Jason Biggs Calls Out Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf

A Los Angeles Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf shop was caught having these two tip jars on display by the American Pie franchise star. Apparently, the jars were out so that visitors of the location could vote for their favorite Paul Walker film. Hello! The guy just passed away three days ago. It’s shocking to believe that employees at that location would find this appropriate or that a manager would approve it. Thanks to Jason’s tweet, a spokesperson was able to remedy the issue, but I don’t think anyone is going to forget about this incident happening.

A spokesperson for that specific store also assured NBC News that the jars have been taken off the counter, adding that they cannot release the location in question “as the matter is still under investigation.”

“This is completely inconsistent with our brand values and the jars have since been removed. Our thoughts and condolences remain with the many friends and family of Paul Walker during this difficult time. The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf® would like to thank Jason Biggs for bringing this matter to our attention,” the company said in a statement to NBC4.

RIP Paul Walker

I was at dinner this evening when I learned that Paul Walker had passed away at age 40.  Known for his stint in a string of teenage rom-com movies like She’s All That and the Fast and the Furious franchise, Paul was a dreamboat for the girls of the 90’s and the equivalent of our Liam Hemsworth. We are saddened and shocked by his death from a car accident and are sending prayers to friends and family affected. Paul leaves behind his young daughter Meadow.
