Well, that didn't take long.
Celebrities have once again proved that no amount of tragedy or carnage can humble them. No amount of collective human loss will bring them down to our level.
Exhibit A: America's one-time sweetheart, Mandy Moore.
As LA wildfires continue raging, the 40-year-old actress is begging for money on Instagram.
Yes, the star of 'This Is Us', a ratings juggernaut that reportedly earned her $23 million over the show's entire six-season run, wants average Americans to donate to her own family members.
Check out Moore's galling, tone-deaf, frankly obscene Instagram post, promoting a GoFundMe for her adult in-laws, one of whom is a 'touring musician' with a baby on the way.
Maybe he should get a real job. Just a thought.
The target fundraising goal for these two privileged, hipster Angelenos, by the way: $60,000.
Please. That's the equivalent of change in Moore's surely custom-made couch cushions.
No matter. This is what she wrote in that gibberish post, defending herself against critics who say she has plenty of money to help her family out:
'People questioning whether we're helping out our own family or attributing some arbitrary amount of money google [sic] says someone has is NOT helpful or empathetic.'
Of course not, Mandy. That's the point.
Why would, or could, we empathize with you? Empathy is the result of having experienced the exact same set of circumstances.
Most of us aren't sitting on $23 million.
America made Mandy Moore, a mediocre talent at best, a multimillionaire. She never has to work another day in her life. She and her family can live like royalty off her substantial passive income.

Megyn’s podcast is pretty darn good, IMHO.
I have no idea who she is.
Please stop. Grace is needed here. She posted, or reposted a Go Fund Me for her brother or brother in law or something.
I just feel like it’s very important we not be mean to these people. I don’t care if they are rich, or libs, or whatever.
People have lost EVERYTHING, because the DEMS have FAILED THEM.
We need to be compassionate, being mean spirited now is not only a sin, it will be unhelpful.
I noticed Hollywood pretty much ignored the people who lost everything in North Carolina after Helene.
I figure that they figured they were hillbilly Trump voters so let them rot.
I feel sad for the Cali people but I wish they would have shown the same compassion for the less fortunate people they ignored. They want help now so they need to get in line behind the people who have been suffering for months and years.
Yes she lived a lavish lifestyle.
But to think she blew 23m is very very near sighted bordering on ignorant. Hardly a rich Hollywood A lister.
Wealthy people (smart ones unlike a 20-something NBA star or crack head like Hunter Biden, don't "blow" wealth like that. They invest it in non-liquid assets at those levels.
Has she approached De Niro or Benghazi Clinton for a million or so?
Well, Maureen, empathy is not “having gone through the exact same thing...” it is being able to put yourself in another’s shoes and understand their circumstances and feelings even if you have not experienced the same thing. Whatever.
No less than 48 hours earlier the elite of LA mocked God at the Golden Globes freakshow.
Imagine all of the faces, chests and asses that are melting right now.
Screw Hollywood.
If they are paying a mortgage the banks require home insurance.
Who is this person????
This woman has the money to help out her own family. I googled her net worth and it’s 14 million.
She can take that gofundme and shove it up her twat, if there is room.
I have no idea who she is.
“Meghan Markle and Prince Harry were here offering a lot of hugs…” News/Media/Tabloids
On that last one, play the video with the closed captioning on. Note to the reporter: If you did that accidentally on purpose: God bless you.
Get a load...
...Pasadena Mayor, Victor Gordo, described the couple's efforts in eight-words, saying Harry, 40, and Meghan, 43, "really buoyed the spirits of the first responders"...
Did anyone bother to ask any actual first responders if they felt "buoyed" by the Harkles' Uvalde 2.0...?
The Laird of the Manor on X, includes pics of what the grief grifters got up to, the last two paragraphs, but the entire tweet is worth the read....
...🔥This charade by Harry and Meghan serves as a stark reminder of how far removed they are from the very essence of service they vehemently claim to uphold. Their actions in Altadena are not just a misstep but a profound misjudgement, again revealing a couple more concerned with their image than with the genuine alleviation of human suffering. They have, through this display, diminished not only their own credibility but also the sanctity of true charitable work.
🔥Harry, Meghan… you disgust me.

For her “in-laws”.
Right.
