EZ VIP's Mysterious Disappearance: Once Thriving Concierge Business Now Inactive
EZ VIP, a concierge business founded by Willie Nelson, once made waves in the event planning scene. Starting at just 13 years old, Nelson followed in his mother's footsteps to create a service that offered customers VIP access to nightclubs and events. The company's website and Nelson's LinkedIn profile, however, are no longer active, leaving its current status unclear.
Nelson's journey began in Miami, Florida, where he launched EZ VIP. The business quickly gained traction, generating a substantial $250,000 in revenue and a net profit of $9,000 before appearing on Shark Tank. The service allowed customers to conveniently make reservations and enjoy special treatment at various events and clubs.
EZ VIP's popularity led to an expansion into Las Vegas, following collaborations with local club owners. However, the company's website went dark shortly after a revised segment aired on Shark Tank, where Nelson pitched for a $150,000 investment in exchange for a 15% stake. Daymond John and Mark Cuban ultimately invested $150,000 for a 30% stake in the company.
Despite its initial success and high-profile investment, EZ VIP's website has since been taken down, and there is no recent verified information about the company or its founder, Willie Nelson. As of October 2025, searches have not yielded any updates on their current status or operations.
