous demands make her lose the chance to perform in front of 60 million viewers at the opening ceremony of India’s Premier League cricket tournament to be held next Tuesday.
Benny Medina, manager of Lopez, demanded a private plane for her, numerous hotel rooms for the singing queen and her enormous entourage that included her stylists, assistants and a personal chef.
The officials at IPL chose rapper Pitbull for the opening ceremony. Some of the Bollywood’s biggest stars will also perfrorm at the ceremony.
Sources said that it was not a right decision on her part as the event is huge and it is similar to the Super Bowl halftime show. Reportedly, there were around 56 million viewers of the IPL, last year.
Indian superstar Shahrukh Khan, Katrina Kaif and many other celebrities have been roped to perform at the opening ceremony of the event on April 3, 2013.
Lopez’s manager claims that they had received a proposal to perform, however, Lopez’s schedule is busy and thus the dates clashed with her current music-recording schedule for an album due this summer.
