It’s an unstated fact that every celebrity is obligated to put their friends on in the form of enabling a sizeable struggle crew.
And while some friends never graduate from carrying the Swishers, these 12 notorious celebrity entourages are by and large comprised of friends who made their own individual mark.

The Roc
Few crews repped harder than Jay, Dame, Biggs, and the rest of The Roc. A lot of the people in this picture are making significantly less money these days though.
The Money Team
While Ray J, 50 Cent, and Bieber regularly flick it up with Floyd, the actual Money Team is comprised of a bunch of nondescript dudes who presumably have history with Mr. Mayweather.
Death Row Records
Imagine the stories (and music) that would emerge from having Dr. Dre, Suge Knight, Tupac, and Snoop Dogg in the same room. That doesn’t even mention their homies signed to other labels like Jodeci and DJ Quik.
LeBron James And LRMR
The crew mentality mythologized on shows like Entourage has been brought to real life with LeBron James’ crew. The LRMR crew of LeBron James, Maverick Carter, Rich Paul, and Randy Mims negotiates shoe deals, they sign other athletes, they greenlight TV shows and movies, and they’re also responsible for “The Decision.” Hey, you can’t win them all.
Eddie Murphy’s Crew
Thanks to the magic of Dave Chappelle, we now know Ed rolled with Prince, Charlie Murphy, and Rick James, and the stories were apparently epic.

The Rat Pack
This is the group we all aspire to be like during those Vegas runs. Respect the OGs.

Allen Iverson’s Entourage
While conservative pundits wanted to blame A.I.’s crew for his off the court troubles and popularizing the celebrity entourage, his boys from Newport News were holding it down and allegedly scouting new “prospects.”

The Kardashians and Jenners
Much like the mythical Marvel character Galactus, the Kardashians envelop you into their world. They’ve worked their magic on Kanye West, Lamar Odom, Reggie Bush, French Montana, James Harden, Tyga, and more.
Michael Vick’s Crew
If you were a part of Michael Vick’s entourage, living in a huge mansion and co-running a dog fighting ring came with just one responsibility. Don’t let the homie get arrested. Instead, these fools snitched and everyone ended up in jail.

Paris Hilton And Friends
As the de facto celebutante godmother, Paris made the likes of Kim Kardashian and Nicole Richie famous. In turn, their significant others and ancillary family members got on too.

The Brat Pack
As far as mainstream twenty-something actors from the ‘80s go, Anthony Michael Hall, Rob Lowe, Andrew McCarthy, Demi Moore, Judd Nelson, Molly Ringwald, and Ally Sheedy ran things.

The P***y Posse
At it’s peak, Leonardo DiCaprio’s crew ran through so much celebrity trim they became known as The P***y Posse. Members included Kevin Connolly, Tobey Macguire, and David Blaine, and the name was allegedly well earned.
