Why are you bashing someone for donating a large sum of money? Is it in fact that you donated none? She only donated a mil what a shitty person she is.

Fact is she could have not donated and by your reasoning she would be a greater person because people would have assumed she did but didn't mention it so as not to get credit for it.

You are probably one of the people that praised SE for giving money too aren't you? Well you should but the fact is they gain more from it then good PR, they are in the affected area and so that money will be used to help there families as well as the nice tax break it will give them at the end of the year. This does not make it any less helpful.

Oh and BTW unless you have an employee walk in with 1mil cash I don't think it would be too easy to make a large donation like that without someone being able to find out where it came from. And like it was mentioned before, why does she need to do this for PR for? She already has a very respectable reputation and lets face it her looks and her acting get her roles not her acts of kindness, unless shes running for a public office that I don't know about. Even then I would vote for her based on the looks thing. The fact you heard about this will get other people to think about donating as well, even if its not to be outdone Japan still wins.

Everyone that donates a significant amount of money claims it for taxes, if for nothing else so they have more money to donate in the future.
Lol nice, you call me a retard then ask me why I am bashing someone.

I wasn't bashing her anyway, just saying it would have shown more class if she had done it anonymously, instead of turning it into a PR move. Charity should be about the victims, and when celebs come out and make it all about them - it can give the unsettling impression of them either trying to steal or share in the spotlight being put on the victims.

If you think i'm a retard for pointing this out, so be it...
