And I'm sorry, but I don't know of any charitable organizations that are giving out hair weave and matching T-shirts to go on a TV show and even if they are, it is about PRIORITIES. Speaking of homegirl on American Idol, the first thought in my mind when I saw her was "why didn't y'all use all the money it took you to get there/buy them tshirts to pay the rent??"

I know of several organizations, including certain Delta chapters, that implement look good, feel good style programs that will get low income families or women make-overs for job interviews and such. Several charities also participate in CHristmas gifts and back to school clothing and supplies for low income people. Not to mention, we don't know when or how she got that shirt. Let's assume that she did buy that shirt, while she was "poor." Are you saying that she shouldn't have invested in herself and her gift, by trying to look presentable for AI? That shirt couldn't have been more than $20 to $25. I doubt very seriously it would have covered rent. And apparently her investment in herself, assuming she recently purchased the shirt, paid off. She's going to Hollywood.
