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 Clay Walker
aka: Ernest Clayton Walker Jr.
Ernest Clayton Walker Jr., known professionally as Clay Walker, is an American country music artist.
He made his debut in 1993 with the single “What’s It to You”, which reached Number One on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks (now Hot Country Songs) chart, as did its follow-up, 1994’s “Live Until I Die”.
Clay Walker has been compared to Mark Chesnutt and Tracy Byrd, both of whom are also Beaumont, Texas, natives who began their careers shortly before Walker did. He cites George Jones (also a Beaumont native) as a primary influence, as well as James Taylor and Bob Seger.
Clay Walker’s discography includes eleven studio albums and a greatest hits album, as well as 36 singles. Walker’s first four studio albums—Clay Walker, If I Could Make a Living, Hypnotize the Moon and Rumor Has It—are all certified platinum by the RIAA, and his greatest hits album and Live, Laugh, Love are each certified gold by the RIAA.
Clay Walker is also certified platinum by the CRIA, while If I Could Make a Living and Hypnotize the Moon are certified gold.

What could a recording artist who has sold millions of albums, performed for sellout crowds, and racked up hit after hit possibly have left to prove? For Clay Walker, the answer is nothing. And everything.
And why not when you’re speaking of four platinum and two gold albums that sold more than eight million copies combined? Among Walker’s 11 No. 1 singles are “Live Until I Die,” “If I Could Make A Living, “This Woman And This Man,” “Then What” and “Chain Of Love.”

He is the only artist to have one of his songs included five years consecutively in Billboard’s year-end Top 10 country list. He’s also been one of the country’s top 10-grossing touring acts several times.
Certainly, sure handed to this point in his career, Clay Walker has, if anything, tightened his artistic grip. He has become secure in himself – accepting of his strengths while mindful of his challenges. That sense of self has guided his view of the world and continues to shape his musical journey.
Hire Clay Walker:
The accumulated experiences that have shaped his life and music trace all the way back to his teenage years spent performing in and around his hometown of Beaumont, Texas. They include the devotion he has to his wife and two daughters, his ongoing fight with multiple sclerosis (currently in remission), and most importantly, his abiding, life-long faith, which Walker continues to embrace and explore.

Clay Walker began playing guitar at age 9 and played the area honky-tonks as a teenager. He signed to Giant Records, a small label compared to the majors in Nashville, and his commercial sound proved lucrative.
Released in 1993, his first two singles reached No. 1, and he emerged as a popular live performer, especially in Texas. By the end of 1998, he had notched a dozen Top 5 hits, and his first four studio albums were certified platinum. Within two years, his “Greatest Hits” and the follow-up album “Live, Laugh, Love” were certified gold.
