After Kim Kardashian was robbed in 2018, the world was flooded with stories about it. Her ex-bodyguard, Pascal Duvier, and his business, Protect Security, were later sued by her and settled out of court for a total of $6.1 million in a case in 2020. Following the terrifying occurrence, Kardashian totally revamped her security arrangements. The mother and businesswoman (as well as a soon-to-be attorney!) increased security. In exchange for round-the-clock protection for her and her four children, she now pays $7 million a year. Keeping Up With the Kardashians followers are well aware that the famous family must be extremely watchful in order to avoid abusive admirers who take their admiration for the reality star to an extreme level.

Tom Cruise

Annual Protection Cost: $50,000 per week*

Despite the fact that Tom Cruise performs all of his own stunts, he still requires the services of a bodyguard to keep an eye on him. Billy Billingham, a former bodyguard for Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, is the man in charge of protecting the famous actor. Cruise has also previously collaborated with Sean Ringgold, albeit the two fell out over personal differences and parted ways after that project. As you can guess, many people are eager to pay a lot of money for a tell-all once a bodyguard for Tom Cruise decides to leave his position. He had nothing negative to say about the actor, save from an interesting tale in which he thought he was protecting the actor from an assailant—until it turned out that the “attacker,” as it turned out, was none other than Penelope Cruz herself.
