Hope for Haiti? Not when Jared Leto crashes the party
So, last Friday, like a bajillion celebrities got together to host the Hope for Haiti Now fundraiser.
Leonardo DiCaprio was there:
Oh, and so were Justin Timberlake and Bradley Cooper:
And so was...Jared Leto?
How pissed would you be if you called the fundraiser, hoping to speak with George Clooney or Julia Roberts or Jack Nicholson, and you ended up with Jared Leto?
Jared Leto: "Hey I'm Jared Leto, I'm here to man one of the phones?"
Show Producer: "Oh...hey Jared Leto. Did you get an invitation?"
JL: "Um, yeah. I'm sure I have it here somewhere." (pretends to look for invitation in jacket) "Looks like I left it at home."
SP: "Damn it...alright look: you can sit up on the stage, but don't look at Mr. Clooney."
JL: "Deal."
Plus, did he think it was some sort of Harry Potter-themed fundraiser?

He was making Requime for a Dream when bradly cooper was prancing around his over priced university.
ReplyDeleteI would donate more if I could pick the celebrity I talk to. Just give me 60 seconds with Reese Witherspoon.
ReplyDeleteOh, and are we absolutely certain now that Wyclef's charity is on the up and up? Was he doing a little image rehab?
Jared Leto imdb.com height 5' 9½"....with that hair an even six foot.
ReplyDeleteI'd say I called 30+ times to donate but never got through, for obvious reasons. Eventually I just decided to go online and donate, which was fine, however, if I had gotten through and Jared Leto had picked up, I may have reconsidered my donation
ReplyDeleteDid anyone make him aware he was in a TV studio in Southern California, what's with the jacket, scarf and gloves indoors? Maybe all that wool is causing his hair to stand on end because of static electricity.
ReplyDeleteWas anyone else emotionally scarred by the horrendously uncomfortable conversations they aired bewteen the celebrities and donors?
if it helps to prove your point or answer your question. . . I had to google the guy. . . didn't know who he was.
ReplyDeleteThat Jade fellow is a big 30 seconds to mars fan. Take that for what it's worth.
ReplyDeleteJared leto is a genius and I think it's pretty shitty of you to bash anyone who would help the cause and the efforts in Haiti.
ReplyDeleteHis band 30stm also auctioned off 4 tickets to a show, backstage passes, and a dinner with the guys afterward -- it went for $100,100 which will also be donated to Haiti, so obviously people appreciate him and what he does.
If I would have called in, I would have only wanted to talk to Jared Leto -- with all that's going on in the World - why must people be hateful?
Yikes!
ReplyDeleteI was thinking more "homeless man"- themed, but whatevs.
ReplyDeleteI find it shitty of people to:
ReplyDelete- Believe Jared Leto's artistic ability or cognitive ability could be described as anything above average, much less genius
- Uses acronyms for any band besides 'rhcp'
- Doesn't have the sense, or can't find the time to get there laughs in regarding 'all that's going on in the World.' With all that's going on laughing is all there is.
