And I hate the fact that everyone pretends like she's the new Mother Teresa and seems to think that she invented charity or something. Other people have dedicated their entire lives to helping the less fortunate and actually get their hands dirty in the process but don't get that much praise for their efforts. The whole "but..but she donates one third of her income to charity" thing also annoys me to no end, If I made a tens of millions of dollars for doing terrible movies , I would donate half of what I made not just one third and ALOT of rich people/celebrities donate anonymously, too.
I like the fact that she's adopting but Zahara is so close in age to Shiloh and now we hear she's planning to adopt another child. It seems rather obssesive to me.I also don't understand why she doesn't adopt children with disabilites since she has the means to take care of them or American children either. I'm not American, so I don't know how accurate the things I hear about the foster care system in America are but the impression I got was that alot of kids are desperate to be adopted there too.
I've tried to like her but I just can't , I'm part of that minority too
