I actually read a good explanation for ridiculous celebrity requests in their concert/appearance contracts. The idea is to make sure that the promoters have read the whole thing and taken care of all the requirements, silly and necessary both. If they haven't bothered to supply Van Halen's bowl of M&Ms with all the brown ones removed, who's to say that there will be enough electrical sockets and a strong enough stage to hold everything? Snopes.com verifies this.
