Russell Crowe Leaves 600-Pound Tip In Welsh Pub

Text

When he had finished singing, Russell paid the 240 pound bill and returned to his trailer on the movie set.

Russell Crowe serenaded staff at a Welsh pub before leaving them a £600 tip.

The 45-year-old actor - who is in Wales filming his latest movie 'Robin  Hood' - surprised locals when he took nine friends for a meal at the Carew  Inn, near Tenby, last week.

The party ate mussels and a Jamie Oliver-inspired chicken dish before  belting out Bryan Adams' 'Summer of '69' and Peter, Paul and Mary's 'Leaving  On A Jet Plane'.

When he had finished singing, Russell paid the £240 bill and returned to his  trailer on the movie set, leaving a wad of bills on his table.

A member of staff said: "Now if anyone badmouths him I tell them to shut up.  He could have paid and just left but they stayed instead and entertained us. "Then he paid us that tip - it's the last thing you expect. He seemed quite  friendly and chatty like a really nice guy, and he had a great singing
voice."

Another staff member added: "It was surreal. When they first got here they  sat in the garden but people started trying to sneak around and take  pictures of them so they moved inside. Two of them were some kind of  bodyguards because they were walking around constantly, it was quite
intimidating.

"But later he came into the kitchen and gave us all his autograph and we had  a quick chat. Then he gave my boss the tip and they left. We were like, 'Did  that just happen?' "
