A new report that just came out alleges that Lady Gaga’s charity, the Born This Way Foundation, donated just $5,000 of it’s reported $2.1 million. Man, even Lamar Odom is shaking his head at that.
Here’s where the $2.1 million went according to Showbiz 411 via Gawker…
$300,000 in strategic consulting
$62,836 on stage productions
$50,000 on social media
$50,000 on event coordination
$406,552 on legal
$150,000 on philanthropic consulting
$60,000 on research
$58,768 on publicity fees
$78,000 on travel
$72,000 on salaries
$808,661 on “other”
$5,000 on grants to organizations or individuals
Wow, $808,661 on “other.” I need to hire whoever does her foundation’s books to do mine this year. I have a lot of “other.”
Hard to believe that such a worthwhile foundation created by such an role model of a woman would donate less to those in need than it probably costs to come up with one of her insane, attention-grabbing ideas…like riding a fake horse to the American Music Awards, for example.
Oh wait, no it isn’t.
