Just when we were starting to think that outrageous diva demands were becoming a thing of the past, Paris Hilton saves the day with a fantastic story involving live lobsters.

The party girl heiress-turned-actress is reported to have issued a three-page rider to the producers of The Other Guys, a film in which she was making a small cameo appearance.

The New York Post quoted a source as saying: ""Paris has a cameo role in the movie, where she plays herself. The producers were shocked when her team handed them a three-page list of demands - including live lobsters to be prepared fresh when she's ready to eat and a bottle of Grey Goose vodka - all for just one day on the set.

"All celebrities are typically offered riders, but it seemed excessive for just one day's work playing herself. She was due to fly to New York to film in secret last week."

But Paris's rep has denied the story, saying: "This is totally ridiculous and untrue."

The film is scheduled for release next year and features Will Ferrell, The Rock, Mark Wahlberg and Samuel L Jackson. And maybe some lobsters.

Whether Paris did ask for lobsters or not, such demands seem almost reasonable next to those made by some of the divas in our gallery...
