Public Service? Celebs Worth $11.5B Bash Trump, Right with PSAs


The public service announcements will be in the public interest. But when wealthy Hollywood celebrities build them, it's about advancing their left-wing agenda — everything from targeting President Donald Trump to supporting an anti-Christian anti-conservative hate group.

The new PSA features celebrities urging the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) to donate. On August 26, it aired on CBS, starring 7 celebrities from sports, movies, and television. This video was made by the 19th PSA celebrity in the past 14 months.

Although the videos differ in subject matter, they share one thing in common — they show wealthy stars telling us how to live. The stars of the 19 PSAs are worth a $11.5 billion aggregate, or approximately the entire Nebraska state budget — with a population of 1.9 million.

According to Celeb Net Worth, only the 7 on the SPLC ad are worth a whopping $526,000,000. But they want to tell viewers where they can make a donation.

That's not the only celebrity PSA celebrating the agenda of the left, which by the way contains both hate and prejudice against the conservative movement. Between 22 June 2016 and 26 August 2017, there were 19 PSAs published by 14 charitable organizations (and 5 random celebrity movements). Those featured about 273 celebrities, or just a shit ton of famous people in the words of actress Julianne Moore. The networth of that better-than-the-rest-of-us throng of stars is around $11.487.150,000. That's quite a hefty public awareness / charity bill.

Or is it really charity? Of the 19 recordings, 7 were released in an effort to stop Donald Trump's presidential election or an effort to get him impeached. This included the viral video Save the Day by Joss Whedon starring 28 celebrities, as well as Unite For America by Martin Sheen. They were also using a PSA (7 of them!) to warn the public not to vote for or help Trump, or as Don Cheadle called him, a racist, violent coward who could permanently destroy our society's fabric.

Although one election video had the decency to actually urge Americans to vote, the other election videos specifically targeted Trump irrespective of who they voted for. There was also a video titled Women CanHinder Trump with Amber Tamblyn (because of course). In reality, Singer Beyonce made a video specifically endorsing and campaigning for Hillary Clinton alongside her boyfriend, rapper Jay-Z, and several other music stars.



Not to mention the wild, flabbergasted, furious emotions of the video Art Not War addressed to Dear Congressmen. And nothing shouts class like the TV-star of Rachel Bloom studded musical Holy Sh*t You Have to Vote PSA, in which she contrasted Trump's vote to elect a tyrant to power in Germany after the First World War. Overall, 104 celebrities dedicated their time and resources to make the PSAs movement pro-Hillary.

Lena Dunham's Lenny Letter PSA was created on its own in support of Planned Parenthood and Planned Parenthood. Similar PSAs did not urging people to adopt minority children. And the # EmbraceAmbition from ToryBurch was meant to mark International Women's Day. Obviously, in March 2017 Tina Fey and Alec Baldwin called for funding from the ACLU.

On 10 August 2017, Al Gore released a PSA for his global warming push. They called it # BeInconvenient. The overall net worth for the celebrities who have pledged their allegiance to the cause of climate change? 1.75 Billion Dollars. According to Celebrity Net Worth, al Gore alone is worth $300 million.

Pursuant to a PSA's dictionary definition: an announcement made for the public's benefit. Since watching 273 celebrities participating in the past year in PSAs, how do all those leaders of the 1 percent have the public's benefit in mind? (Hint: singing about how much you dislike orange speaking STD on either hand won't encourage charitable sentiments.) 



These PSAs don't even describe the organizations that they support. In the SPLC PSA scenario, viewers may learn more about how bad the SPLC actually is. The SPLC is the agency which is fighting "hate groups." The infamous hate map of the company led domestic terrorist Floyd Lee Corkins to the Family Research Council, where he tried to shoot employees. The group has also attacked mainstream groups such as ACT for America and the Alliance Protecting Democracy. This comes on the heels of multi-million dollar contributions Apple, JP Morgan and the Clooneys have already received from the SPLC.

But is celebrity PSAs going to tell you that? No. With serious piano in the background as Julianne Moore urges people to put an end to this nightmare, these PSAs are doing nothing but divisive politics.

We can not say, to quote Martin Sheen, that both sides are similarly unfavorable. Yes.-Yeah. One side is simply the one per cent of the population crying on the television to try to get what they want, practically at times. Or to quote Holy Shit You have Got to Vote. Faces that fade into other faces told you so.

A more logical reason for the sheer number of celebrities who put time and energy into PSAs may be that they use their money and power to manipulate the votes of the people.

Where are all the stars who are donating or raising money for real charities? These PSAs were not all bad. The best out of the series was the British War Boy, where stars like Jude Law were thinking about giving war-torn Syria to starving refugees. (These, needless to say, were not American celebrities.)

Top 10 Richest Chefs in the World 2020

Once upon a time, fame and fortune were the sole property of actors, musicians and sport stars, but in recent years, the money has spread to the kitchen as well. As the world's culinary experts consolidate their conventional TV slots and extend their brands on and beyond Instagram, it's fair to say the top cooks see their bank balances skyrocketing. But who managed to capture top spot? A lot has changed in the last year after all, with some familiar faces missing from our 2019 list. Using reports from Celeb Net Worth , TheRichest and Spear's, we looked at the data from 2020 to chart the changes; the outcome is the world's 10 richest chefs. 10.

One Simple Yet VERY Risky Gamble In 2006 Enabled Floyd Mayweather To Make Hundreds Of Millions Of Dollars Today

Floyd Mayweather has been the world's highest paying athlete for at least the last five years each year. Alone in 2014 he earned about $105 million. That was $25 million more than the world's second-most-paid athlete, Cristiano Ronaldo. And perhaps what's most remarkable is that without a single substantial endorsement deal, Floyd won $105 million. Of the $80 million Ronaldo received as the second highest paying athlete in the world, 40 per cent came from endorsements. But what is probably most remarkable about Floyd's rise to absolute financial supremacy in the world of sports is the fact that none of it would ever have happened in 2006 without a very easy, but very risky gamble. Floyd was portrayed by Bob Arum's promotional company Top Rank Boxing between 1996 and 2006. In boxing you are simply an employee when you are signed with a promoter. A set amount of money is being offered for you to appear at a fight. The promoter puts up all the money and takes all th...

Richest African American Actors 2012 – Top 10 List

African Americans Making Big Bucks in Hollywood How African American actors took a prominent place in Hollywood mainstream movies over the last decade is quite obvious. African American actors are now casting quality films with meaty-roles that have proven to draw hordes of fans to the box office. The 50s and 60s are gone when movie pictures were limited to 'only whites.' Some of the highest paying actors doing smash hit movies are African Americans today. Talk about films such as Training Day and Monster's Ball which won both Denzel Washington and Halle Berry Oscars in 2002. How about Will Smith 's Men in Black and Training Day; Pulp Fiction by Samuel L. Jackson, the Million Dollar Baby by Morgan Freeman, and the Dreamgirls by Oscar-winning Jennifer Hudson — all top grossing black films. And the list can go on and on from actors in movies, to top producers and directors of films. It's not hard to understand why these African American actors are r...
