How does money help - that would be the last thing on their minds.

Good on her

Of course money isn't on their minds but it doesn't mean donating money is a bad thing and it shouldn't happen. It's a lovely thing she is doing. Money helps with the funerals etc.The victims were her fans and she's so heartbroken about it so she wants to help as much as she can.

I read Piers Morgan was critising her for flying home and not visiting victims, what a ****

well done her

It's got to have a big effect on her, and what she does in the future. I was thinking that before when it was discussed on the forum.

I remember reading about David Cassidy, who was a big teen idol in the 70s, and how he basically gave up music because of a concert in the UK where there was a big crush that resulted in a lot of injuries and a girl dying. He didn't attend that funeral because it would just be a media circus. It's probably the same in this situation.

Funerals tend to cost money and it's not cheap, what she is doing is a good thing. Why people are coming for her is beyond me.

[Mystic Mock]

She's very brave going back after what happened.

I am guessing money also goes to the people in critical condition and ones who had life threatening injuries?

Its a fantastic cause and you can say what you like about the girl but she has a heart of gold
