From Jack Harlow to Charlie Sheen these stars are worried about privacy
It can be hard for celebrities to know who they can trust, especially when it comes to prospective romantic partners.
While it may not be the most charming thing to do on a first date, some celebs believe it’s in their best interest to ask their partner to sign a nondisclosure agreement -- or NDA. This ensures that none of their secrets can be spilled, should something go sour in the relationship. Although it may be a little awkward, it does let the celeb know that everyone is there for the right reasons.

And if you don’t want to do it that’s totally fine, but this is what needs to happen for us to be able to hang out. I just want us to hang out; I don't want this to be a thing on the internet,'" Jack told GQ Hype.

He then allegedly had his lawyer break up with her and she was told she was not allowed back in their home.
