Kim Kardashian donated $50,000 to the Trevor Project, reports US Weekly.
Whoa, Mama Kris, don’t pull all your hair out just yet—it wasn’t her money!
The Runaway Bride raised the money for the LGBT anti-suicide hotline at a September 2011 fundraiser with Cantor Fitzgerald in New York City, where she was put to work on the trading floor.
Says Kim:
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
The firm lost more than 600 employees in the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Center in 2001 and on the 10th anniversary of the attacks, they donated all revenues from their trades to charities around the world,” she wrote on her blog at the time. “I was honored to take part!
So Kim didn’t actually donate of her own hard-earned cash—and she was probably paid to be at the event. Really she just stood around, smiled and collected a paycheck while someone else made the donation?
Just hold your nose and take the check, Trevor Project, it’s going to a good cause.

I don’t understand! She has so much money! If it were me it’d be so easy to give millions to charities.

Eh I don’t think she’s horrible. I’m not gonna pretend I don’t like her or watch her show just because other people think that.

If she REALLY gave a damn, she’d donate anonymously, but then what good would that do her?

@shle896: if she REALLY gave a damn, she would actually give HER OWN MONEY to a charity, rather than try and foist her sponsorship of a fundraiser as “her” donation.
SHE didn’t give a penny to Trevor Project.
The headline glosses over that very simple fact.
The kardashian whore just handed over OTHER peoples’ money to the charity.

Kim Kardashian is an epic nitwit and largely responsible for elevating the vicious twitter rumor last night than Cher died. Anyone with a brain would have checked reputable sources and determined Cher is alive and well and living in Malibu. But not Kim. As soon as her 12 million twitter followers read how upset she was by Cher’s death, the damned hoax went viral. Even the worthless CNN picked it up and reported it as fact.

“PROBABLY paid”. I don’t like her. At all. BUT, I will give the benefit of the doubt that Queerty, AGAIN, doesn’t know shit & reports it as fact. So, maybe she donated her presence after all (who would’ve paid?) I don’t know. Bleh.
