Victoria Beckham and Katie Holmes allegedly angered a waitress after refusing to leave her a tip.

The Spice Girl and the 'Batman Begins' star, who have become firm friends in recent months, were enjoying lunch at the Mondrian Hotel's Asia de Cuba restaurant in Hollywood.

However, after settling the bill, which Katie is said to have paid in full, the Baltimore Sun newspaper reports the pair didn't leave the waitress a tip, which is customary in the US. When the girl tried to run after the stars, she was reportedly stopped by Victoria's security team.

The 33-year-old singer - who recently moved to Los Angeles with husband David and their three sons after he signed a multi-million dollar contract with the Los Angeles Galaxy soccer team - has a reputation for being frugal with money.

Despite having millions in the bank, David said his wife is very sensible when it comes to splashing her cash and has to put a curb on his spending. He recently revealed: "Victoria is the one who tells me, 'You can't pay for that'. She's the sensible one who tells me not to be so silly,"

"She will tell me in a restaurant just to get a cheap bottle of wine, so I tell her it only cost £15 when really it cost much more. She's the sensible one in the relationship who watches where the money goes."
