Comments on: Angelina & Brad endorse ban on Zimbabwean blood diamonds http://www.celebitchy.com/57584/angelina_brad_endorse_ban_on_zimbabwean_blood_diamonds/ Stylish celebrity escapism Tue, 14 Feb 2012 12:59:28 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: lennie http://www.celebitchy.com/57584/angelina_brad_endorse_ban_on_zimbabwean_blood_diamonds/#comment-374531 lennie Wed, 01 Jul 2009 22:45:55 +0000 http://www.celebitchy.com/?p=57584#comment-374531 I can understand that some people don't feel the need, or don't have the opportunity to help others due to various reasons, it's okay. What I don't get is that why some people not only don't do anything to make the world a better place, but also constantly bash others who are trying? Give me a break, at least at their level Brad and Angelina are doing something; donating money, supporting causes that matters to them... Is it enough? Did they change the world? I don't think so, but at least they are TRYING. I bet the main reason they keep doing this is the reward they get from thank yous of those who need their help. Do you guys think that your "shut ups" and hate words would prevent refugees from Pakistan to be grateful from the million dollar they get from Brad and Angie, or to those who fight against Blood diamonds from Zimbabwe? The answer is no. It's just a pity that some of us are very good at badmouthing others undertakings, hiding behind their computers rather than facing the truth and being more compassionate. It's a shame. I can understand that some people don’t feel the need, or don’t have the opportunity to help others due to various reasons, it’s okay.

Canada and Australia especially have a lot of diamonds. Geez people get off their back, most of my diamonds are Australian diamonds. What I consider of equal importance is if your jewels and especially the gold and silver your rings are made out of are mined in a manner that is environmentally friendly. Just a plain gold band minded using environmentally friendly methods can sell for over $8000. Diamonds don’t only come from poor countries with bad human rights records.

Calm down people. When Peta calls for a ban on animal testing plenty of celebs support the ban and Peta incudes their names in their press release.Did people freak out when Brad contributed money to the anti Prop 8 bill. Hayden P. name was included in a list of celebs calling for a ban on whale fishing. So celebs aren't allowed to support causes?GMAFB. Btw there is no statement about them supportng the ban at The J-P foundation website and no press release Obviously this Human Rights group called for a ban And Brad and Angie said of course they support a ban.

And it has been going for a long time. The fact is, diamonds are plentiful and the price people (i expect mostly men)are expected to pay for them is one of the biggest scams going.

How did a couple of actors (both of whom have dubious morality anyway) end up as the moral spokespeople for our society? You know the headline I'd REALLY like to see? "Angelina and Brad endorse ban on buying third world babies". Tedious preachy hypocrites.

You aren't able to rate a person or a character by their actions or qualifications. You are unable to differentiate between politics and show biz. You are focussed on looks only, I feel sorry for you. I am glad there are also intelligent comments on these two greedy fakes. @Great woman, June 26th, 10:49: “I’m sure most the women typing negatives about this couple get rubbed the wrong way wearing size 12 too.

Get over yourselves, Brange. Instead of issuing a statement why dont they actually get their hands dirty and put their celebrity power to use. We "little people" would love to have their resources to make this world a better place. I think their humanitarian efforts are great. Third world countries do need our help but I think they have forgotten about the people suffering in our country. Our citizens who are fighting tooth and nail to make it through the month. If they wanna change the world how about starting in their own back yard. America has plenty of issues that could use some awareness. yeah seriously, who are they to issue a ban on diamonds from ONE country when this issue is sooo much bigger than that and them?

This is ridiculous. Has our political system tanked so badly that we don't have elected politicians to do the job they were elected to do? No wonder the US are on the decline. Why don't these shallow actors do THEIR jobs? They are ACTORS, not politicians. And their 'charity' is obviously very suspicious. I suppose they are making money with charity. Where are the millions they or she promised to donate? Issue a ban on these two fakes!
