Jay-Z reportedly racked up an eye-watering $91,000 bar bill during a night out celebrating a friend’s birthday in New York in 2018.
The celebration included dinner costing $13,000 and a bar tab of $9,000 before the group hit a Manhattan hotspot called Playroom, where they reportedly spent $91,135 on bottles of Ace of Spades champagne.
The bill included an $11,000 tip for the waiting staff, which many would consider generous. However, some social media users criticized the tip, saying it was less than 15% of the total bill, sparking a heated debate online about tipping standards.
“Jay-Z left an $11,000 tip on an $80,000 tab. That’s not even 15%,” one user wrote, while others argued that tipping should be at least 20%, especially on large bills.
On the other hand, many people defended the rapper, saying that an $11,000 tip is huge by any standard and criticized those complaining about the percentage. “The world we live in, where a waitress gets an $11,000 tip and it’s frowned upon because of the % of the tip. Gotta love it!” said one commenter.
The debate over tipping continues to divide opinion, showing how complicated the topic can be, especially when big money is involved.
