Blind Item #3 - Kindness
This A- list rapper/part-time actor who is an Academy Award winner/nominee quietly divided $1M among four separate children's hospitals he visited over the past year. Each of them had lost the sponsorship of a large oil company who had been cutting back on charitable giving.

ReplyDeleteCommon. Eminem hasn't acted in eons.
ReplyDeleteI would say Eminem except for the A- rating, but that may not matter. Although he has not acted in the lead in years, Marshall does make a few cameo's. Sounds like something he would do also.
ReplyDeleteCommon is known to be generous with his time and money.
ReplyDeleteCommon. He won an Academy award for Selma
ReplyDeleteA rapper doing things non related to crimes or drugs? And this is even a kindness.
ReplyDeleteMaybe because I'm European, but oil companies sponsoring kids sounds weird as hell to me, and I acknowledge that it is probably normal in the USA.
I am going to go with Ludacris. He has a charity, Grammys and an Oscar.
ReplyDelete@Kermit ... Appreciate your acknowledging that you're European and otherwise unfamiliar with the charitable practices of we vapid Americans. I cannot, however, understand your query as to whether the actions of the person in question constitutes as a "Kindness".
ReplyDeleteEither way, I assure you the Children's Hospitals that have lost their funding from an oil company would welcome the generosity of anyone who is kind enough to get involved out of the goodness of their heart, vs. -say- because they broke the planet, like BP, who is forced to pay serious money for their negligence.
