Las Vegas runs on tokes (tips). So when a celebrity (even a Double D-list one like Britney Spears' ex) stiffs the wait staff, it is big news in Sin City.
This article in the Las Vegas Sun is the most read http://www.lasvegassun.com/news/2009/jul/31/hard-rock-calls-out-k-fed-stiffing-servers/
The Hard Rock perpetuated this story through their social networking sites, and apparently thinks there is no such thing as bad press.
K-OverFed was in their resort to film a reality show (presumeably about his weight gain) and Wasted Space comped his party a couple of bottles of Grey Goose and some Red Bull.
He left without leaving a tip.
I question why he was comped in the first place, but a reality show can bring a lot of publicity to a Casino/Resort (look what the Real World did for the Palms), so I guess it isn't too unusual.
That assumption leads to another assumption that K-Fed probably expected a producer (these reality shows have hundreds of "producers" -- basically just annoying young kids (probably interns) running around acting as go-fers and such)to take care of a tedious task such as tipping.
That, or K-Fed is just a giant douchebag.
Hey, Even shlumpy baby daddies are feeling the pinch.
