Grace Jones reportedly refused to perform at Latitude until she was given white napkins.

The 61-year-old allegedly kept the audience waiting for 20 minutes while festival organisers attempted to meet her demands.

According to the Daily Star, Jones "couldn't deal" with the blue napkins that were provided in her dressing room.

Arriving on the obelisk stage on a crane lift, she wore her trademark devils horn mask with red LED lights as she opened with 'Nightclubbing'.

The star's live show was cut short as a result of the delay, prompting her to tell the audience: "So there's a curfew?! Can you all scream to get me back on?"

Last year, Jones reportedly lost her temper with a man at the James Bond premiere afterparty.
