Elton John requests separate hotel room for his glasses ahead of Brazil concert

According to a spokesperson for the show’s production company, the 65year-old star needed an extra room at the Ouro Minas five-star hotel in Belo Horizonte for his range of accessories.

"Elton John asked for an extra room in the hotel for some of his collection of glasses because he needs a temperature of 16C to preserve the accessories,” the spokesperson told the Daily Telegraph.

The father-of-two is also said to have made several other requests, regarding the drinks that were to be made available in his room.

He allegedly requested four bottles of cranberry juice, a pint of fresh skimmed milk and two bottles of good quality Pinot Grigio wine, as well as eight small bottles of French Evian water, and five large bottles or 12 small bottles of San Pellegrino sparkling water.

But the singers demands didn’t end there, as the spokesperson went on to say: : "What stands out is the request for a phone line with international access and, surprisingly, a television with access to local channels and cable.

"In the latter, there is yet another requirement: that among the channels, he specifically has the sports channels." John will perform to a 60,000 crowd at the Mineirao stadium on Saturday, so no doubt he wants to feel right at home before going on stage.
