Lady GaGa's Charity Raised $2.6M - Spent $5000 On Charity - $1.5M On "Expenses"

I recently started some blinds about celebrities and their charities and it is because of charities like the one founded by Lady GaGa. Showbiz 411 has all the documents from her charity from the year 2012 and they show that it is basically a money making scheme for GaGa's associates. Despite raising $2.6M in 2012 they only gave away $5000 to charity. $1.5M was spent on publicity and lawyers and consultants. Yeah, there are lots of people making a whole lot of money but none of the people that the charity was intended to help. Who is it supposed to help anyway? At least if you are going to do this kind of thing try and give some kind of respectable amount to charity or a cause. $5000 is more then she spends on dinner or one outfit and she could only give that much despite the $2.6M raised? Thanks Mark.
