You know what? You are correct. If I ever donate money to charity, NOBODY will ever hear about it. I believe that something given out of charity should be private and you shouldn't make light of it in order to gain the adulation of others, especially when you're a celebrity.

I believe that there is no truly selfless act, as even acts of extreme charity. The feeling you get from doing the act can be more beneficial to you than the recipient. Whenever possible, anonymity increases the feeling of benevolence.

This isn't the case with most people, especially celebrities. Not to say that I'm better, I just have a different view on things. Many disagree with me.
