How Much Do Celebrity Bodyguards Make?

Being a celebrity often comes with incredible perks, but the downsides can be frightening. The intensity of the spotlight makes stars targets for various crimes. They must remain vigilant and protect themselves, especially in the social media age, when users are encouraged to share details about their lives. That’s why many stars turn to bodyguards, also known as close protection agents or executive protection. A recent rise in crimes against the rich and famous has led more public figures to hire security teams. The profession entails tense situations and long workdays, but celebrity bodyguards’ salaries can be impressive.

Celebrity bodyguards have been commonplace in showbiz since Frank Sinatra began employing them in the 1950s. Actors, artists, and politicians regularly have protection agents in their entourage during press tours or when they’re out on the town. However, celebrities have hired more at-home bodyguards in recent months.
