Bodyguard to the stars
When Kim Mojidi reached to shake hands with Rolling Stones drummer Charlie Watts, Kim's false front tooth shot out and hit Charlie in the chest.
As Kim recaptured and replaced the wayward incisor, he stammered out an apology, blaming the mouthy missile on nerves.
“Don’t worry,” said Watts, removing his own top plate of falsies.
“It happens to me all the time.”
It might not have been a dream meeting with the Stones member but Kim, of Nambour, is on good terms with the band, having twice provided security for them during tours.
And the Stones are not the only celebrities that the burly martial arts and self-defence expert, who runs his own security company, Lyonxx Security, has rubbed shoulders with during his career.
His services have at times been called upon to guard Miss World contestants, Boy George and Duran Duran and he has met the likes of actor Tom Hanks, multi-millionaire businessman Steve Bing and Slash from Guns’n’Roses at after-parties.
Kim, who began martial arts as an eight-year-old, got into the security business through bar work in London, during which he made connections with former Stones bass player Bill Wyman, who had opened his own restaurant, Sticky Fingers.
Kim moved to Australia with his Nambour-born wife in 1993, leaving behind his celebrity-studded lifestyle to start his own security firm and teach self defence.
The 49-year-old acknowledges that life in Nambour is a little quieter than in his London days.
“My mum, when she came out here, said, ‘You’ll never stick it out,’ but that’s the attraction of it. I had that life for maybe 12 years full-on. It’s nice to have a bit of fun every now and then, but it’s the contrast that I like,” he said.
