She's renowned as one of the biggest divas in showbiz, but it seems Mariah Carey's pet pooches are just as high maintenance as she is.

Yes, the singer has revealed in an interview that her dogs have their own entourage for when she is on tour.

She admitted to Hello magazine that she had hired extra minders and security for a recent commercial that she starred in with her pets.

She said: "I had my team with me but the pups had a mini-entourage of their own, of course! And why wouldn't they?

"It was a big shoot and even my entourage had an entourage - my stylist had an assistant, my security had extra security.

"The shoot was based on the fact that some people think I'm a demanding diva. I have no idea why people have that impression!"

Mariah's most famous (possibly made-up) demand is that puppies and kittens be supplied to keep her entertained while on tour.

She's undoubtedly one of celebland's biggest divas, but she's got some stiff competition...
