Tom Cruise
It’s hardly a surprise that someone as popular, well-loved, and crazy as Tom Cruise needs to have a team of bodyguards wherever he goes. One time, while still dating Katie Holmes, Tom hired Sean Ringgold to keep him safe. Little did Sean know that his time as a bodyguard would help him become a Hollywood actor.
In fact, another one of Tom’s bodyguards—Billy Billingham—also benefitted from keeping the Mission Impossible actor safe. Billy would go on to star in the military-based reality TV show SAS: Who Dares Wins. Billy has had lots of experience doing bodyguarding work for Kate Moss, Hulk Hogan, Russell Crowe, and Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt.
