Trendy Causes
Do you know what I find reprehensible? Completely and absolutely loathsome? The people who somehow make otherwise noble causes trendy.
As though by coming to the attention of George Clooney, all of a sudden the situation in Darfur is more worthy of notice. It disgusts me. Before it was cool to be outraged by Darfur, it was cool to be outraged by the incarceration and death sentence of Tookie Williams.
There are plenty of good causes out there, to be sure, but does Hollywood have to treat everything like pink legwarmers -- a fashion statement that they will soon rethink?
Blech!
