5 celebrities slammed for bad manners and low tips in restaurants

Meghan Markle

The Duchess of Sussex has also been at the center of discussions regarding her restaurant behavior.

A former employee of a New York establishment recalled that during her visit, Markle’s team made special requests.

In particular, they asked for a separate table with the highest level of privacy.

When this could not be fully provided, the atmosphere reportedly became tense, and Markle herself behaved distantly and hardly interacted with the staff.

Anna Wintour

The Vogue editor-in-chief has long been considered one of the most demanding clients in the restaurant world.

According to employees, she may arrive without a reservation, expecting immediate service.

Wintour is especially known for her preference for steaks cooked to a precise degree.

If a dish does not meet her expectations, her reaction can be quite harsh.

It was also reported that on one occasion, service was even arranged for her in a restaurant’s staff area.

Tiger Woods

One of the richest athletes in the world, with an estimated fortune of over $1 billion, has long had a reputation as a stingy customer. According to media reports, the golfer sometimes left minimal tips even after large expenditures.

One of the most notorious incidents occurred at a casino: Woods allegedly left only $5 in tips and later even took it back, claiming he had already given a tip earlier that evening.

Additionally, former acquaintances of the athlete said that sometimes they had to pay tips on his behalf.

James Corden

The TV host was involved in a major scandal after a conflict at the popular New York restaurant Balthazar.

The restaurant owner publicly called him one of the worst customers in the establishment’s history.

According to the owner, Corden allegedly yelled at a waiter over an incorrectly served dish and behaved aggressively.

The incident gained wide attention on social media, after which the host had to issue a public apology.

Although the conflict was eventually resolved, it left a mark on his reputation.

Jeremy Piven

The actor has also gained a reputation for poor behavior in restaurants. One incident occurred during a festival in Aspen, when he arrived with a large group at a popular restaurant without a reservation.

Although the staff found them a table, Piven, according to witnesses, remained dissatisfied and, as he left, threw the manager the phrase: “Thanks for nothing.”

After this, he was banned from visiting that restaurant as well as some other locations in the chain.
