Annabel's Bouncer Doorman Elizabeth Hurley Security

ELIZABETH HURLEY AND THE ANNABEL’S DOORMEN

This photo of Elizabeth Hurley (red dress) leaving Annabel’s legendary club in London caught our eye, not because of the lamp in her hand (a gift from the club manager perhaps?) but the DOORMEN leading her out. We have never seen security guards, bouncers, doormen – whatever you want to call them – dressed in anything but tight, black clothing to show off their muscles. These delightful flowery print suits are a revelation. No matter how fierce their faces are, the clothing is amusing. Leave it to the Brits to find humor in doorman apparel. Remember, some famous guys have been bouncers in NY – Dolph Lundgren at Limelight, and Vin Diesel at The Tunnel.

Floyd Mayweather Money Security

FLOYD MAYWEATHER CAN’T SPEND HIS MONEY FAST ENOUGH

The flashy boxing champ was seen arriving at The Staples Center for a Lakers game with one of his fleet of jumbo bodyguards. His biggest guard is 7’1” and over 400 pounds – not sure if this is that one. Floyd is 5’8” and 150 pounds. Floyd needs his security guards because he often carries around a million dollars IN CASH. After all, he’s the highest paid athlete in the world and worth 340 million. He loves to shop and buys so many shoes he often wears them only once and leaves them for hotel staffers. When he flies in his private jet, his security guys fly in a separate private jet so they won’t take up too much space.

Kanye West Paranoia Security

DOES KANYE WEST THINK SOMEONE’S OUT TO GET HIM?

We used to see a lot of him, but lately a Kanye West sighting is a rare thing. The National Enquirer insists that Kanye has taken to wearing a bullet proof vest when he leaves home because he feels like a target. He HAS increased security since Kim was robbed but he is staying out of the limelight. This weekend he launched his new Adidas Yeezy collection which attracted quite a crowd of shoppers – but no Kanye. One thing for sure – Kim is NOT wearing a bullet proof vest….

Sasha Obama Security

ALL EYES ARE FOCUSED ON SASHA OBAMA

Imagine being 15 and vacationing on the beach in Miami with friends – AND being surrounded by secret service! Some of the security people are in suits with earpieces, others are wearing sportier attire – but all eyes are upon Sasha Obama! We wonder if it makes her feel embarrassed or important – but her parents don’t have to worry about her. Sasha was conspicuously absent from her father’s farewell speech last week because she had a science exam the next morning. Her mother Michelle and sister Malia were reduced to tears by the President’s touching last public address. We wonder how long Sasha will have to endure her present lack of privacy….

Ego Entitlement Kanye West Manners Security

TIME FOR SOMEONE TO CALL OUT KANYE WEST FOR WHAT HE IS

Seems like every day we hear more reasons NOT to like Kanye West. We think Anna Wintour should have ejected him from the Met Ball for wearing torn jeans to the strictly black tie event. In NOT doing so, she reinforced his belief that he is SPECIAL and rules don’t apply to him. We have long heard that he tells his wife Kim what to do and she obeys. Now his former bodyguard has dropped a few nuggets of information about his ex-boss. The guard was fired after speaking directly to Kim. The guard told The Sun that Kanye is incredibly condescending and totally self-absorbed. He doesn’t speak to or acknowledge his security staff. When they watch him at dinner in a restaurant, he NEVER offers them so much as a glass of water. Other celebs often have guards eat at the next table. People around Kanye indulge him and walk around on eggshells, hoping not to set him off. His handlers apologize for him. The security guy cannot imagine why Kim stays married to him. It seems that manners and respect are not a part of Kanye’s life.

Airport Britney Spears Security

BRITNEY SPEARS AT LAX: THE INDIGNITY OF IT ALL!

Britney Spears is one of the most famous pop stars around, but at the airport she doesn’t get any special treatment when it comes to security. She and her two sons Sean and Jayden had to go through two screening devices and something about Britney kept setting off alarms. She had to take off her hat, her glasses, and her shoes and became increasingly annoyed as she attracted more and more attention. But she kept her cool.

Car Culture Ego Kanye West Kim Kardashian Security

OUT OF THE WAY! HERE COMES KANYE WEST IN HIS ARMORED CAR!

Kanye West’s colossal ego continues to amaze us. According to The Hollywood Reporter, West has ordered TWO armored vehicles for 1.2 million dollars each, with all the frills. (His and Hers?) We always thought that only popes, dictators, drug lords, and terrorists bought this type of SUV, so Kanye must think he’s awfully important. Frankly we have never heard of a celebrity shot in his car simply for being famous so why does Kanye feel the need for this protection? Maybe he has a beef with some gangster rapper, who knows…

Crimes and Misdemeanors Grave Jewelry Security Whitney Houston

WHITNEY HOUSTON ENCASED IN CEMENT?

#whitneyhouston

We’ve all heard the story that Whitney Houston was buried wearing $800,000 worth of jewelry and certainly we wondered WHY her family would do such a thing – AND let the information leak out. Nightmarish visions of grave robbers couldn’t help but dance in our heads. According to recent rumors, the family has decided it’s not practical to have 24 hr guards protecting Whitney’s grave, so they plan to encase her casket in cement to discourage vandals. All this sounds like a good case for cremation, to us.

Grave Jewelry Security Whitney Houston

WHITNEY HOUSTON STILL NEEDS BODYGUARDS

We were just waiting for THIS to happen. When The Enquirer revealed that Whitney Houston was buried with $500,00 worth of jewelry, you could just imagine the grave robbers making plans. Whose brilliant idea was THAT? Her burial site in Westfield, New Jersey, has been closed to the general public for the past week after hordes of fans overran the cemetery. 24 hour armed security guards have been hired by the family to keep her grave from being robbed. What a waste of money.
