In a recent interview for the February/March issue of Wonderland magazine, the 29-year-old singer revealed her demands while on tour — not just for herself, she said, but for the entourage that hangs out with her backstage.
The magazine obtained a full tour rider list for Minaj, which includes roses, a full tea set, fine silverware, a case of Red Bull, several different kinds of fruit, a full-fledged breakfast spread and deli sandwich tray — and that’s just for setting the table. Minaj also requests several items to help her voice, including a humidifier and throat lozenges.
Here’s a peek at the list after the jump:
-Two dozen pink or white roses and three large Baked Goods scented candles
