Being friends with Jennifer Aniston sure does pay off. The "We're the Millers" actress showed just how kind she can be by giving a friend a part in her upcoming movie, Hollyscoop reports.
Aniston, who is preparing for her next movie "Squirrels to the Nuts," requested for Dimitri Dimitrov to be cast in the movie. Dimitrov is a maître d' at the Tower Bar inside the Sunset Tower Hotel in West Hollywood where Aniston, among other A-list celebrities, frequent to.
In the past Dimitrov has received tremendous praise for being discreet, respecting the celebrities privacies and not gossiping. It looks like it is paying off for the older gentleman who will be playing a maître d' in Aniston's next comedy, a source told E! News.
"He creates this little pocket of safety," Aniston told the New York Times in a 2011 interview about Dimitrov. "A haven where you know you're not going to be sold out by the waiter, a patron, or the valet guy."
"Dimitri is part fantasy, a throwback," actress Anjelica Huston told the New York Times. "He claps his hands in joy at the sight of you. He practically dances you to your table. He makes you feel like he's been waiting for you the better part of the year."
In an interview with LA Confidential, the well-loved maître d' said that he never gets starstrucks and he truly believes that the focus shouldn't be given to the celebrities who often come in there but to the regular clientele.
"I'm not starstruck. The regular client is very important - they are the VIPs," he said. "It's not about the actor; it's about the atmosphere they create for the regular client."
Why do people love Dimitrov so much? He revealed that he likes to make sure every single night is special for every guest that walks through the door.
"Service is never about me, it's about the guest having a good time and creating moments that last forever," Dimitrov told LA Confidential. "Each night is a party of its own, and I'm focusing on these few hours while the guests are here, creating the experience for that particular night."
Besides Aniston, guest of the bar often include Sean Penn, Tom Ford, Anjelica Huston and Johnny Depp as well as tons of movie producers and agency heads.
