Post Malone is in his giving era.
On Christmas Eve, the “Rockstar” singer, 29, made bartender Renee Brown’s night at The Railyard in Houston when he tipped her $20,000, she told Music Mayhem in a new interview.
The outlet reported Brown is a single mom who struggled being away from her nine-year-old daughter as she worked on the holiday. Little did she know, her luck was about to change.
“Going into work Christmas Eve, I was so sad I had to leave my baby girl to go to work. Oblivious that God would send me a Christmas miracle. This is hands down the most humble, personable celebrity I’ve had the pleasure of meeting. He changed my life on Christmas f—ing Eve, and will forever be grateful. Thank you so much, Austin,” she said of Malone (born Austin Richard Post).
Brown also shared how she plans to use the money given to her by the “Sunflower” performer, who grew up in Grapevine, Texas.
“This put me in a position to at least be able to get a way back and forth to work and pay up on rent and save a bit. I’m trying to save up to start a business, so I don’t have to continue working two jobs and be able to spend more time with my daughter,” she said.
“Things have been extremely difficult, and this was truly a blessing that I can’t fully put into words,” Brown concluded. “The visit alone was absolutely amazing and something I could talk about and remember for the rest of my life.”
Malone’s generous donation happened one day before he made a surprise cameo during Beyoncé’s epic Christmas Day halftime show at the Texans-Ravens game at NRG Stadium. Together, they performed their hit collab “LEVII’S JEANS.”
“Thank you @Beyonce so much for havin me out in Houston, and on your beautiful record. Also, thank you for sharin your talent and art with the world. I love you,” he wrote on X.
This summer, Malone — who released his first country album F-1 Trillion in August — will embark on The Big Ass Stadium Tour with his “Losers” collaborator Jelly Roll.
After its release, F-1 Trillion reached No. 1 on the Billboard 200 albums chart. In December, the album was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).
At the upcoming Grammy Awards, the “Chemical” singer is nomination for seven awards, including best country album and best recording package for F-1 Trillion as well as best country song and best country duo/group performance for “I Had Some Help” with Morgan Wallen.
