Taking Kenny with him everywhere he goes is totally not weird at all and paying for him to come to 2 shows in Australia makes sound financial sense .

That jimmys needs a armed bodyguard/personal driver/thug aka kenny anytime he leaves his apartment is a fricking bizarre aspect of the show thats never been explored or explained. Ant has Keith, his own 24/7 armed baby sitter. But that I understand, Keith purpose is to keep Ant out of jail for fucking children and to smooth over drunken adventures that cross the local PD. But, Ant will leave his house without Keith glued to his hip. Yimmy on the other hand, seems to need his pet goon, when he goes into public spaces

I explained this before. Remember Jimmy being angry at Jeter not taking a photo with him & only talking to "chicks"? Jimmy was mostly angry cuz he's the same exact guy without the balls to do it himself. Jimmy hates other people & he hates the fans (unless it's a chick that might fuck him). So the investment in Kenny's salary is essentially what it's worth to him to keep the 10s of fans away from him & not bother him so he doesn't have to do it himself. I'm sure a big part of it is that he doesn't want to be a hypocrite & he's already made a big deal about how he hates when Celebs won't take pics with him. But yea, I think hiring a goon to keep the scum-of-the-Earth fans away from precious Jimmy is so much worse than being a guy like Jeter who is man enough to do what he wants & interact with who he wants to without giving a fuck

Nothing steams my broccoli more then hearing Yim bitch about how a celeb won't take a photo with him. Like do you not even fucking realize that you are just an annoying fanboy on the other side of the table to them? Do you really need photographed documentation that you have a "life with the stars"?
One day I'm gonna break into his apartment and burn all his celeb photos in front of him while taking a piss on the Ozzy one while doing bad Chip impressions.

How glorious it would be if his hard drive with all the photos shit the bed

I honestly don't understand the picture thing. Is a visitor meant to see his pictures and go
"oh wow, do you know Paul McCartney?"
"Uh, no. I saw him at work once" "Oh. Is that Sylvester Stallone? Are you guys friends?"
"Um, no. I saw him at work once"

Kenny is probably the most recognisable thing about Norton. I don't think I'd be able to spot him without a 7 foot goon shadowing his every move, maybe on a summers day check for any kiss shirts but otherwise he'd just be another oddly thin face in the crowd.
2 late_50s_why 2016-08-03
theres always story floating around about kenny man handling and shoving the fans around so they cant bother the comedy star
1 callmesnake13 2016-08-03
I ran into Jimmy once on the sidewalk and he was nice. I think Kenny is mostly there because:
Bigger celebrities have an entourage and having Kenny makes Jim feel like more of a big shot
He does roadie/merch stuff that Jim doesn't want to do
And most of all, Jim gets into some really sketchy shit with all the prostitutes.
13 MaskedUploader 2016-08-03
It's hilarious because all the alt comics at Bonnaroo gave him shit for it and he later tried to pass it off like Kenny was his tour manager that handled all the grunt work.
8 NevadaJPH 2016-08-03
Even that explanation from him is shit. He needs a tour manager for places less than 2,000 seats?
2 late_50s_why 2016-08-03
didnt big jay and rogan made fun of him for that too?

I'll bet Kenny can only carry a gun in New York. No other state will reciprocate with New York because they are douche bags.

Beyond how lame it is for Baby Boy to need a traveling secretary/bodyguard are the financial implications. Salary, travel costs, meals, etc. The Worm needs his Sirius salary to continue this weirdness.
12 TheFatMosque 2016-08-03
It really is crazy. I assume he spends at least 100k/yr on this top notch and totally necessary security service

13 TakesTheWrongSideGuy 2016-08-03
Remember how everyone else at SXM thought it was weird Opie, Anthony, and Jim needed Kenny around and how he would protect them while going to the bathroom. Meanwhile no one's going to bother them and you need credentials to be on the floor anyway. It's just do bizarre. Who do they think is going to bother them? Even at the height of the Stern fued there was no risk.
2 AppleBonfire 2016-08-03
It really is odd.
12 chrb13 2016-08-03
I would imagine the reason for baby boy having Kenny as his 24 hour babysitter is a mixture of being a defenseless 5'5" little nothing who most girls could probably physically best, and also wanting a buffer between him and his fans who he doesn't want to interact with in anyway.

Dice had Kenny. So Jim thinks that he can never be big time without a goon squad. Same with rappers/celebrities that must have an entourage.
2 WiretapStudios 2016-08-03
Most rappers actually do need a few people around in case something goes down though - even if they are douches and just run their mouth, it's handy to have a few giant Green Mile looking guys to form a wall. Kenny, meanwhile, is in charge of pillow fluffing and other nonsense. If an actual situation happened, any bigger type dude would knock Kenny unconscious while using Jimmy as a crossfit jump rope.
0 Wsallgood 2016-08-03
Then rappers need "staff". Not their friend from third grade who carries his kicks
3 WiretapStudios 2016-08-03
They need (and usually have, if they are smart) both. I mean you don't NEED 12 guys, you need like 2, but 10 is more imposing and impressive if you are trying to showboat.
1 Wsallgood 2016-08-03

Jim is Dice circa 2016.
2 SkepticSloth 2016-08-03
Guys at Seinfeld's level don't fly the same way we do, I'd bet Jerry owns his own Lear jet and doesn't bother with the main terminal with the rest of us plebs. No need for bodyguards, really, unless they're dealing with the public - but Jerry goes to games all the time without a guard.
Unless there's a distinct reason for personal protection, most celebs will fly with a personal assistant - which is what Kenny is. I have no doubt Seinfeld has a couple, who run his schedule and such when traveling.
1 WiretapStudios 2016-08-03
If Cabbage Patch Amy flies private (she does), you know Jerry does. He owns a Gulfstream V.
1 MicrowaveYourFork 2016-08-03
Most grownups don't.
-1 SkepticSloth 2016-08-03
Kenny isn't a body guard, he's a personal assistant - which is very common in the entertainment field, it's a symbol of success. Which Jim desperately needs, since he's incapable of moving up in the world on talent alone.

4 dankfranklin 2016-08-03
I've heard Jim tell exactly one story about "needing" Kenny for security. He said he was in a 7-11 and Jim got a "vibe" from some guy who seemed drunk and was kinda looking at him and getting closer. So Jim went outside to get Kenny and when they came back in the guy kept his distance. That's the entire story.
3 Tormenta263 2016-08-03
The guy was probably just next in line.
4 Superbad415 2016-08-03
He needs him because early birds have been known to try and "get" him.

For real, isn't Jim only 5" 8"? Imagine him trying to manage a couple of suitcases for an intercontinental flight.

Conor McGregor is only 5'9" and he towers over Jim in that horribly uncomfortable UFC video.
2 whatisthishere 2016-08-03
I always assumed Sirius paid Kenny most of his salary, especially considering he seems to drive both Opie and Jim to and from work. He also does a lot of the basic tasks, like getting them food and coffee, while they are on the radio. Keith the Cop and Master Po were also Sirius paid guys doing a similar job. Howard Stern also has a little old guy doing that same job. Kenny and Keith are retired cops who could just live off their pension, so they just want to make extra money and do something during the day.
One of Jimmy's first big breaks was getting hired by Andrew Dice Clay, and Kenny was doing for Dice, what he now does for Jimmy, so it's more like Jimmy inherited the guy. Kenny=Lenny from "Of Mice and Men."
2 rahtin 2016-08-03
Part of it is because Baby Boy is never happy with his accommodations and he's too much of an emotional bitch to handle it himself so Kenny handles the customer service reps.
Only 3 chocolate strawberries on her pillow? Call Kenny to head down and make things right because she'll just scream at the desk clerk and not accomplish anything.

baby boy is ascaird of being alone and will ultimately die alone which is great. I bet they die like an old couple. Kenny dies then worm in his grief seemingly healthy dies shortly after and joins him in fag heaven.
