Hillary Clinton is now asking for "hefty fees" and insists on a long list of "diva demands" for her speaking arrangements, it has been reported.

According to documents obtained by the Washington Post, when UCLA leaders asked her to speak, and requested a discounted price, they were stunned to find that her "special university rate" was 300,000 dollars, the New York Post reported.

Guy Wheatley, a UCLA development official, wrote in an email that the amount was 50k dollars more that her husband, Bill Clinton.

Former United States Secretary of State also demanded a backstage menu that included "diet ginger ale, crudites, hummus and sliced fruit;" with the onstage chairs to include "two long, rectangular pillows," and required two more cushions ready backstage.

 

According to an email from a UCLA administrator, the presumed 2016 presidential candidate also demanded that only two group photos were allowed, and they had to be pre-assembled "so the secretary of state isn't waiting for these folks to get their act together.

Hillary also made headlines for her extravagant traveling requirements, including private jet rentals.
