Justin Bieber — the name alone conjures a whirlwind of fame, drama, and jaw-dropping headlines. Over the past 15 years, this Canadian pop sensation has ridden the rollercoaster of stardom like few others. If Mercury’s in retrograde, no wonder the poor guy sometimes cracks under the spotlight—especially with fans even impersonating him just to snag a taste of his celebrity perks for a night. And let’s not forget his whirlwind marriage to Hailey Bieber, one of Hollywood’s most scrutinized romances. But here’s a cosmic question: what does a global superstar like Bieber actually require behind the scenes to keep the magic alive? Spoiler alert — it’s a heck of a lot more than you’d expect. From luxury convoys and private jets to special masseuses flown halfway across the world, Bieber’s rider is a star-studded wishlist that reads like a cosmic wishlist for the gods of glam. Ready for the juicy details on what it really takes to prepare for a show when you’re a multi-Grammy winner? Buckle up, because this backstage pass is as wild as a Venus-Pluto conjunction in your birth chart. LEARN MORE.
Justin Bieber is without a doubt one of the biggest stars in the world, with the Canadian popstar experiencing the highs and lows of fame for the last 15 years or so.
The ‘Baby’ star is so popular, in fact, that people even pretend to be him to experience the perks, even if it’s just for one night.
His marriage to Hailey Bieber is also one of the most publicised and covered in Hollywood, so you can understand when the 31-year-old has outbursts or displays some odd behaviour online to cope with the scrutiny.
So it should come as no surprise that Bieber’s apparent rider list piqued the interest of fans around the world, because what would a multi-Grammy-winning artist possibly want at his disposal when preparing for a performance?
A lot, it turns out.

Firstly, a rider list, also known as an artist rider, is a document which lists an artist’s hospitality and technical requirements for a performance at a venue or location.
If only us regular people could have a wish list like that fulfilled, eh?
Back in May 2017, the father-of-one made headlines after his alleged rider ahead of his show in Mumbai, India, as part of his Purpose tour, was leaked by a music journalist and subsequently reported by the BBC.
Unsurprisingly, there’s a lot on it for Bieber and his entourage of 120 people for their stay – so here are the highlights:

If you thought this was it, there’s a lot more – such as two five-star hotels being reserved for safety reasons, as well as top chefs who are responsible for making five dishes per day over four days, all of which will be named after his songs.
Bieber also requested that his dressing room backstage be draped with white curtains, while also flying in a special masseuse from the Indian city of Kerala.
To top it all off, there was also a private jet and a chopper on standby to meet the star’s needs while he was in the country, while he asked for specific drinks and food types to be available to him, along with specific types of clothing in his dressing room.
