Chicago, June 24 (IANS) Hollywood superstar Johnny Depp shocked restaurant staff in Chicago by leaving a mammoth tip of $4,000.
The 46-year-old actor was celebrating the red carpet screening of his new movie “Public Enemies” with a group of friends including his co-star Marion Cotillard and the film’s director Michael Mann at Gibsons Bar and Steakhouse when he left the exhorbitant gratuity for waiter Mohammed A. Sekhani, Chicago Sun Times reported.
“Depp hosted a party of 15 people, including Mann and Cotillard, and the tip was split 12 ways. Depp is the finest of all the stars I have ever waited on,” Sekhani said.
“And he is a true icon, and his ability to respect others is phenomenal. He loves Chicago, and Chicago loves him. Depp is one cool and generous dude.”
The actor partied at the eatery until 2.30 a.m. before paying his bill, which came to $4,400 before the tip.
