Why isn’t the East Ukraine Humanitarian Crisis a Cause for Hollywood Celebrities? --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Finding a celebrity with a cause is about as easy as finding a plastic surgeon in Los Angeles, but they are thin on the ground for the refugees fleeing the Ukrainian civil war. “Is there a time for keeping a distance A time to turn your eyes away Is there a time for keeping your head down For getting on with your day?” U2, Miss Sarajevo, 1995 ---------------------------------------------- Where’s Bono? George Clooney? Even Madonna? They could be having a communal conclave in a pub near the U2 frontman’s Dublin home, or be chewing on Margarita’s at the ER star’s Lake Como pile, but one thing these celebrity activists are not doing is commenting on a horrific refugee crisis in Europe. Given that they have rarely seen a cause they couldn’t sponsor or a bandwagon they couldn’t leap onto, something is amiss. on.rt/axliyg
