Newsweek magazine named Brad Pitt as one of “15 People Who Make America Great”, for using his celebrity power for different causes in Africa. Hollywood celebrity Brad Pitt - who has described fatherhood as “absolutely sublime” - told the magazine that he and Angelina Jolie decided to use the media for bringing the attention to the problems in Africa. The celebrity couple Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie donated the reported US$4 million they received from selling the first pictures of their newborn daughter, Shiloh, to charity.
Also among “15 People Who Make America Great” were named Soledad O’Brien, an anchor on CNN’s “American Morning” and Rick Warren, author of “The Purpose Driven Life.”
It’s the first time I’ve actually felt like we have some degree of control over it. I can’t describe what an immense relief it is for me. [...] Knowing that someone was going to hound us for that first photo – and was going to profit immensely for doing it – I just couldn’t live with it. We were able to turn that around and collect millions for people who are really going to need it.
