A lot of celebrities are going by their assumed name on stage; his ID doesn't say Snoop Dogg. If they are traveling as a group the tour manager or person in charge will check in for all of the rooms that they group is paying for and collect all the keys from the front desk.

Celebrities in 2026 utilize a combination of pseudonyms, back-door entries, and "Advance Teams" to check into luxury hotels discreetly. Most A-listers use an alias—for example, Beyoncé has famously used "Ingrid Jackson"—which is shared only with the hotel's General Manager and the Security Director. Instead of the lobby, celebrities are often met at a secure underground loading dock or a private VIP garage and whisked directly to their suite via a service elevator. Their "Advance Team" (bodyguards or assistants) usually arrives hours earlier to sweep the room and handle all paperwork, so the star never has to touch a credit card or ID at the front desk. On the hotel’s internal system, their room number might even be listed as "Out of Order" or "Maintenance" to prevent curious staff members from seeing who is actually registered in the Presidential Suite.
