Britney Spears was so moved by watching how the children in Africa suffered from malaria on the American Idol’s Idol Gives Back charity event, that she donated $25,000 to the cause.
An insider for Life & Style magazine said, “She watched the show and cried for, like, two hours over the children in Africa with malaria. She didn’t know much about the disease, so she Googled it. She was horrified to realise kids were dying from mosquito bites. So she went online and donated after getting (her father) Jamie’s permission”.
It’s great to see that even when Britney only has an allowance of $1,500 per week, she managed to convince her dad to grant her that much fundraising money.
