Out of desperation and lack of nothing to do, I started flipping the channel, got to VH1 where they were doing the fabulous lives of hip hop stars and these people buy 7 cars at the same time. They change their cars every year because they get bored with the color, some guy spent 1 million dollars on his cars in 2005…..yet no one is saying but they criticize the Jolie Pitts because they donate to charities. Isn’t there something terribly wrong here? Are our priorities really THAT messed up? Seriously, what kind of message are they sending? That’s it’s okay to be self-centered? I mean what else would you call buying 7 cars……you’re just one person and can only ride in one car at a certain time…..which means majority of the time those remaining six cars are seating idle, so pray tell what is the point of the extravagance? See, It is nonsense like this that makes me appreciate the JPs…..they could be sitting in their mansions, bragging about their cars and what not (something they sure won’t catch any flack for) yet, they put themselves out there knowing there’s a chance they might be ridiculed and their every move watched. BP alone is worth $100 million., what does he need a measly 4 million for? Why would he…they want to keep the money? And even if they wanted to keep the money, why would they make an announcement that they would be donating it? It’s like a bank robber calling the cops and telling them he’s about to rob a bank. This would fall under “world’s stupidest criminals” won’t it and the last I checked, BP and AJ aren’t stupid. Honestly, this just simple logic and I can’t understand why people keep harping on their charity giving. This is America for goodness sakes, a country that believes in checks and balances. Is it really possible for the JPs to get away with any wrong doing?
Another thing, people expect that when a person pledges a donation, they should just walk to the bedrooms and cut a check. Any accountant will tell you that’s not how it works. The company a friend of mine works for, is just now redeeming pledges they made in late 2004, early 2005. There is a process and only illiterates would think otherwise.
So Radar and the rest of the idiots can carry on with their nonsense but as long as there are Hip-Hop stars spending $1 million in 1 day on 7 cars, I’ll always be grateful to the JPs.
What I find annoying are people that attack those that do a hell of a lot more for humanity than those that sit around , bitch and , pick on those that do. There isn’t one blogger here that criticizes Brad and Angelina that gives as much as these two do. Not even half or less than that. There isn’t one person on the staff of Radar that does anything for anyone. Brad and Angelina are making a difference. While others sit around and make snide comments about them wanting to “save the world’ they actually ARE doing just that. The money they donate goes to help children, women, whole communities. They are saving lives. Not wasting theirs on a blog calling them names and accusing them of not donating out of the goodness of their hearts.
