NOT established artists that are supposed to be at the top of the industry. Come to think of it, I think early in his career Keith did release videos and new singles about the same time.

I like the LRN live version better too. IMO you've just perfectly summed up the difference between Keith's arena shows versus his prior headlining tours that were in smaller venues. There's a frantic quality to the arena shows that this new video captures. Run here, mug for the camera, run there, mug for the fans.

Someone wrote: well why don't they just donate their own money quietly instead.<BR/><BR/>Hello ??? Those two are probably more generous in their charitable donations than any other members of the young Hollywood establishment. They just donated $ 1 million to a kids charity and both gave<BR/>( I believe) $ 5 million away last year EACH ( at least).<BR/>RIght on, whoever said Nicole puts the money into real estate and her own portfolio.<BR/>Have these people hear of tithing ???<BR/><BR/>I say, go for it, milk the media and get those<BR/>funds over to charities in needs by any means necessary and good for them if they get PR about it; the charities also earn a soundbite.<BR/><BR/>In my book BP/AJ are resourceful. Plus of course, AJ does the hands on work.<BR/>I would kill to be a multimillionaire just for the chance to be a philanthropist.<BR/><BR/> RE: hands-on work;I do think it was kind of nutty for AJ to don a flak jacket while preggo and put herself ( and babes) in the line of fire but she is unabashedly balls to the wall so it's in keeping with her character.<BR/> As is NK putting on her serious glasses( after her lasik surgery I recall) and spouting off about violence towards women while doing f-all else.<BR/><BR/>I'd like to see the kind of competition actresses reserve for red carpet glamor dressing diverted into competitiveness about how much money they can give away to charities.. even if they are doing it to look good or for PR purposes.woriedmonkeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13985779889205035635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2615839992616992011.post-28442147829474339022008-07-14T14:09:00.000-04:002008-07-14T14:09:00.000-04:00Getting back to the subject for a minute.

I think it's fine to sell the kids pictures as long as they donate the money. I mean seriously they don't need it. It's better to do it and get it over with. This way nobody is fighting to get the first pic and having the paps all over them. It's not a novelty. Plus Brad and Angelina have donated so much and have done so much in the past that your not surprised they are going to donate the money. They seem like good, smart people.<BR/><BR/>Although I think this is what Nicole wants. She wants them to fight to get the pic. It keeps her in the spotlight longer and keeps people wanting to know what the kid looks like. For those who don't think she's this way. Slap yourself in the face back to reality. This is Nicole. She loves people to talk about her and she loves the attention.

Kidman now simply releasing the pic...(although probably not with a special note for the media outlets to optionally "donate" to a charity... as with the wedding pic... can you say "lackluster amount")... is a pretty mundane result. Kidman is just too much of a "jannie" come lately to hang with the industry heavyweights... but if it buys her a few points with her fansies...she no doubt will keep plugging away for another $100k film role, just so she can be on a movie set...any movie set.maclenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04955283353584596594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2615839992616992011.post-78210240559099723252008-07-14T13:43:00.000-04:002008-07-14T13:43:00.000-04:00"Maybe she volunteers at a women's shelter on her ..."Maybe she volunteers at a women's shelter on her own time.

Tommy did it with Suri..by the time we saw those first pictures, people were speculating about if there was a baby...if the baby was healthy...etc. etc. <BR/><BR/>I don't think for NK it's about $$...she doesn't want to sell the pictures because she'll generate much more attention by holding back, and keeping Sunday Rose's unveiling until the media is "hot" for a picture. Yes, I think this IS about attention. <BR/><BR/>As far as AJ using her charities to get more media attention...that might be true. But she DOES do actual hands on work. NK uses her charitable causes for exactly the same purpose but does little if any hands on work. Her biggest contrubution so far is signing her name to a anti-violence toward women and children petition . <BR/><BR/>I can honestly say that I have never met anyone who is pro-violence toward women and chilren...even abusers talk the talk. The petition is sort of a joke in my opinion. Has NK visited a women's shelter? Has she worked with abused kids? I am not aware of that activity...but she signed a petition...whooptedoo! <BR/><BR/>I may be wrong ... maybe she volunteers at a women's shelter on her own time. Maybe she works with abused children locally in Nashville.

If fame had nothing to do with it, they would sit home quitely with their newborn and donate their own money if they feel that strongly about the charity. Why do they have to bring the children into it? It's just another PR angle in the game of fame these days, and those that play it are not worthy of our time or money. <BR/><BR/>There was a time in Hollywood when the children of the stars were never seen and were protected. Now the stars are the biggest pimps of their own kids, if not to further their own career then to set the stage for the kid and the life being planned out for them in tabloid hell.notachancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10119374355376493530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2615839992616992011.post-3903599591224072782008-07-14T11:07:00.000-04:002008-07-14T11:07:00.000-04:00so where did all the money go when young Shilo had...so where did all the money go when young Shilo had her pictures sold?<BR/>I believe it did go to the charities that AJ and Pitt designated. Of course there is ego involved in this whole thing- they are celebrities after all but unlike Kidman, AJ has been about her non show biz work for a very long time. Her movies do okay but she isn't a person who can open a movie. She is a media sensation much like Kidman was when she was married to Tom Cruise. Unlike Kidman, AJ has used that fame to bring attention to others in need.<BR/>All Kidman did was wear high end clothes and make more money for herself at contract time.Tarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12876191532149224666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2615839992616992011.post-25402125957330324162008-07-14T10:15:00.000-04:002008-07-14T10:15:00.000-04:00Money being donated to charity for selling your ba...Money being donated to charity for selling your babies pictures to a tabloid is the excuse used to get YOURSELF, the famous person, in the news in a big way. It's the biggest case of bullsh*t ever and I can't believe how the media panders to this crap. All the other media outlets, the ones not paying for the pics, give unblievable attention/coverage to these unfortunate events and none of them emphasize the charitable nature, but rather the sum of money involved and hype the parents as being something other than the rest of us "mere mortals". <BR/><BR/>If you can't see that it's not about charity, you need to take those rose colored glasses off and give 'em a good clean.<BR/><BR/>As usual, UM will spin it to be hating on NK, but Keith & Nicole are doing the right thing and I know that is just a (Sunday Rose) thorn in their side.notachancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10119374355376493530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2615839992616992011.post-77093793699571984412008-07-14T09:57:00.000-04:002008-07-14T09:57:00.000-04:00I think Kidman blew an opportunity not selling the...I think Kidman blew an opportunity not selling the baby pictures.
