Af...Clay Aiken visited Somalia on behalf of UNICEF. After he returned from Somalia, He has been working with UNICEF since 2004, and has not only visited Somalia, but, Uganda, Afghanistan, Banda Aceh (after the tsunami), and Mexico (after devastating floods) as well. He may not be the equivalent of a George Clooney to you, but, you can't dismiss the fact that UNICEF selected him to represent them and have been extremely appreciate of the work he has done on their behalf. <br /><br />I certainly don't think you are a jerk. I just believe that as an educated blogger (sorry, if I haven't heard of your blog prior to now), it would serve you well to do a bit of research on subjects you are blogging about ....especially when you are making a joke about a country that faces such a poor quality of life for it's innocent citizens. <br /><br />If you get a chance, you might want to check out The Celebrity Apprentice. Clay Aiken is a participant this year on behalf of the National Inclusion Project (a charity he founded immediately after competing on American Idol). This charity provides opportunities for children with disabilities (autism, cerebral palsy, etc) to be included in activities with children free from disabilities. It not only enhances the lives of those with disabilities, it changes the lives of children who may only see children with disabilities from afar and whose perception of people with disabilities is forever changed. <br /><br />Take care and have a nice weekend. :)pimms23noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8446351548038522890.post-12255656779180250632012-02-23T23:37:54.359-05:002012-02-23T23:37:54.359-05:00You're a jerk!!!!You're a jerk!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8446351548038522890.post-48300972916218402642012-02-23T22:42:17.383-05:002012-02-23T22:42:17.383-05:00I can't get over the fact that Kim Kardashian ...I can't get over the fact that Kim Kardashian has been to Botswana.
