From The Daily News:

The generous star struck up such a close bond with the 87-year-old laundry worker that he decided to get her a cozy apartment and pay her rent when he found out she was homeless two years ago.

Haist told the Daily News she will be Galifianakis's date for the Monday premiere of the new "Hangover" film in Los Angeles.

"I'm looking forward to it, I like the excitement of it," said Haist, who's gone to premieres with Galifianakis before.

"If he's in town, he takes me. Otherwise he lets me take a friend. I dress up nice and a friend helps me with my makeup. It's fun, not something I've ever dreamed I'd experience. The limo takes me home afterwards," said Haist.
