Bruce Springsteen does his own holiday shopping

Legendary singer Bruce Springsteen was recently spotted checking out some last-minute gifts at the J. Crew store in the Grove mall in Shrewsbury, New Jersey.

Most shoppers were nice enough to stand back and let Springsteen buy his socks and sweaters and other things on Christmas Eve, reports pagesix.com.

"He wasn't being mobbed as much as you would think. People were being pretty respectful," said a source.

Also spotted at the mall was singer Charlie Puth.
