BUSTA RHYMES Rhymes' contract shows that he knows how to unwind after a show. The rapper's rider requests a 24-piece bucket of KFC, six bottles of Moet champagne, and one full box of ribbed condoms.

CHRISTINA AGUILERA: What a girl wants, what a girl needs -- sometimes these things are contradictory. Aguilera's 2000 contract asks for both health food (organic fruits and veggies, soy milk and soy cheese, and Flintstones chewable vitamins) and sugary drinks (Nesquik, Coca-Cola -- ''NOT Pepsi, no diet'').

DESTINY'S CHILD The diva trio's demands are simple, but particular: fine china, two large strawberry candles, and black towels (an oddly common request among pop stars). Also, fresh ginger root is ''very important.''

DIXIE CHICKS Because their audience is largely female, the Chicks' 2000 contract demands that venues provide extra women's restrooms, converting some of the men's rooms if necessary. Also, the talented threesome require a 10 a.m. tee time at a local golf course in each town.

MOBY The artist behind ''Play'' and ''18'' does the work of 10 musicians by himself. Maybe that's why his 2000 contract calls for 10 pairs of white cotton crew socks and 10 cotton boxer shorts. Or maybe he's just a little obsessive.
