Thanks to your work, Narda Lepes‘ class=”com-link” data-reactroot=””>Narda Lepes witnessed the most unusual requests that music stars usually do on their international tours. During Wednesday night, sitting in the living room of Night al Dente, the cook mentioned, between laughter and memories, the demands of Jennifer Lopez‘ class=”com-link” data-reactroot=””> Jennifer LopezMadonna, Steven Tyler‘ class=”com-link” data-reactroot=””>Steven Tyler y Robbie Williams. In addition, he revealed who the celebrities were most loving towards the workers.
“You have cooked for many rockers, do you have a favorite?”, Dente started the song in his “Ten in a row” section, where guests must answer a series of “short and to the point” questions. “I can tell you that Robbie Williams and Ricky Martin were the most loving. Also Chayanne,” the cook returned. Intrigued by the behind-the-scenes of the shows, Dente wanted to know more. “What did you do to them?” she asked him. “You do what they ask for, in general. They send a rider -a list-, it’s not that we did what we wanted, we invited them to eat,” Lepes revealed.
In the spirit of going further, Dente asked if it is true that there are those extravagant lists that stars make and that then “leak into the news.” Attentive to the game, Narda confirmed some of the strangest orders she received and started with Jennifer Lopez. “She asked that everything in the dressing room is white.”‘ class=”com-link” data-reactroot=””>everything in the dressing room is white.” “The plates had to be white, the cutlery had to be white… where the hell do we get white cutlery?” he recalled asking themselves at the time.
Lepes’ list continued with another famous person with colorimetry demands in the dressing room. “Ozzy Osbourne: nada verde”, Shooting. In addition, he revealed a very particular request from the rocker in relation to the format of the meal: “He wanted, every day, a whole baked chicken. Whole with everything, with the neck, with everything. Cooked,” he recalled.
Very amused by the retro moment and attentive to reviewing every detail, the cook continued with a case that confused everyone in the catering, that of Steven Tyler, Aerosmith singer. “He asked for something that we didn’t understand what it was. He said ‘this is very important’, with many signs and many things. He asked for a refrigerator with some bags, the closing ones, with a quantity of ice without ends. The bags had to have a specific measurement. He wanted them right next to the stage, at the exit, to leave,” he reviewed.
Confused by the situation, Lepes said that she asked the musician’s entourage for more information. “She asked them to explain to me why they wanted her, so she could look for replacements. I didn’t have that bag size. ‘And they take the refrigerator? Do I have to charge you for it or are you going to leave it?’” After getting the answers and fulfilling the order, the cook finally understood the reason for such eccentricity. “Steven Tyler is a big lady and he dances a lot. When he gets off stage, he gets into the limo, takes off his boots and puts one foot in each Ziploc. Until we saw it, we didn’t leave,” she recalled with a laugh.
“Madonna asks for something?” Dente pointed out with great intrigue. “Madonna ate blueberries, tea and baby carrots. And stop counting. In the stadium I ate that,” he reviewed and after remembering that when he worked for her he did five or six shows in the country, he highlighted her great professionalism. “Every day I rehearsed the entire show. Not a little, the passage through the stage… complete! The two and a half hour show. From three to five thirty in the afternoon I did the entire show,” she revealed, and explained that she also reviewed the parts in which she interacted with the audience. “Everything the same, everything good, everything perfect.” And, as she passed by, she left an unusual comment about a strange checkpoint they had to go through: “There “They took the temperature of the water with which we washed the dishes”, he recalled. “No one could get sick. It was ‘this is not a rock show, this is a Broadway Show on Tour’. No one could get poisoned,” she explained, noting that the water had to be hot enough to kill the bacteria.
Finally, Narda recalled that they took the trouble to find out what country the team that came with the stars was from to also cook homemade food for them from their places of origin. “And put, They had Robbie Williams on a diet, they didn’t let him eat anything. And he looked out and I asked for ‘an empanadita'”, he revealed imitating the British singer. “He said ‘una empanadita’ with his accent, it was spectacular.”
