Celebrity bodyguard, Steve Sanulis, has revealed some of the rules he was given by rapper Kanye West whom he once served.

Steve who worked as a stripper and a policeman before becoming a bodyguard stated that some of the rules given by the rapper didn't make sense to him.

He disclosed this while speaking with Dax Holt and Adam Glyn on Hollywood Raw podcast.

‘He wanted you to stay 10 paces behind him on a city street. So obviously if someone is going to come up and do something, by the time I try to run up and prevent it, it would have already happened.’

Steve revealed that he got on the wrong footing on the first day on the job with Kanye West.

He explained: ‘The first day I met him…it was fashion week. I was supposed to meet him at the studio.

‘When he gets there, we get into the elevator and he says “Aren’t you going to push what floor we are going to?” ‘I was like “I have no idea what floor, it’s my first day. So he starts ranting, So you mean you didn’t call ahead to find out where I’m supposed to be going?. I said “no”. So he’s ranting and raving.

So I said “Look, bro, we can do this one of three ways. One, you could tell me what button to press, and now I’ll know. Two, you could press the button, and I’ll see which one you press so I’ll know. Or three, you can sit in here all day and tell me how important your time is and we are not going to go anywhere.”

‘Again, that was our first interaction. He went for the first option.’

He also revealed suspicion that Kanye West and Kim Kardashian do call paparazzi on themselves.

‘First of all, there’s no way [paparazzi] doesn’t get called upfront. There’s no way every time they are leaving, all these people know about it. ‘There’s definitely somebody calling ahead. That’s just my opinion… I’m just saying it coincidental that wherever we are, they’re always there. Maybe they’re just better than I think they are'.
