People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.
RULES:
- Mark NSFW content.
- No doxxing people.
- Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
- No international politcs
- Be excellent to each other.
- Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. You can replace the addres of .x.com to xcancel.com in the address. https://web.archive.org/save is an option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.
- If a tweet (or similar) makes a statement of fact, either mark it as "satire" in the body or provide the original source link backing up the statement (see rule 6)

I don't see a problem doing both. If you believe in a charity and can afford to give, you should. And you certainly can then encourage others to follow suit. This applies to celebrities too.
But this meme is describing celebrities asking others to give for a cause they aren't supporting themselves, despite having much more money to spare. They probably view it more as just another job, but if they are doing more than just performing and are actively soliciting donations then that is hypocrisy.
