Help donate for Chinese Earthquake relief (all set!)


Note: Our goal has been met so there is no need to comment. Thanks so much for your support.


We will give $10 per comment on this post, up to $1000, to Chinese Earthquake Relief through GlobalGiving.com.

This is in response to the massive outcry against Sharon Stone’s outrageous comment that the devastating earthquake in China, in which 67,000 people are confirmed dead and thousands more missing, was somehow karma against their government. Other commenters, who are very much in the minority, have expressed similar ignorant sentiments that are in no way a reflection of the feelings of the American people or of this website.

Rather than give any more credence to that nonsense, we want to help out any way we can. Please help us donate to Chinese disaster relief by commenting on this post.

You can also make your own donation at GlobalGiving.com.

Update: We are donating to the “Half the Sky Children’s Relief Fund” through GlobalGiving.com. The Half The Sky Children’s Relief Fund website has photos and a blog chronicling of their efforts. They recently visited a primary school that collapsed in which 241 out of 500 children perished.

Update 2: Goal Met! Thanks everyone for commenting! We have donated $1,000, which again will go to Half The Sky Children’s Relief Fund through Global Giving. You can thank Sharon Stone for being such a tool and everyone who defended her or somehow tried to justify her statement.

  2. The Chinese people didn’t deserve this. Their messed up government isn’t the fault of most of them, including the thousands dead and suffering.

    We’re all human, and this is an incredible gesture on Celebitchy’s behalf.

    Here’s my $10.

    2) This is my comment. I wish nothing but good things for those poor people. No one should have to go through these things.

  7. I really hope the get the help they need. Again, celebitchy, NO ONE in the previous blog was insensitive to the victims, is because we (I am sure is the same for Scott F and others) sympathize for them that we criticized the Chinese government for not doing much more to help these innocent people. They deserve much more help and care then they are getting now.

    However, Well done for the effort CB. Every little helps.

  8. Let me say, and this comment counts toward the 100, that when people argue here about things that are so upsetting and real, i.e. tens of thousands of people dying, and act like there is any other side to this than people dying and suffering and losing family members, I cannot sit and concentrate on the gossip or post photos, or talk about such bullshit entertainment. :cry:
    By doing this I can move on to the gossip and know that at least we’re doing something.

  22. God forbid anyone who would call this karma (Sharon Stone) should ever lose their child or children in such a disaster — would it be a karma then, or a tradgedy? My thoughts and prayers are with those suffering — as a mother of two, I can’t begin to imagine…..

  23. If Sharon Stone is a believer in Karma, maybe she should be concerned about her own fate based on all of the negative energy her irresponsible comment has created.

    Thanks Celebitchy for your generosity.

  25. AOL has a phone conversation between Nick Hogan and Hulk Hogan, recorded while Nick is in jail, where they essentially say John Grazianos negative attitude is the reason that John is in a permanent vegetative state. You may think the reason he is in a coma is because Nick Hogan had a few beers and raced his car down the street and smashed into a telephone poll, but no, it was because John sometimes yelled at people.

  46. Thank you for doing this. I was sickened and heartbroken by some of the ignorant responses on the other thread. There is an epidemic of selfishness and hatred right now here in America– and it really makes my day to see you standing firm against it.

    I spent two months travelling through mainland China a few years ago, and the Chinese and Tibetan people are wonderful– kind, generous, and funny, with a few bad apples, just like people here in the States. They don’t deserve this tragedy any more than you or I do.

  47. I’ll tell a quick story about someone I met in Chengdu (100 km from the epicentre) just a few weeks ago. His name was Tembo (that may be spelled wrong) and he was a local tour guide. He grew up in Tibet where his father was a farmer. He had studied in the United States and knew five languages. He was really energetic and is the only person I’ve ever met who has exactly the same mannerisms as my brother. I will never know if he survived the quake or not but he is just one of the people who may be helped with donations. Thanks CB!

  56. This just makes me so sad. Two NPR correspondents were about 60 mi away from the epicenter reporting on unrelated subjects at the time of the quake, so they were able to deliver first hand news about the devastation. When the lady started talking about the children’s bodies being laid out for ID by the parents, I started crying in my car just imagining that despair. My heart goes out to these people. Sharon Stone….well, some people should never speak.

I completely disagree with the Chinese government in almost every area, but that doesn’t mean these aren’t real people suffering real tragedies who need real help. And we can’t let political, religious or other differences come into the way of helping fellow human beings.

  85. What Sharon Stone said in her interview was absolutely appalling. She had absolutely no right to say what she did, and instead of sounding like she was intune with what is happening in China right now, she sounded completely ignorant. The earthquake was not about politics. It seemed like she hardly had a grasp of what Karma means. Whatever the Chinese Government are doing to the Tibetans does not reflect the Chinese people. Sharon Stone was completely out of line.

    And what you guys are doing here is amazing! Hope this helps.

  86. Great idea, great job, I feel good commenting here and helping you contribute. STUF, Sharon Stone, you know nothing about the world, and you have no heart, soul or compassion if you can’t overlook the troubles in a country’s government in order to say and do kind and needed things to the people suffering this incredible tragedy.

  91. Sharon Stone should really take back and apologize for what she had said. It was very ignorant and if she didn’t want to show sympathy for the 60,000 innocent lives lost, she doesn’t have to, but she should -NOT- have said it was ‘karma’. It wasn’t, it was an earthquake, no one wants it to happen.

    Thank you so much for doing this, god bless all the orphans and everyone who died in the earthquake.
