Apparently she studies bonobos there: https://www.today.com/health/ashley-judd-recalls-catastrophic-leg-accident-congo-t208952

I have a lot of questions about how/why Judd is involved with long-term primate research, but that's the reason.


Yeah, did she REALLY need to check on the bonobos IN PERSON right now? Seems a bit self serving. Now she's using health resources that the people there might need.


Jane Goodall is at home so there’s that.


Yes, I actually work with hundreds of primatologists, and guess what? They are all at home. Their seasons have been canceled, their field work is on hold, their labs are mostly closed. The idea that Ashley Judd, an earnest amateur at best, a dilettante at worst, NEEDED to go to Congo, or even more laughably, that the bobobos NEEDED her, is patently ludicrous.

Amazing, the ego.

Do we even know that she was traveling to the Congo? If she has a partner there, perhaps this is where she resides much of the time and where she decided to ride out the pandemic.

Maybe the bonobos will benefit from the publicity around her leg thing. I hope another celeb can step in for her and finish counting the bonobos.

The pictures...yikes! Her Congolese brothers and sisters don't look very happy at being exploited for her social media.

It sounds like it was grueling for all involved.

I mean, "I'm doing research" sounds way better than "I went along with my boyfriend because I lurve him"

lol. Truth. Though she may help with data collection. What a neat opportunity. We’d probably not know about her being there much if it wasn’t for this. She’ll probably have some chronic pain issues for life now.

If she does have chronic pain I'm sure we will hear all about it.

She worked with NGOs in DC so I’m not surprised she has a fan girl collective on here. She is very much a narcissist with a messiah complex much like the rich trust fund kids who gravitate to those token positions. Nobody was allowed to speak to her when she traveled unless cameras were rolling. A ton of money was spent to fund lavish fundraising galas where she took center stage. The galas barely ever broke even. She’s disingenuous much like the NGO execs she rubs elbows with. They are all the same. Don’t expect a pat on the back for saving the world when you are expensing for your hair and make up team.

Yes on the chronic pain sadly.

This story was 50% WTF, 20% Cripes, 10% white/celebrity privilege, 10% attention whore-bordering on personality disorder and 10% wonder what the other Judds are doing and if they are eyerolling at ol' Ashley being SO Ashley.

White woman too stupid to admit she can’t see in the dark while walking in the jungle.

I wonder who was taking the pictures and if she instructed them to do so.

When I once asked him who was the worst person he ever encountered he did not hesitate to indicate Ashley Judd. Said she was “spoiled, unprofessional, hard headed, selfish, insecure, unreliable and a bit crazy.”

I hope she gets better but I bet there is a back story.


Held:

- she was on a booty-call during a Covid lock-down, and she is generally known as a mean and horrible person.
