[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The event was an annual fundraiser for One805 - an organization that provides counselling and mental health services to first responders. It was started after the Woolsey fires in 2018. Costner provides his field and hosts the fundraiser, which this year was a music festival. It is attended by hundreds of people. Tickets are $350 or a table is $12000 with all proceeds going to One805. Not sure why that is something to criticize. [/quote] Sure, it’s a good cause. But it’s a PR event for Costner and celebs. And it’s interesting who showed up and how they all damaged reputations. They’re thirsty. [/quote] This is the fifth or sixth year he has hosted it. It wasn't something he drummed up for his own divorce PR. Putting on a massive fundraiser like that is expensive and if he didn't host it, One805 wouldn't be able to run it. It kind of shows people are just about hating when they decide that hosting an annual funraiser for first responders in a community that had a massive wildfire is a sign of him being this horrible jerk just trying to redeem his image. That just shows a massive lack of critical thinking. He would have hosted the exact same event even if he had still been married. It was planned long before the divorce. People have lost perspective when they hate everything about someone - without discriminating if it is worth hating or not. Hating for the sake of hating is a pretty immature approach to life. [/quote] We get it. You luv Kevin. Like I said, it’s a good cause. Let’s give him a big hand for reaching into his very deep pockets to host it. Hooray! I just think it’s interesting *who* showed up. There’s an article on DM this morning. It was the top story earlier. Oprah, Ellen, and Harry and Meghan…all of whom currently have damaged reputations. It’s a safe space they can show up for some easy PR. It’s interesting that better celebs didn’t show up. It’s plausible that Hollywood realizes Costner is damaged at the moment so they are steering clear. That’s all. Geez. [/quote] Your take is silly. You are claiming celebs who supported this worthy cause are trying to repair their image? One805 is probably wishing all celebs were in image repair mode.[/quote] The point is who didn’t show up. Apparently this was the best Costner could produce…to see him get an award at his home… And someone put all this out there, making it a top story on People, TMZ, DM, etc. [/quote] You don't think this charity event should not have been publicized? You're crazy if you don't think the charity did not benefit from the publicity. The charity would have its own PR firm to get the message out to garner more support and donations. It's a worthy cause that now more people are aware of and may donate. It would be a failure and dereliction of the charity's PR and communication section if they did not shop this event to news and information outlets. Grow up. [/quote]
