I figured the example of Gaga organizing a nationwide music special filmed remotely, while using the special as a PR moment for billionaires and corporations to get praise for opening their wallet was enough. It was a genius move that Gaga doesn't get nearly enough credit, likely because she doesn't talk a lot about her philanthropic work. Asking whether she's contributing to the fundraiser is a pretty insincere question, and most even on ATRL would agree. Her track record for charity and activism is miles above MOST of her peers, so if you really want to go there I've got a whole stack of receipts I can share!

I won't stop you from calling out anyone, I really don't give a **** about any of these celebrities - Gaga included. She deserves to be called out for asking the middle class for money instead of opening her own full ass wallet, and she doesn't need you to lick her ass in the process. 1 1 2 7

You sure cared about Billie enough to use as fodder over... *checks notes* TTPD streams in THAT other thread 7 minutes ago, Loca said: she doesn't need you to lick her ass in the process And neither did Billie need you to embarrass yourself in that other thread and obsess over what constitutes as popularity on a music chart But I guess you figured it out in the end! Congratulations on figuring out celebrities don't need strangers to defend them over charts and sales! Only took a whole thread!

lgaga1fan Posted Thursday at 10:05 PM Posted Thursday at 10:05 PM Confused as to why it's taking place at two venues when they could have easily just upgraded and gone to the SOFI stadium for a show like this

And nobody cares about made up standards about philanthropy based on delusions to satisfy Loca's peace of mind We don't know what Gaga has been doing behind the scenes but there's evidence in the past she's VERY involved in her philanthropy. She's just quiet about it. 3 1 1

She's just quiet about it Well, no, the real issue is that LA is in flames and Gaga/Billie/etc are asking for people who have nowhere near their income to pay for it without opening their own wallet. But you can keep on quoting silly charts related posts if thats really what you find concerning, I guess. You will just sound demented doing so. 7

Dear Reader Posted Thursday at 10:22 PM Posted Thursday at 10:22 PM Wonder what some people that do not care about celebrities are doing on a Pop Culture forum... Anyway... OT: Good for them for raising money. Gaga and Billie always show up when charity is needed 5 1

It's a cute fundraiser and I'm sure all artists participating are also donating a sizeable amount themselve. Like this should be common sense 8 2

ShouldersSideways Posted Thursday at 11:13 PM Posted Thursday at 11:13 PM 2 hours ago, byzantium said: But even in the US disasters happen all the time. There were those hurricanes that hit Florida last fall. The one that hit Puerto Rico in 2018 was exceptionally bad. The winter storms of 2021 were the deadliest disaster of the 2020s so far, and then there were the fires in Maui last year. People should of course be helping in all of these circumstances, but it's interesting that all these celebrities get involved for the disaster that hit Malibu. Beyond the fact this is an unprecedented disaster that struck far more than just Malibu, most of these celebrities also live in LA. This is their community; their loved ones, employees, acquaintances, children's friends, etc all live there. Famous or nonfamous alike, people are far likelier to get involved in something that directly impacts their community. You can't be everything to everyone all over the world, and it's understandable your own sphere is your priority. 10 2
