absolutely not!!!!!!!!I appreciate them. Most of them that is. There are certain celebs that shouldn’t speak out given their public image and behavior is reprehensible, however, I can’t tell you how much I have been driven to learn about because I caught a PSA about something and went online to read more. I read and watch alot on my own but when I am flipping through and see Brad Pitt and Gorge CLooney in a cool black and white psa for the ONE org to end poverty. I stop to watch it…since then I have done research on the subject and have gotten involved. And can name 50 more people who have too. Live Earth and all the surrounding media has reawakened my awareness to take more care in my dailylife to turn off lights, use less chemicals, recycle better…etc. The Celebs are what make us stop to listen even if we care about these things already..they are the only ones who can pull off doing a global awareness campaign like Live Earth..The cost and pollution for it pale in comparison to shaping awareness of todays youth culture , everyone else and the future generations.People get so upset when other people are in the position to do something and take it out on them..I am over that line of thinking. They are lucky and fortunate and know it so they spend way more time becuase of it giving back than most of us do. As long as we are careful who we get our info from..maybe listening to Robert Kennedy jr who has dedicated his life to environmental issues rather than Sheryl Crowe telling us to only use one sheet of toilet paper than I think we need them desperately to affect change.
