    Hi All,
    ...Greets from my Telegram app!


    One of the singers of the Good Lovelies dropped by my shop with her family of kids just now. Celebs always seem to look different in their relaxed offstage identity.

    I?ve had the (mis)fortune to be security for quite a few celebs. Their quirks are what make them interesting. One rich American I?ve had as a client three times now just walks. Every door must be open when he gets there, including elevators etc. If it isn?t he walks into it and the person who was supposed to open it gets fired.

    Are you subject to NDA? Can you name a few of them and more of the quirks? Sounds interesting.

    LOL. If I talk about clients I?ll very quickly have no work.
    This particular one though is a motivational speaker. His one event in Moscow, he charged $5000 per person and filled a 25000 seat auditorium. One event. 6 hours. $125 million. He can certainly afford to hire people to open doors for him.

    Discretion is to be appreciated and understood. But a publicly noticeable thing that anyone can witness like opening doors is probably common for many celebs.

    On one job, I had to fly from Ottawa to New York at Harris Corp for at least 3-day stay, but a few hours later my boss called to tell me he needed me back on the next flight. The incident pissed me off a bit, but Harris Corp had a limousine at the ready and the chauffeur fellow opened all the doors (building doors too) for me.

    Never heard of them. Are they World famous all over the world? Or just in Canada? ;)


    Bye, Wilfred.

    Hello Wilfred!

    One of the singers of the Good Lovelies dropped by my
    shop [...]

    Never heard of them. Are they World famous all over the
    world? Or just in Canada? ;)

    They have travelled all over the world including UK, Germany,
    Australia ..on tour.

    "a devoted fanbase blanketing the globe"

    Fine information on their website and wikipedia.
