In an unexpected act of generosity, renowned singer Austin Richard Post, better known as Post Malone, left a waitress speechless after leaving a massive tip while dining at a restaurant. The Reddit user, who works as a server, shared her story on the popular subreddit r/Serverlife, revealing that Malone left a tip that surpassed any she had received in her nearly two decades of service.

She posted a photo of the original bill, showing a total of $3,472, to which Malone added an extra $3,000 as a tip. The final amount? A staggering $6,472. "Been serving nearly 20 years and by far the best tip I have ever received. Such a genuine and cool dude," the waitress captioned the post.

Celebrity Generosity

Malone’s tipping generosity is not a one-time event. Several Reddit users quickly jumped in, sharing their own stories of receiving similar tips from celebrities. One user recalled working at Malone's birthday party and getting $1,000 in tips after just five hours of work. Another user shared their experience serving rapper Earl Sweatshirt, who frequently tipped 100% of his bill and always requested the same server.

While celebrities like Malone, Earl Sweatshirt, and Martin Sheen are praised for their generous tipping habits, other stories revealed that not all celebrities are as charitable. A user alleged that Noah Cyrus left a tip of less than 15%, while Katy Perry, who dined with Orlando Bloom and their children, reportedly tipped 25%, contrasting Bloom’s under-20% tip.

Tipping Culture and Impact

Tipping remains a debated topic in America. With tipped workers' wages often lower than the federal minimum wage, tips are a crucial part of their earnings. According to Forbes, servers can earn as little as $7.25 per hour due to tip credit laws.

In conclusion, Post Malone's kindness serves as a reminder that, for those working in the service industry, a generous tip can make a lasting impact. As the original poster put it: "By far the best tip I have ever received."
