Re: Geldof - Stick your Live 8 up your *!##+^ '~£

*lmao*

some funny comments but i agree the celebs shud lead by example

i remember when 9/11 happened nad they were doin the whole telethon thing and then came the celeb amounts. xyz a-list celeb has personally donated $100,000 xyz singer has donated $50,000

i was thinkin wtf?! is that all?! i mean the a-listers such as leonardo di caprio earn 200 times that per movie!!

i mean alot more respect wud b due to them if one a-lister stood up and said ok my next movie's paycheck is goin all to the blah blah fund for 9/11 or end world poverty. then ur talkin $20m+ and not some half hearted appearence on tv for 20 mins just to make sure u are seen to b caring.

at least with bob geldolf i can see yeah ok he's takin out the trouble to organise all this or his team is.. but he's behind it and he does do quite alot of active work in africa

naturally wiht the nature of africa and its countries its impossible to say 100% will go to the ppl. corruption is rife. and the tv progs need to pay for the bottles of water for the celebs in their five star hotels whilst durin the day htey go standing and shedding a tear next to a kid thats dying...

robbie williams was listed as pop's highest earner or sommet. i mean come on. if u gave £50m of that cash how much wud u honestly have to adjust ur life?

look at all the cash wacko jacko's blown and learn a lesson.

ah well...
