Current mood:  drunk Category: Parties and Nightlife
The person putting the party on, I worked with last season getting HG's there, gave her my contact and connection at The Paris Hotel, along with other contacts in order to help promote the event she was putting on.
Anyhow, the "Charity Event" she is putting on this season, I was involved with from the start... Even the fact of it being called a "Charity" event was my doing. And it was because I was sickened by what I had found out about passed charities I had done things for, where the smallest amount possible, by law, was actually going to help people and the rest was going into huge salaries for the people running them.
One of the reasons I bailed on this event was because you can call anything a charity event, as long as something goes to charity, but there is no % standard. So, you can put on an event where you pull in 100K, then claim all expenses, salaries and any other over head blah, blah, blah..... and the amount after all costs, loopholes and assholes.... donate $500 to let's say.... The Charity for people who should be battered, solely because they are idiots foundation.... And you can tag it a charity, because the very minimum is donated(minus any costs etc...) to a charity that is again making sure that most goes to salaries and the minimum of the events minimum goes to the people you think it is all going to..... did you follow all that?
Well you can put on a million dollar Charity event, and when it is all said and done... it could end up that the real people it is supposed to go to end up getting $100.
Ask Nikki what % is going to these 5 charities, if they are real charities at all. I don't know, I didn't get as far as to look into them. When we got to that point is when she tried to rush everything passed me and I had told her I wanted to pick ONE charity that people would know, instead... never heard of any of them and why so many? When she says she is not making money on the event anyhow... And you can get sponsorships, which is just money from big companies so they can advertize their product at the event, and say that is not part of the receipts or ticket sales for the event and put that money in your pocket without giving a dime of those thousands of dollars to any charity at all.
She left a couple passed HG's stranded in Vegas. I understand why she wasn't happy with them, but fucking with their tickets and... well, it wasn't right how it all panned out.
She used my connection in Vegas and still owes them close to 10K which is why she would continually push the location she is doing it at this year on me, and when I would mention we needed to speak to them at Paris, she again would try to rush things by me...
Finally I had had enough and found out how much the charities were getting, found out she owed money from last year still and how she used me and my other contacts and just told her to go choke on a cock, that I was done and out.....
So, that is why I am not there, for everyone asking.
But if you want to shoot the shit or have a beer, I am at The Paris Hotel till late Sunday and will be at The Hard Rock Hotel Monday & Tues. Look for me at the $5 slots or the Roulette tables.
Tues, I am a judge for the Miss Hawaiian Tropic shin dig as well.
And lastly... I have had some of you telling me that Krista from BB2 has been talking shit and spreading lies about me, which is very unfortunate and she will end up looking like an idiot, but I haven't seen it directly and at this point and don't want to respond until I do see what she wrote myself.
But I can say that I didn't pocket any money from a guitar auctioned, because it was never sold and I am still in possession of it. Besides the fact that it is mine and can do anything I like with it. I ended up with it after the Rock Against Diabetes Charity ended up stiffing almost everyone who performed or participated in the event.
I think she has some balls talking about me period without even contacting me about this. I can also say that I had asked her for information on the charity she works with a number of times and she never provided anything.
Everyone that signed that guitar, signed it because I asked them to and told them that it would be donated.
And it will be. Along with the pots and pans I bought from CBS that I used to bang over Dustin's head that morning.
I have done a lot for a few different charities with good intent. The more involved I got, the more bullshit I saw. So, before getting involved with any more of them, I want to see things in writing.... period. And if that is too much to ask, well then they are more than likely one that I don't want to associate myself with anyhow. I have learned that even though you choose something you believe in to back... the money you are helping them raise (the lion's share of it anyhow) to help people with a disease or find a cure for a disease... that you need to see for yourself that the money is going where you think, where you are told it is going and not helping the founder live in Beverly Hills with a Rolls in the garage and shit like that. So many charities might be "legal" and by law can call themselves a charity, but that does not mean they are not corrupt....
So, fuck you Krista.
