Although less frequently requested, the following might be considered, also.
- A non-performance personal appearance.
An example would be to hire a celebrity to attend a private or corporate party as simply a (non-performing) guest to mingle with other guests, or to hire the celebrity to do a meet-and-greet at your party.
- A virtual performance.
A virtual performance is a live or recorded show—such as a concert, play, dance, comedy act, or other artistic presentation—that is broadcast or streamed online instead of being performed in front of a physical audience. Artists perform live from a studio, venue, or even their homes and stream the show on platforms like YouTube, Twitch, or Instagram Live. Essentially, a virtual performance brings entertainment to audiences through the internet rather than in-person venues.

aka: Keith Farrelle Cozart, Sosa, BigGucci Sosa
Keith Farrelle Cozart (born August 15, 1995), better known by his stage name, Chief Keef, is an American rapper, singer, songwriter, and record producer.
In 2011, Chief Keef first attracted local attention from Chicago’s South Side community with his mixtapes, The Glory Road and Bang.
Keef’s song “I Don’t Like” became a hit in Chicago. A local party promoter called it “the perfect Chicago song because ‘niggas just hate everything out here'”. It caught Kanye West‘s attention, and he remixed the song with rappers Pusha T, Jadakiss and Big Sean. As a result, Keef “suddenly shot up out of obscurity”.

In March 2020, Chief Keef earned his first major production credit on Lil Uzi Vert‘s second studio album, Eternal Atake, with the song “Chrome Heart Tags”. Chief Keef was later featured on Uzi‘s album, Lil Uzi Vert vs. the World 2, with a vocal performance on the song “Bean (Kobe)”, which became his highest-charting song on the Hot 100 at number 19.
