Katy Perry Mistakenly Tweets That 100 UNICEF Workers Died On MH17 Malaysian Airlines Fligh

KATY PERRY @katyperry So INCREDIBLY sad to hear that there were 100 volunters for UNICEF on flight #MN17 Sending our prayers to all of the families affected :(

UNCIEF have assured the public that no employees or volunteers for the world organisation were onboard the MH17, Malaysian Airlines flight that was shot down over Ukraine last week after Katy Perry, an ambassador for the company, tweeted that 100 volunteers had died in the accident.

** snip **

With 54 million followers, more than any other Twitter user, Perry's tweet obviously caused confusion and for many, probably panic. It's unclear where she even got the information from and seems pretty unbelievable that she'd even write something like that before even verifying it's content.

Perhaps stars, especially those who have millions of followers and therefore widespread influence, should stay out of politics and current affairs altogether.

I’m betting she saw it on facebook, which is full of hoax information all the time.

Examples:

Pot cures cancer, AMA concealing the ‘facts’.
Monsanto is killing people with GMOs.
Fracing is ruining our water supplies.

Says a lot about the state of mind of Americans, when she has 54 million follwers.

she’s an airhead
stungun and mace - Kharmann Ghia plates say “Lost in Space”
she’s an airhead
thousands in trust - cusp Aquarius - get serious
she’s an airhead
tinted contacts don’t change the fact that black is black
she’s an airhead
and while I’m impressed with the length of those legs
she’s not an intellectual giant....

It wasn't a mistake. She tweeted that on purpose.

Ignorance is not an accident.

As long as libs express “compassion” the facts don’t matter.

Probably a lot of overlap with her followers and people who voted for Obama-twice.

Yep I remember trick or treat for UNICEF. It stands for United Nations International Children’s Emergency Fund.

She’s an Obama campaign bundler, so no surprise there.

Even if she was guilty, she’s been granted a lifetime BJ Clinton post-POTUS pardon.
