The woman in that short is spot on!


All that was missing from the plea was Gal Godot and co's rendition of Imagine. These f ing people!!

[bitontheslide]

yeah, it's like comic relief, live aid and children in need etc. They all benefit from the exposure while expecting ordinary people to part with their cash

[Redway]

Oh, dear.

[Swan]

Oprah when out there a few weeks back and handed out pillows, shampoo, blankets etc. It was filmed of course.

Yeah, like some of the comments say, Oprah alone could donate $100m and it wouldn't affect her in the slightest.

[rusticgal]

Who do these wealthy celebrities think they are?…do they think they make themselves look good reaching out to humble people who don’t have a pot to piss in to donate money or quit their jobs if it’s affecting their mental health whilst they sit in their million pound homes without a worry in the world….sickening.

They've got to do something after the whole industry went on strike about pay.

Eh though, absolute fannies, the pair of them..


The worlds changing rustic, people are waking up to all this bull****. When you think about it, covid and the lockdown has shown us what the elite are really like...

I seriously and happily wouldnt watch one more film now in order for these control freaks to get their commupence..bloody in a bad mood now.

Twats.

If only the Rock could talk/


That Nice other lady
is right, maybe Oprah should start
with how they have added
their own cash first

Aren't you a crown-thumper Rustic? You have no issue with it when it's William and Kate tottering around Africa then coming back to the UK to belch about how humbling it all was and how the UK public should support their charities, whilst they wave from their gold-laden carriages. It's all gravy then, isn't it? But not for mudblood Hollywood celebs I suppose ... just inbred English toffs .

Never seen them begging the public for donations...The Royals dedicate a lot of their time visiting Countries, Cities and towns and meeting victims of all kinds that then highlight charities to help these people.
Quite a different scenario dont you think?...

They highlight charities and literally run charitable trusts - these trusts operate on the basis of charitable donations from the public. What sort of charity work or work raising awareness is it that you think they're doing that doesn't, ultimately, ask that people open their purses and make a donation? Just because they do it in stately homes wearing tiaras doesn't make it any different. Smoke and mirrors. It is exactly the same thing dressed up in a fancy gown.

Not only that, but people are constantly beating the drum that this is one of the reasons they're valuable and we should keep them... their support of charities. Bowing and pawing at their charitable feet in any Royal thread on TiBB. But like I said... random Hollywood celebs doing the same thing and it's "Yuck, mudbloods, who do they think they are??". Pff.

Quite a different scenario dont you think?...

No.

[bitontheslide]

Harry and Megan are more in line with celeb endorsements of charities. The royals are not so upfront as begging for money, and it's quite a bit different to call 05678900000 now and pledge all your available cash or be branded a heartless bastard

No.

As I said its completely different....two hollywood 'celebs' pleading for money in the comfort of their sprawling mansions compared to Royals who devote their lives to charitable work and representing the country....
There is simply no comparison.

There's no comparison if you're a Royalist and give them "special status" - if you see them for what they are, there's a very obvious comparison.

Smoke and mirrors. You could whittle a carrot into a tiny Statue of David... if you then chop it up and boil it, it's still a bloody carrot.

Totally.They spend their lives putting in the work,with many of their 3,000 a year engagements on behalf of their charities. Carried out, day after day, without the hoohaa. They don’t sit on their asses in their Palaces begging for money. There is simply NO comparison with publicity seeking celebs.

Perhaps if they had gone to Hawaii and paid homage to the victims...tried walking in their steps I would have a better perspective of them.

AND thats the difference....

[Soldier Boy]

Yes the Royals know what it's like to walk in the shoes of the impoverished . You guys are a riot, literally "It's bad if it's anyone except the hyper-privileged hereditary elite". Forget brainwashed, brainscrubbed.

[Niamh.]

Oprah and The Rock donated $10million of their own money as well as trying to raise money, the Rock spent part of his childhood in Hawaii and shares that Polynesian culture/background with him being from Samoa. I think he's got a right to be involved in fund raising for this cause. And it's honestly laughable how people are justifying the Royals charity work but scoff at these two doing something

[LeatherTrumpet]

No surprise its that hag Winfrey

absolute horror show

by your definition everyone who mentions charity is as bad as Oprah and the rock, which is obviously not the case. I get you want to make an argument, but i am no royal fan, and there is a striking difference between the way royals handle charities and the way celebs do it and you are being disingenuous if you don't recognise that

what happened in Hawaii also happened in Greece, Canada this year though


if not for those wildfires, the Hawaiians have a pretty good life as it is a beautiful state, group of islands

and i'm not one to speculate on the cause of those wildfires, but i always firstly think of arson or accidental due to not being too responsible around BBQing

Funny how you don't ever have this opinion on Harry and Meghan when they preach lifestyle to everyone as they sit in their millionaire pad...and Harry tells us to leave our jobs if we are unhappy...

Obviously the Royals dont know what its like to walk in their shoes but they visit and try to understand the devastation and see it with their own eyes...unfortunately your own eyes are not allowing you to see that.
