Africa or Bust

jz.jpg
I am wondering if celebs really care about Africa or they just think it is a trendy way to become involved with the "real" world. We all know that U2 front man, Bono, is serious about the troubled continent, but the rest seem to be jumping on the good press bandwagon.

First Angelina, now Madonna has adopted a child from Africa, Jay-Z just had a street named after him in Nigeria and Titanic cutie Leo is touring orphanages there as well.

What is Central America the red headed step child of Third World Nations? Haven’t these celebrities seen the late night commercials of doe-eyed kids with mismatched sneakers in Ecuador?

In 10 years it will be reversed.

"Adopt a washed up actor now!"

"They committed career suicide, but now you can save them for only pennies a day!"

I'm glad you recognize that my boyfriend Bono is serious about this cause.
The others, you are right about them jumping on the band wagon.
