Janet Street-Porter has admitted she makes diva-style demands at Loose Women.
The panelist likes to get special treatment behind the scenes on the ITV show which includes a specific list of items on her rider.
She said: "They call me a diva. I’ve got my own list of requirements in my dressing room. I like Redbush tea bags, I like heated rollers on, I don’t want to talk to anyone really. Unfortunately I do have to.!"

Janet also skips the pre-show production meeting that her co-stars have to attend. She said: "I don’t come in for the meeting. Since Covid I have done the morning meeting remotely. I sit at home watching them on my computer. I arrive last."
Janet also refuses to sit at the end of the panel when the show is airing because she doesn’t like the camera angle. She added: "None of us want to sit on the end."
Despite her grumpy persona, Janet has become a big hit with viewers since joining the show in 2011. The journalist is one of the stars taking part in the show’s tour Loose Women Live, which runs until next Wednesday.

It comes after a stranger hurled abuse at Janet while she went for a "quiet walk" by the ocean.
The TV personality took to social media to discuss the alarming incident, writing: "I went for a quiet walk by the sea in Kent this afternoon.
"A car suddenly drove up behind me, the man behind the wheel screamed I HATE YOU, WE ALL HATE YOU, YOU ARE STUPID and when I tried walk away he turned round and spat out YOU WILL GO DOWN. He's driving a grey Golf."
She added: "I am ok, but it was a bit of a shock. I don't know a single person who would get pleasure from driving up to a woman walking by herself on a quiet road by the sea and shouting abuse at her. But maybe I haven't lived!"
Janet began her career as a fashion writer and columnist at the Daily Mail and was later appointed fashion editor of the Evening Standard.
