Atlanta rapper surprises ‘Annie’ moviegoers with free show

Tenisha Bell planned on treating relatives to a Tuesday afternoon showing of 'Annie.'

But when the Atlanta mother arrived at Movies ATL in Camp Creek with her son, godmother and three others in tow, Bell learned she didn’t have to pull out her wallet.

Atlanta rapper Young Jeezy not only paid for the entire theater to see the movie, he treated moviegoers to free popcorn and drinks.

“Jeezy was even passing out the popcorn himself,” Bell told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution. “What a wonderful way to pay it forward this holiday season.”
