Justin Bieber's Former Bodyguard Talks Pop Star Protection

UPDATE: Watch the full piece above now.

The life of a pop star is more dangerous than most realize: Take it from Kenny Hamilton, Justin Bieber's former bodyguard. While everyone knows that Beliebers are obsessive but harmless—remember when one attacked Justin...with a hug?—Hamilton says the dangers are real, especially while traveling abroad.

"Being in the Latin American countries, you got to deal with kidnappings," he tells Fuse News host Matte Babel. "Those were things that we dealt with. We always took precautions from the cartels and everything else...I would hire guys and make sure they had weapons."
