This Is Why I Dislike Some Celebrities

"US pop princess Britney Spears is giving her all to help victims of Hurricane Katrina in the US state of Mississippi -- even one of her bra's, the eBay auction site showed. The 23-year-old former teen queen, famed for her provocative stage outfits, has donated a treasure trove of personal items -- including a two-piece sofa, a bikini and a jewel-encrusted brassiere -- to be auctioned off to help victims."

--Okay, I know it's a stretch for a multi-millionaire to give up some underwear and clothes, but is this for real? Couldn't she have just given a sizeable donation from her personal fortune and issued a press release or something? Personally, I think what she's doing is insulting to the victims of the hurricanes. Wouldn't it have been nice if Ms. Spears had donated furniture to those who actually needed it instead of auctioning her cast-offs to random, anonymous people who clearly can afford to buy it?
