Madonna Generously Donates A Pair Of Shoes to Charity
Posted on Tue Oct 13, 2009 07:25 AM PDT
Just one pair? You'd think with all of the millions she's made over the years, she could afford to donate an entire closet full of Louboutins, but I guess not!
Madonna has offered to donate one of her favorite pairs of Christian Dior shoes to a charity supporting Gypsy child education, reports the Associated Press. A pair of gold heels, which are autographed by the material girl, will be sold at the Ovidiu Rom annual ball in late October.
Last August Madonna was booed onstage in Bucharest when she said she believed the discrimination against East Europe’s Gypsies should end, but it looks like she does have some supporters! Leslie Hawke (yup, she's Ethan's mom), president of Ovidiu Rom, told the AP, "Madonna’s very mild comment regarding equality shone a spotlight on a common European attitude toward Gypsies. We’re thrilled to have her donation because she is such an icon of innovation and vigor and ‘can do’ spirit."
We think she can do a little better than this though...
But does Madonna really care about this cause? Or is she just trying to attract attention to herself?
