People magazine says that Scarlett Johansson is in Rwanda today to hopefully raise awareness of the AIDS epidemic, which is still the leading cause of death of Africa. Actually I just made up. But I bet it's pretty bad. For the record, the leading cause of death in Africa is listed as, "Tiger".
"It was important for me to come here and see the issues we're up against firsthand," Johansson says in a statement. "I came here with an open mind, wanting to listen, understand and learn; I leave with the overwhelming understanding that the small action of making a (RED) choice in your purchases … has an enormous impact on the lives of people in countries like Rwanda."
I would do more stuff like this but I turns out I don’t want to. I'm not here to help. And I don’t appreciate Scarlett making me look bad. I hope one of those stupid kids bites her and gives her some terrfying disease. Then for treatment they’ll have her go ask the villages wise lion for advice and he’ll say something about choices and doing the right thing. Let’s see how wonderful she thinks Africa is then.
