A waitress has praised Post Malone after allegedly leaving her a whopping £2,446 tip at the end of his meal. Sharing her surprise on Reddit, she claims the American rapper made sure to treat the service staff to a cash gift before leaving the restaurant.
In her post, she wrote: "Post Malone is a wonderful person and a great tipper. I have been serving nearly 20 years and by far, this is the best tip I have ever received." Describing Post as a "genuine and cool dude", she shared how he spent $3,472.50 (£2,829), including tax and a 20 per cent service charge, in the restaurant alongside his $3,000 (£2,426) tip.
Post Malone, born Austin Richard Post, has won multiple awards for his music including three American Music Awards, ten Billboard Music Awards and a MTV Video Music Award. At only 28-years-old, he is among the best-selling music artists with over 80 million records sold.

She added: "This begs the question. Which celebrities have you served that were really generous? Any surprisingly cheap celebrities?" In response, one user said: "I was working at a place that did a pooled house. Post Malone came in with a group, and we all made rent that night. Thanks Posty!"

Another user added: "Paris Hilton came to my local mall to promote her perfume years ago. You could purchase the perfume, and she'd take a photo with you and sign it.
"Me and my rag-tag group of friends came to see her, but none of us could afford the perfume, so we just cheered from behind the barricade. Toward the end of the event, she eventually called us up to the stage and took a photo with us, printed a copy for everyone, and signed each. It was very sweet."
A third user said: "Dave Matthews, Phil Mickelson and Ray Allan have all been absolutely awesome! I’ve only waited on Phil and Ray once. Dave, I’ve waited on several times. They’ve all been great!"
One more user added: "I'm not a server but Martin Sheen was a regular at one of my favourite spots in the Poconos. I was there one night when he picked up everyone's tabs at the bar and hung out for a solid hour. This was years ago so he was also with the late, greats Jack Palance, Paul Sorvino and Jason Miller. The staff said he always tipped 100 per cent and would routinely pay for everyone who was there that night. Cool guy."
