Bio
Cristiano Ronaldo dos Santos Aveiro, known simply as Cristiano Ronaldo, was born on February 5, 1985. He is a professional football player from Portugal who plays as a forward and serves as the captain for both the Saudi Pro League team Al Nassr and the Portugal national squad. Often recognized as one of the greatest footballers ever, Ronaldo has claimed five Ballon d'Or awards, holds the record for three UEFA Men's Player of the Year honors, and has won four European Golden Shoes, the highest number for any European player. Throughout his career, he has amassed an impressive collection of 33 trophies, which includes seven league titles, five UEFA Champions League titles, the UEFA European Championship, and the UEFA Nations League.
Ronaldo boasts remarkable records in various competitions, including the most appearances (183), goals (140), and assists (42) in the Champions League, as well as the highest number of appearances (30), assists (8), and goals (14) in the European Championship. He also holds the record for the most international goals (130) and appearances (212). Among a select group, he has played over 1,200 professional matches, the highest for any outfield player, and has netted over 890 official senior goals for club and country, making him the all-time top scorer.
He kicked off his senior career at Sporting CP before making a move to Manchester United in 2003, where he won the FA Cup in his debut season. His time there also included three consecutive Premier League titles, a Champions League trophy, and a FIFA Club World Cup, and it was at the age of 23 that he secured his first Ballon d'Or. In 2009, he set a record for the most expensive football transfer at that time when he joined Real Madrid for €94 million (£80 million). At Real, he played a crucial role alongside teammates Karim Benzema and Gareth Bale, helping the club to clinch four Champions League titles from 2014 to 2018, including the celebrated La Décima. During this successful stint, he won back-to-back Ballon d'Or awards in 2013 and 2014, as well as in 2016 and 2017, while also finishing as the runner-up behind Lionel Messi three times amidst their ongoing rivalry. Ronaldo became the all-time leading scorer for Real Madrid and the Champions League, finishing as the competition’s top scorer for six straight seasons from 2012 to 2018. His achievements with Real Madrid included four Champions League titles, two La Liga championships, two Copas del Rey, two UEFA Super Cups, and three Club World Cups.
In 2018, he transferred to Juventus for an initial fee of €100 million (£88 million), marking the highest transfer for an Italian club and for any player over the age of 30. His tenure at Juventus saw him win two Serie A titles, two Supercoppa Italiana trophies, and a Coppa Italia, and he was named the inaugural Serie A Most Valuable Player. Notably, he became the first player to be the top scorer in the English, Spanish, and Italian leagues. Ronaldo made a return to Manchester United in 2021, where he ended his only full season as the club’s leading scorer, but his contract was terminated in 2022. In 2023, he joined Al Nassr, continuing his remarkable football journey.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will I need security for my event if I hire a celebrity?
Yes, the celebrity may require you to hire unarmed police or private esecurity. It depends on the status of the chosen celebrity and the type of event. The artist needs protection and everyone’s reputation is in jeopardy if they are not reasonably protected. Sometimes the celebrity will bring their own bodyguard.
Will I have to pay for the celebrity’s hotel, travel and food?
Most of the time the celebrity will expect general food and beverage accommodations for the duration of the event. In more complex bookings, they may want to be fed from the day of arrival to the day of departure. Additionally, hotels and transportation should be provided unless a buyout is included in the offer being submitted before you book a celebrity.
Will I get my money back after I have hired a celebrity and my event is canceled?
If your event is canceled sometimes you can receive a refund or a credit toward future or rescheduled performance in the event of a force majeure. Other times the contract has strict cancellation terms that must be adhered to. We help you outline the cancellation terms in the negotiating process.
Can I hire a celebrity for an event myself?
Anyone can hire a celebrity. You will pay more in most cases because an artist can tell if you are not familiar with the process. Always consult with a professional before you book a celebrity yourself. There is a specific process that should be followed.
Will a celebrity prepare a speech or promote my product at the event?
The short answer is yes. The celebrity will help promote your product and deliver a speech if that is included in the deal points when we submit the offer. A celebrity may also post the product on their social media.
What happens if a celebrity is late to my event?
Sometimes flights are delayed, it’s the unfortunate part of traveling abroad. As part of the contract process, we help eliminate delays by adding a late-arrival clause that allows you to cancel the performance if an artist is late beyond a certain point. It’s not ideal and it is rarely a concern, but the good news is that you will get your deposit back and you will not be liable for the performer’s final payment.
Can I pick which songs the celebrity performs at my event?
You can certainly create a list of songs you want performed. The celebrity will sing or perform all of the chosen songs or as many as reasonably possibly within the appearance time paid for.
Will a celebrity sing and perform at my private or public event?
Absolutely, there are some requirements to be aware of if you want a musical performance, however. A celebrity may ask you to fulfill parts of their tour rider, which outlines specific types of equipment needed to execute a live performance.
Are there any celebrities I cannot hire for my event?
It depends, some celebrities will avoid certain political affiliations, communities or parties that may be considered a conflict of interest. We will help you determine the potential obstacles before wasting any time.
Will the celebrity I choose take pictures with my family and friends?
Yes, the celebrity will take pictures with you and a small group of people assuming you make time for it during their appearance. If you want a celebrity to appear for an hour, set aside 30 minutes of that time for a meet and greet, otherwise the celebrity may not stick around for longer than what’s stated in their contract.
How much does it cost to hire a celebrity for an event?
The cost to hire a celebrity can vary from artist to artist. Other determining factors will influence the price as well. The deal points we create on your behalf , the location of your event, and duration of appearance can heavily influence the price of a celebrity booking.
Can you guarantee the celebrity will be hired for my event?
In most cases, if the celebrity is available and the offer is strong, we guarantee the chosen celebrity will strongly consider the offer. Sometimes, it makes sense to have a backup plan, however, schedules change and late bookings can be risky. It’s best to have 2-3 celebrities in mind before you start the process, just in case the first is unavailable.
When will I have to pay the celebrity to appear at my private or public event?
Typically an artist will be paid in two separate installments. The first payment is a deposit of 50% which is usually paid thirty to ninety days from the engagement. Sometimes the artist will require a full payment upfront, it depends on the scope of work and the notoriety of the celebrity being considered. The final payment of 50% is paid on the day of the event, unless there is a ticket reconciliation that needs to occur.
Will the celebrity sign autographs for my team and client?
Yes, of course. We include signed memorabilia in all of our offers (memorabilia to be provided by the venue or client).
How long does it take to hire a celebrity for a private or public ticket event?
It can take as much as three to four months to confirm a celebrity appearance, or two days depending on the deal points, offer and location of your event. Start the process early – that’s our recommendation.
What is the process for hiring a celebrity for a private or ticket event?
The process includes selecting the artist(s), contacting our agency, then creating deal points to include in an offer sheet. Once you have the details outlined, we can discuss the terms with the artist or manager. After the artist agrees to the deal points, a contract is signed, a deposit is made and the performance will happen before the remaining money is paid to the artist.
