Due to the busy nature of their schedules, celebrities usually rely on the assistance of personal assistants to aid them with everyday responsibilities such as cooking, cleaning, and scheduling appointments.
However, some celebrities have taken the practice one step further by delegating far odder tasks to the members of their entourage who work for them. A few of their employees have obligations that were not anticipated, and their tasks extend beyond those of a conventional PA.
