Ludacris’ kindness to a woman struggling to pay for her groceries shows he’s a gentleman in the streets.

Therra Jaramillo told the story of how Luda saved her on Facebook.

In her post, she said she's still grappling with the loss her husband to brain cancer and has struggled to keep her household afloat. The freelance writer wrote she found herself in a bind when a client was late with a payment. Then, her water heater stopped working, eating up funds in her checking account. Left without money to get groceries, she had little to feed herself, her disabled brother and her pets.

"I was making rice and vegetables for me and the dogs," Jaramillo told WXIA.

A friend gave her a gift card to Whole Foods, and she went to the market.

When she got up to the register, her items got mixed in with those of the customer in front of her. She attempted to divide them while taking some off the belt, having realized she'd gone over the amount on the card. As she was doing this, Jaramillo wrote the other person stopped her.

“He stopped me, 'I said I got this,' he said. 'All of this,' he told me. All of my groceries,” she said in the Facebook post.

“I stared wide-eyed at this handsome young African American man, this stranger, as if he'd just dropped through the ceiling like a black James Bond, like a Batman, like the Black Panther. Then I started to cry.”

When she asked him his name, he replied “Chris.”

Jaramillo wrote the man chatted with her for a while, before leaving after making sure she was okay. That's when the cashier spoke up.

"And she goes, 'You know that's a famous rapper, you know, that's Ludacris.' And I went, 'What! What!' and I screamed."

Other people in line reportedly told her the same.

Her Facebook post about the encounter has gone viral and been shared over 11,000 times.

Luda’s actions made Jaramillo want to help others.

"This event taught me something I thought I already knew. It taught me the true power of being kind to strangers. He's probably done this hundreds of time. But I couldn't forget it," Jaramillo told CBS News.
