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.

Hire The Cult
The Cult are an English rock band formed in 1983 in Bradford, West Yorkshire. Their discography includes 10 studio albums, two live albums, six compilation albums, seven video albums, five box sets, 20 EPs and 37 singles.
Before settling on their current name in January 1984, the band performed under the name Death Cult, which was an evolution of the name of lead singer Ian Astbury’s previous band, Southern Death Cult.
They gained a dedicated following in the United Kingdom in the mid-1980s as a post-punk/gothic rock band, with singles such as “She Sells Sanctuary”, before breaking into the mainstream in the United States in the late 1980s, establishing themselves as a hard rock band with singles, such as “Love Removal Machine”.

Since its initial formation in 1983, the band has had various line-ups; the longest-serving members are Astbury and guitarist Billy Duffy, who are also the band’s two songwriters.
Duffy and Astbury cited among their influences a lot of different bands, “from the Doors to Led Zeppelin. We literally went from the front of our record collections to the back. And then along the way, we were drawn in by the likes of Public Image Ltd, Joy Division, and Siouxsie and the Banshees. You might not hear it in the music, but it’s there.”

They also cited Bauhaus among many other post-punk influences. Duffy also praised Johnny Thunders and the Heartbreakers for a major performance he attended in 1977 and Siouxsie and the Banshees whom “always had great guitar players with killer riffs.”
Duffy also hailed AC/DC for “the power of a good three chord riff”, Pete Townshend of the Who “in terms of commitment to stage performing” and Brian May of Queen for using “‘echoplex’ tape delays to orchestrate his own solo”.
According to music critic Stephen Thomas Erlewine, the band fuse a “hardcore punk revivalist” sound with the “pseudo-mysticism … of the Doors and Uriah Heep and the guitar-orchestrations of Led Zeppelin and The Cure … while adding touches of post-punk goth rock.” In 1985, Astbury said, “Our music is just melodies and guitars. We’re like Big Country and U2, only better!”.
