He’s famed for his eccentric variety of outlandish glasses and is no stranger to the odd diva episode.
So it should come as no surprise that Sir Elton John is reported to have requested an extra hotel room on his current mini-tour of Brazil – just for his colourful collection of specs.
The star is currently on a four show tour of the South American country celebrating 40 years of his Rocket Man album.
The singer is also said to have stipulated that the room must be kept at a constant temperature of 16C and that his suite must be adorned with flowers.
He is believed to have demanded four two-metre high vases containing palm trees in his dressing room and seven other square vases, five containing 16 red roses and two with 16 white roses.
But Aluizer Malab, responsible for Sir Elton’s March 9 show at the city’s Mineirao football stadium, said that nothing is too much trouble for tour organisers.
He said: ‘In general, he isn’t that eccentric. They are reasonable requests. He is a very disciplined artist.’
According to Rolling Stone magazine in Brazil, Sir Elton has said that he would like to eat traditional Brazilian food while in the country.
Tickets for the shows range from $50 to $1,000.
