Brad and Angie Really Making a Difference
Perusing MSNBC.com this morning (because its got way more information about the world than any of my local papers), I fell across this article. It was a survey done to see if celebrity appearances actually encourages normal people like you and me to care about their chairty. Basically, will we give money or donate our time due to celebrities making appearances? And do the celebrities really care about the causes that they are promoting?
49% of the people polled saw Oprah Winfrey as the leader of causes. Up next was Bono, with 32% of the vote. Right behind the famous musician was Angelina Jolie, who garnered 31% of the vote, and Brad followed up his leading lady with 23% of the vote, with his famous friend, George Clooney, right behind him with 22% of the vote.
I find this survey to be extremely interesting, and it makes me very proud of Angelina and Brad! Look at it this way: Angie has been very active in fundraising and in helping children for a very long time. Brad was quieter about his charities until recently, and he’s almost even with Angelina now. Put the two together and you’ve got an unstoppable celebrity force who can accomplish miracles for those who need it most.
Just imagine what would happen if Oprah, Bono, Angie, Brad, and George all threw their backing behind one specific project. Mountains could be moved easily.
