You’ll only see this in hotel-room hallways during junkets, but whenever a big star needs to make his/her way from one room to another, he/she will always be flanked on all sides by his/her publicists in military formation. One publicist in front of the celebrity, one behind and two on either side — a phalanx of five. The idea, I guess, is that if some nutjob journalist or hotel employee makes a wrong move, the publicists will be able to block.
