Music star left mortified after students publish his tour rider

by

Don't you just hate when a group of university students decide to publish your diva-like wants and demands?

Well, if you're Jack White you do.

When The White Stripes singer charged the University of Oklahoma $80,000 to perform for students, he also included a few fairly specific needs and desires.

And the students wasted no time publishing these stipulations in the student newspaper The Oklahoma Daily.

As well as demanding "freshly sliced, high-quality prosciutto and aged salami with a sharp knife", Jack insists that the presence of a banana could ruin the whole damn gig, saying: "This is a banana-free tour."

Following the publication of the rider, Jack's people did some major damage control and insisted that The White Stripes star didn't actual write the list, saying: "Contrary to what some people believe, Jack doesn't write the rider nor make demands about his favourite snacks that must be in his dressing room."

Determine to get the singer off-the-hook, the statement continues: "We're not even sure he like quacamole but we do know that the folks who work hard to put on the show do enjoy it."

Good job, guys!
