Madonna Is a Poor Tipper

New York waitress Katherine Taylor wrote the book "Rules for Saying Goodbye", in which she lists the stars who leave the least to their wait staff.

Taylor insists that all of the anecdotes in her book are true, and come from her experience as a bartender in New York’s West Village.  Taylor writes, "Gwyneth Paltrow came in. I wanted to tell her that I had been making a list and she was on it, but Gwyneth was not stingy, only stupid. I thought she probably couldn’t calculate 15 per cent."

The book lists Rupert Everett and Madonna as leaving no tips at all.  Maguire, Barbra Streisand and John Travolta’s wife, Kelly Preston, were named as celebrities who left no tip at all.  Another story from the book reveals, "Paul McCartney was once too drunk to tip".

John Travolta Rocks the Neighbourhood

According to the National Enquirer, Travolta, 53, has a passion for planes, but does not follow the noise pollution laws of his town.  Travolta’s Gulfstream jet often disturbs the silence of Owl’s Head, Maine during the night hours.

Travolta, who starred in the film Be Cool, among others, often uses the Knox County airport near his home when flying his plane.  Noise pollution rules state that planes are not to arrive or depart between the hours of 10 p.m. and 6 a.m.  Resident Jeff Northgraves said of the law, "Pilots have abided by that with one exception – Travolta."

Northgraves, who works at the airport, has received letters protesting the special treatment that Travolta has been given.
