Matt Damon gives $1,000 tip for a cup of coffee

Matt DamonHE was recently voted sexiest man alive - now Matt Damon has proved he also is one of the most generous actors around.

The Bourne Ultimatum star amazed staff at a restaurant when he had a cup of coffee - and tipped them ONE THOUSAND dollars.

"It was incredible, they could not believe it," said a source.  "It's a nice restaurant with very famous and rich clientele - but this was something else. It made everyone's day."

The 37-year-old, who lives in one of Miami's most exclusive neighbourhoods with his young family, is known for being low-key but is also famous for his charisma.

And he certainly won over staff at the Ago restaurant, at Miami Beach's trendy Shore Club hotel, when he popped in for a morning cup of coffee by himself.

Although the Goodwill Hunting star refused to have his picture taken with one of the waiters, he more than made up with his charms - and his wallet.

Rather than the traditional 10% for the $5 cup of coffee, his tip was more like 20,000%.

"Matt was really charming and friendly," added the source. "He was very discrete. He came in wearing a baseball cap and shades, by himself, and just ordered a cup of coffee.

"One of the waiters asked to take a picture, but he politely said he didn't want any fuss.

"The guy was a bit disappointed but understood. And with that tip, no-one was complaining."

Now that's some Goodwill!
