‘Home Alone’ Star Recalls Running Up Insane Bar Bill After Donald Trump Offered To Pay Tab
HuffPost
Daniel Stern recalled the future president eking his way into a “Home Alone 2” cameo and making a giant mistake at the bar one night.
Daniel Stern truly became a “Wet Bandit” when Donald Trump was his co-star.
The actor reprised his role as one of the grubby thieves in “Home Alone 2: Lost in New York” (1992), which was only granted permission to film at the renowned Plaza Hotel in exchange for a cameo from Trump — who acquired the iconic building a few years prior.
Stern recalled Trump making a giant mistake after closing that deal, however.
“Donald ended up doing a cameo, but his real contribution was letting us film there, lending the luster of the Plaza to the movie,” he wrote in a passage from his “Home and Alone” memoir obtained Monday by Page Six, adding Trump was apparently a “huge” fan of his.
Trump had already established himself as an unscrupulous real estate mogul, the de facto face of New York City’s nouveau riche, but despite teasing a presidential bid in the 1980s, had yet to enter the political fray when the “Home Alone 2” crew filled his hotel.
