Zach Galifianakis Paid Old Homeless Woman’s Rent for Years & Spent Time with Her as She Had No Family

1. Humble Beginnings in LA Zach Galifianakis, now a Hollywood comedy icon, started small in LA, performing in burger joint gigs before hitting fame with “The Hangover” franchise. He navigated odd jobs to pursue his dream.

2. Unlikely Friendship with Mimi In 1994, Galifianakis met Marie “Mimi” Haist, volunteering in a laundromat. Living there for two decades, she survived off tips. Despite her challenging life, they formed a lasting bond.

“I really appreciate Zach and Renée for [everything they’ve done]. I have a place to live now and my own bed.”

3. Galifianakis’ Generosity Upon learning of Haist’s living situation, Galifianakis secured and paid for her apartment. Actress Renée Zellwegger further aided by furnishing it. Haist, grateful for the support, acknowledged their impact.

4. Red Carpet Moments As Galifianakis rose to fame, he brought Haist to Hollywood events, enjoying the red carpet together. Despite his discomfort with such events, he found joy seeing Haist in that atmosphere.

“I like to see her in that atmosphere. Somehow she fits in in a very strange way.”

5. “Queen Mimi” Legacy In 2016, a documentary, “Queen Mimi,” captured Haist’s unique story. Despite gaining recognition, Haist stayed grounded, continuing her work at the laundromat until her passing in late 2021. Her memory lives on through the documentary.
