Caring Hollywood Celebrities, Stiffin' The Common Man on Tips

Good stuff:

"What a bitch!" declared one entry that claimed Jennifer Lopez's tipping habits were less generous than her derriere, after she allegedly left only $1.27 as a tip on $350 bill at an unnamed Manhattan eatery.

The entry claimed that the measly tip came after J.Lo complained that her water was cold and asked the staff to warm it up.

Another entry claimed that fellow diva Barbra Streisand was equally parsimonious in her tipping habits — allegedly giving only $10, or roughly 2 percent, for a $457 bill.

"She demanded the best table, acting rude to everyone, and then barely tipped," the entry said.

More: The American Thinker has read a bit of the site (www.bitterwaitress.com), and digs up some other celebrity skinflints.

Michael Moore? 3% tipper. What a hero.

Well, yeah, but on the other hand, that's likely 3% of a very VERY large number.

Posted by: zetetic on November 26, 2005 04:01 PM

Beat me to it z -
What's 3% on $157,000?

Posted by: rickinstl on November 26, 2005 04:19 PM

How much does Moore tip the janitors who have to clean-up after him?

Posted by: B Moe on November 26, 2005 05:34 PM

I once waited on fight promoter Don King in Memphis. Him and his entourage were very cool to the staff and tipped $200 on a $800 bill. Goes to show you can never judge a book by it's cover.

Posted by: Brass on November 26, 2005 05:35 PM

Memories... haunt the corners of that waitress' mind. Babs better expect a reaping of her sowing.

They're just doing their part to help the proletariat develop class consciousness.

Posted by: Guy T. on November 26, 2005 06:32 PM

Not. Suprised. At all.

You know, I've heard it said that a lot of these celebrities have to pay so much out of pocket for agents and publicists and bodyguards and such that they're only left with a fraction of their otherwise ridiculously large paychecks.

Since they're still living large in the end it's hard to feel sorry for them, but I wonder if that isn't part of what factors into their odd habits of demanding that everyone else should pay fat Democrat taxes while being so stingy with what they have left.

Posted by: Sortelli on November 26, 2005 06:51 PM

I waited on Don Ho once. Good tip.

Posted by: runninrebel on November 26, 2005 07:00 PM

What's to stop someone from stopping by that site and saying that Ace left only a crumpled. empty pack of Virginia Slims and pewter D&D wizard figurine with a busted staff as a tip on his $30 bill at Applebees?

Hmmmm... I do have a few minutes to kill.

Posted by: The Warden on November 26, 2005 07:16 PM

Of course, Mikey's doing it just so the proletariat don't become complacent under capitalism. After the Socialist Revolution? 75 percent tip for the cup of black coffee that you picked up yourself at the counter.

Posted by: alex on November 26, 2005 07:44 PM

Michael Moore's actually in that database twice -- probably. The second hit's in New York.

Might just be another guy with the same name, but how many fat Michael Moores can there be?

Posted by: John Nowak on November 26, 2005 08:47 PM

Trouble is, none of the stories on bitterwaitress.com is verified, so who knows how much of it is made up? Fun reading, though. I especially liked the one where Tara Reid shows up plastered at a Starbucks, demands alcohol, is informed they don't sell booze, gets mad, tries the "do you know who I am?" ploy, it doesn't work, she gets madder, and then lifts up her top and flashes her boobs to the guy next to her and demands to know if they aren't convincing to him.

That one I can believe.

Posted by: OregonMuse on November 26, 2005 08:48 PM

The best tipper I know of is Andre Agassi. He tips 100% every time.

Posted by: Donnah on November 26, 2005 08:56 PM

After their concert Monday(11/21) in Trenton NJ, Springsteens band and entourage showed up at a local bowling alley/bar/restaurant - bowled, drank and ate to the tune of a "grand", left a $360 tip(all cash) and plenty of comp tickets for Tuesdays concert. No "Boss" but I don't think the barmaid, waitress, alley attendant gave a shit. What else could have happened? Autograph - worthless.

Posted by: Straight From The Bottom on November 26, 2005 09:57 PM

I wish these were true. Unfortunately, the site claims that Ann Coulter purged her dinner, and George W. Bush flung feces at the other diners.

Regardless, Michael Moore is still a fat, despicable horse hemorrhoid. (Comments wouldn't let me call him a b@$*@rd

Posted by: adolfo velasquez on November 26, 2005 10:29 PM

A long time ago, I got "story of the month" on http://www.stainedapron.com (a site where waitresses bitch about customers...).

Some customer was rudely bitchin' at the Olive Garden about not getting their free salad refill quickly enough, and Dennis, this waiter guy that also did overnight DJing, said [in a perfectly calm voice], "Oh, since I'm busy, I'll have my negro get that salad for you."

The black host started doing some hyperactive painted-face black tapdance and said, "Yes massa! I gets that salad for yas! Yes massa! Anythings else, massa?" Of course those two were good friends. Only Dennis got fired though.

Funniest. Scene. Ever.

Would you like a mint Mr. Moore? It's wafer thin!

Posted by: fugazi on November 26, 2005 11:11 PM

Would it be totally inappropriate to point out that John Kerry is in there like ten times?

Posted by: Charles on November 27, 2005 01:23 AM

And unlike most of the W entries, which just list a city without too many details, alot of the Kerry entries list the restaurant, so it could be verified.
If anyone actually gave enough of a damn.

Posted by: HowardDevore on November 27, 2005 03:55 AM

Bill Paxton, decent tipper and can hold his booze.

Posted by: ArmChair in sin on November 27, 2005 10:43 AM

How could I forget Stephen Hawking on karaoke night? He's a good sport.

(Don't even ask)

OK, now I have the MIDI version of 'Fly Me to the Moon' rolling around by head!

Not that most of you would consider them to be celebrities, but my friends have served Kurt Angle and several other wrestlers, all of whom tip between 20 and 30 percent.

woohoo.. 3 posts, different variations for each. Sorry about that.

Worked in a bar when some clown called in. Whole nine yards about some mook from Blink 182 wanting to come in. Wanted special access, comped drinks. Manager was a douche, said OK. While I'm pulling a brew for a reg this clown asks me if I know who he is. I said no but offered that I knew what he was. Bad tip.

At a completely separate place a bunch of rednecks sat at my table. Not a problem for me due to my redneck past, though I got some guff at the wait station. They started to pull up chairs from my empty tables and block the ingress and egress of my humble self. Went to caution them and realized that they were Skynryd. Good tippers, but they want separate checks.

"It's f**king f**ked."
-- reportedly a genuine comment offered by a "senior Labour source"
Correction: I wrote that Labour is losing 88% (now 87%) of the seats it is "defending." I think that's wrong. The right way to say it is the seats they are contesting -- that is, they don't necessarily already hold these seats, but they have put up a candidate to run for the seat. It's still very bad but not as bad as losing 87% of the seats they already held.

🚨ED MILIBAND [a Minister in Starmer's government] SAYS KEIR STARMER WILL RESIGN AS PRIME MINISTER

He has reportedly reassured Labour MP's that Starmer will be resigning following the disastrous results tonight

It's over
"The end of the two party system in the UK" as first the Fake Conservatives and now Labour chooses political suicide rather than simply STOPPING THE INVASION
Incidentally, the only reason this didn't already happen in the US is because of the Very Bad Orange Man (who is right on 85% of all policy calls and extremely, existentially right on 15% of them)
No political party that is NOT also a doomsday religious cult would EVER choose a cataclysmic loss -- and possible extinction as a party -- to support a toxically unpopular favoritism of NON-CITIZEN ILLEGAL MIGRANTS over actual citizen voters.

Only a cult does this.
Now they've lost 84%.
Annunziata Rees-Mogg
@zatzi
If this continues Labour loses 2,148 seats tonight.

That is much worse than the worst case predictions I’ve seen.

Cataclysmic

Update: They've now lost 88% of the seats they're defending. As I mentioned earlier, I think I heard that London will not bail them out, as many of those Labour seats will probably flip to "Muslim Independent" or Green. Detroit's 5am vote will not save them.
Yup, Labour is losing 80% of its seats...
The British Patriot
@TheBritLad

🚨 BREAKING: Labour have lost 80% of all seats contested as of 2:25 AM.<
br> If this continues, Keir Starmer will be out of office next week.

Reform has surged and projected to pick up between 1700-2100 seats.


Wow, up to 1700-2100 seats. It's not incredible that this is happening. It's incredible that the Davos crowd is so absolutely determined to privilege Muslim "migrants" over the actual native population who elects them, no matter how loudly the natives scream that they want to be prioritized, that they will gladly self-extinguish as a party rather than simply representing the interests of their own voters. Astonishing.
Remember, when they call other people "cultists" -- they are the ones so imprisoned in their social reinforcement and discipline bubbles that they will choose political death rather than dare upset the Karen Enforcement Officers of their cult.
Update: Now they've lost 83% of the seats they were defending.

@DPJHodges

Reform are basically wiping Labour out in the North. It's not a defeat. It's not even a rout. Labour are simply ceasing to exist.


Nick Lowles
@lowles_nick

Tonight’s results are calamitous for Labour. Not just for Keir Starmer's leadership, but for the very future of the party
STARMERGEDDON: In early returns, Reform gains 135 seats, Labour loses 90, the Fake Conservatives lose 36 (and I didn't even know they could fall any further), the Lib Dems lose 4, and the Greens gain 6. Note that the only other party gaining seats is the Greens and they're only gaining a handful of seats.
Update: Reform now up 145, Labour down 98.
Labour projected to lose Wales -- where they've ruled for 27 years.
Fulton County Georgia just discovered 400 boxes of ballots for Labour
Update: REF +156, LAB -107, CON -45
Brutal: In four out of five council seats where Labour is defending, they've lost. 80%.
I'm sure it's not this simple, but Reform is straight taking Labour's and the "Conservatives'" seats. They've lost almost exactly what Reform gained. If understand this right (and warning, I probably don't), all of London's council seats are up for election, and Labour might lose hugely there, as their old voters abandon them for Reform, Muslim Indenpendents, and the Greens.
REF +190, LAB -134, CON -56.
Updates on the Labour collapse in council elections -- which wags are calling #Starmergeddon -- from Beege Welborne. There are about 5000 seats up for grabs, Labour is expected to lose 1,800, Reform will probably gain 1,580, up from... zero. So this would be more than that.
People claim that while Labour has adopted the Sharia Agenda to appeal to the million Muslims it allowed to migrate to the country, those voters are ditching Labour to vote for the Muslim Independent Party or the Greens. Delicious. This shadenfreude is going straight to my thighs.
Oh, and if Starmer loses about as badly as expected, Labour will toss him out of a window Braveheart style and replace him. He will announce he is resigning to spend more time with his Gay Ukrainian Male Prostitutes.
Media bias and senationalism are as old as, well, the media:

That was written by Denny O'Neill and illustrated by, get this, Frank Miller. Editor to the Stars Jim Shooter was in charge at the time.
I always thought the gag was original to the comic book, but in fact the "Threat or Menace" headline was a satirical joke about media bias and sensationalism for a long while. The Harvard Lampoon used it in a parody of Life magazine: "Flying Saucers: Threat or Menace?"
