For most people the Fourth of July is a celebration of America’s Independence but for some stars, it’s a day to be a diva -- or "divo" for that matter. Insiders were less-than-impressed with "Entourage" star Kevin Connolly’s entitled performance while partying at the Belvedere/SoBe Lifewater bash in Santa Monica on Saturday who, despite being given a suite for the day and a private VIP cabana, refused to be photographed with any fans or sponsors fullstop and ordered the waitstaff around.
"All the other celebrities were happy to wait in line for food and drinks but Kevin insisted on multiple servers bringing him everything he wanted as soon as he wanted it," said our snitch, adding that he later threw a "hissy fit" as he friends had to temporarily wait outside as the fire marshal closed the party after it reached capacity.
Connolly hung out all day with the newly brunette Britney Spears’s agent/rumored beau Jason Trawick, who sported new blonde locks at the poolside bash. We’re told his pop princess applied the highlights without his prior knowledge and before he knew it the Hollywood powerhouse was on the lighter side of living.
On the note of divas, we’re told by an inside source that Diddy’s personal peeps who were organizing his annual White Party were actually the ones being hard to handle and had so many unrealistic demands that the venue had to be changed at the last minute. On the other hand, the rumored high-maintenance party boy (who brought his beloved mama Janice as his date) took it upon himself to continually ensure that all press on the red-carpet were being taken care of and were supplied with an abundance of beverages and shrimp cocktails.
And even though Ashton Kutcher was helping host the party which raised funds and awareness for his charity of choice Malaria No More, the actor stayed holed up for most the time in his VIP cabana and even declined requests to pose for pics with some sponsors that were there supporting the cause.
Meanwhile across the country in New Orleans, Solange "Don’t Call Me Beyonce’s Sister" Knowles stopped singing midway thru her performance at the Essence Music Festival at Ford Motor Company’s Lincoln Super Lounge and demanded (in front of the entire audience) that a press photographer stop snapping her.
"Mr. Photographer, you are making me self conscious," Knowles barked. "I swear I make the same stupid three faces over and over again, so please leave me be."
