Stop Pop Culture

For the life of me, everyone wants to have celebrity money but here’s a question for you: If you were celebrity rich would you tip better, the same, or worse?

Some crappy celebrity tippers below. In my opinion (and I don’t care if you agree or not), if you don’t tip your server properly, then yes, you are a bonafide douchebag. End of discussion.

AL GORE

First, he loses to George W (I suck balls) Bush in a rigged election that Gore should have rigged his way. Then, he wants to order huge breakfasts for his staff and not tip. Yes, I would have voted for Al over Dubya but that doesn’t negate the fact that he’s a mondo douche, and a boring one as well.

OJ SIMPSON

There are plenty of stories prior to his murder of Nicole Simpson that put the Juice into the negative light of crappy tippers. After the trial rocketed his stardom into the realms of infamy, he was still considered a terrible tipper by many servers that have dealt with him. It is possible he short changing the waiters in order to pay for his next criminal pursuit. With OJ, this is always a possibility.

RICHARD DREYFUSS

I kind of dig Richard Dreyfuss since he’s been in many movies I admire as well as being a top notch actor that doesn’t fail to give a great performance. In real life, however, Mr. Dreyfuss is a grade A douche. 

SHARON STONE

Apparently, Miss Stone is a nasty customer to have at your restaurant. She’s got a huge fetish with bottled water and, if you don’t accomodate her wants, she’ll throw a fit and leave a lousy tip on top of it. Maybe her servers can take solace in the fact that Stone hasn’t been in a good movie forever and she’s far from receiving big time paychecks as a leading lady. Why? Because Hollywood doesn’t seem to like her much either.

DON HENLEY

Man, even the Eagles! Don Henley is a hell of a talent but a great tipper or guest he is not. There are horror stories about him from waiters and hotel people all over the place. He’s very specific and demanding about what he needs in his hotel room before arrival and doesn’t give very good tips to anyone. Maybe he’ll give a tip When Hell Freezes Over. Okay, that was a lame joke. Sorry.

USHER

This one is my personal favorite because of the audacity of Usher. First of all, he’s a horrible tipper and doesn’t treat the restaurant staff all that well. But here’s the most arrogant, self-serving part of it all: his idea of a tip is leaving his autograph on the check! That’s about as douchey as one can possibly get, isn’t it?
