His bodyguard, Sam (pictured here), is always by his side. Sam’s work is quite tedious because he has to plan efficient ways to escort Radcliffe to the bathroom safely without fans being all over him. Many people consider him Radcliffe’s older brother.

Beyonce And Jay-Z

Some time ago, Blue Ivy Carter was transported to school by a security motorcade and armed bodyguards, and best believe this was a major issue for multiple parents.

50 Cent

After being shot nine times and surviving, we are sure no one can find it strange that Curtis James Jackson III, more popularly called 50 Cent, would have top-notch security around him. If you wouldn’t, then we sure would! 50 Cent was attacked in 2000 by an alleged bodyguard who used to work for Mike Tyson, and the attack took place in front of the rapper’s son and grandmother.

However, Roberts only managed to work with Houston from 1988 to 1995 when he was fired for shedding light on the star’s questionable wellbeing.
