Houston
Post Malone tipped bartender $20,000
A single mother had to work at Christmas instead of being with her daughter. Rapper Post Malone walked into their bar – and left a generous tip.
US musician Post Malone sweetened a bartender’s Christmas in Houston, according to the woman’s words. “When I went to work on Christmas Eve, I was so sad that I had to leave my little girl behind,” the single mother told music magazine Music Mayhem. During her shift, Post Malone unexpectedly showed up with friends.
Post Malone asked for the bill
“That lifted the mood in the entire bar. It was great to see everyone so happy,” said the bartender. The rapper and his companions stayed until the early hours of the morning. When Post Malone wanted to pay, it turned out that bar patrons and friends had paid for all of his drinks. Post Malone still asked the bartender for a bill so that he could leave a tip.
Ten superstars who grew up poor
Leighton Meester
Her start in life could hardly have been more unfortunate: Than Leighton Meester When she was born on April 9, 1986 in Fort Worth, Texas, her mother was serving a prison sentence. She helped smuggle drugs from Jamaica to the USA – and got caught. Leighton spent the first three months of her life in a rehabilitation center, after which her mother had to go back behind bars – and the little one went to live with her grandmother.
Meester didn’t let the difficult start stop her and went her own way: She played theater in her childhood in Florida, and as a teenager she moved to New York with her mother, where she had a steep career as a model. She moved to Los Angeles when she was just 14 years old – and her film career took off shortly afterwards. She is best known for her role as Blair Waldorf on the series “Gossip Girl”, which she played from 2007 to 2012.
