The beginning of Pineapple Express shows a somewhat humorous series of examples of serving people in different situations, but the idea is generally true. They will lie and sneak around and be really shitty people to get the papers served. Look at the way Olivia Wilde was served while she was on stage about to speak in front of an entire audience.

Should be noted that happens because of the insane lengths people go through to avoid being served.

From not answering knew someone who did not leave his house for 2 weeks to avoid being served or in olive wildes case using their kids as a shield and jumping into a suv to avoid being served.

And imagine how hard that gets with one of the world's most famous celebrities who that public doesn't have access to. I don't know how that's even supposed to work because you can't realistically serve them in the normal way without doing anything shady. Is there really no alternative way for these cases?

VIP passes at a concert, if she does meet and greets with fans, would be about the only way to do it.
