Taylor Swift, the pride of Berks County was in Philadelphia last weekend to perform two shows at Lincoln Financial Field. And a girl’s gotta eat, right? After Friday night’s show, Swift and her entourage popped into Ralph’s in the Italian Market for a late-night dinner, as dutifully documented by intrepid photojournalist HughE Dillon over on PhillyChitChat. Swift, seen above in Ralph’s dining room, had chicken parm.
According to two sources, one of whom is a waiter at Ralph’s, Swift left a $500 tip on an $800 check (that’s 62.5%), which may just make her the most generous 23-year-old on the planet. Maybe she needs to have a chat with that douchey Justin Bieber, who is a reported stiffer.
Other Celebs worth mentioning being generous tippers
David Beckham: left a tip of $1,000 on a bill amounting to $100
Julia Roberts: always tips 100% of her bill
Johnny Depp: left a $4,000 tip at a Chicago Steakhouse
Celebs who have not been so generous tippers
Lebron James: left $10 on a $800 bill
Miley Cyrus: did not leave a tip when she and her sister went to Outback Steakhouse
Jeremy Piven: left a Entourage box set as a tip
Usher: notorious for leaving an autograph instead of a tip

So ONTD be honest are you a good tipper or a bad tipper? Have you ever completely bailed on leaving a tip? Have you ever worked in the service industry and got a bad tip when you deserved more?
