Mojtaba Khamenei surrounded by his bodyguards

Celebrities are good candidates for personal protection services because they are often the subject of passionate fan devotion. Most fans might simply want to grab a quick photo or shake the celeb’s hand, but it is always possible that such encounters could take a dark turn. Having a bodyguard on hand discourages overzealous fans from taking things too far, and can also help provide extra security at events, concerts, meet and greets, and other situations where entertainers interact with the public.
