As we all know, Jade is in India on a "private trip". Jade claims that, "This was not a publicity stunt. Nobody knew I was coming out here". However, Jade called a press conference at her luxury base in
New Delhi to announce that she was donating £25,000 from her Big Brother paycheck to underprivelaged children as she "don't want the money. It's dirty money because it caused a lot of pain to a lot of people". But don't worry! It's not to better her image, "I am not giving the money to improve my image. Course not. Thought never crossed our minds." See?
However, while Jade is busy writing checks from her hotel room in New Delhi, Scarlett Johansson didn't go to the Oscars, and went to visit the children at an Oxfam-funded school in the northern Indian state of Uttar Pradesh. Scarlett was quite taken by a little girl who woke up at 3am every day to do her chores before she walked to school, "She was an amazing, bright young girl, full of ambition...Her self-pride and drive to succeed was an obvious outcome from her schooling." Before returning to Hollywood, Scarlett also travelled to Sri Lanka where the charity is helping to rebuild life following the 2004 tsunami. Maybe Jade should take a few pointers from Scarlett...
