showbiz 411 did an analysis on Lady Gaga's charities
tax records from 2012 Chevy charity called the Born This Way Foundation and
she wants to raise awareness about bullying
which of course is a very important cause considering all the teenagers that
have committed suicide
because of bullying however at this analysis of the tax our report
is a little depressing because what they found was that
even though they reported 2.1 million dollars
in a net assets they only donated about 5
thousand-dollar of Jesus Christ you actual grants
I'm so people are wondering where the hell is the money going to be raised
that much money where's it going now I should know before we get into details
that it's unclear as to where they raise the money from
there's speculation that the majority of the money actually came from Lady Gaga
herself
okay look at now with that said let me kinda break it down for you guys do you
see
where the specific funds are going now they spent about three hundred thousand
dollars in strategic consulting
UK 62,000
836 dollars on stage productions now let me %uh be more specific about that
they have a certain events in order to raise awareness right they have kids
come in they try to celebrate
anyone who's a little different whose unique and that's good I'm glad that
they're spending money on that so I don't think that's a big deal
up fifty thousand dollars on social media its
I got social media was free know you mean consultants appear at how to tweet
I mean I mean I guess you have to pay people
probably bye week but here's the thing: but salary
salaries are also I'm specified here they spent seventy two thousand dollars
on salaries
so that doesn't play a role in the social media up
fund anyway I'll let me go on 406,000 552 dollars on legal fees
cheeses with the lawyers man one hundred fifty thousand dollars on philanthropic
consulting it's their separate from the strategic insight
kulka raise the help all right there's more though there's more
up sixty thousand dollars on research that's all apparently different from
philanthropic consulting and strategic consulting
up fifty eight thousand seven hundred sixty dollars on public city fees I
think that's a red flag right there
seventy eight thousand dollars on travel and seventy two thousand dollars on
salary
now here's the biggest red flag for me 880,000 661 dollars on
other we don't know what other is where did you spend that money and how to help
raise awareness about bullying
and then finally of course the five thousand dollars I grants organizations
are
ships that's just so every is
it's sad it's comical okay it so
I know that it take to it takes a certain amount of money
to be able to raise more money and to get awareness et cetera
so I'm with you and I'm who they want to the stage production
may it is cost associated with that and these are fancy people on their use a
traveling fancies the travel costs are going to be higher
me she's like Lady Gaga is going to take coach because she's going to want to
these events
I and I don't know how breaks out but I'm okay with all that great
but me when you only get five thousand your actual cause
I mean you're spending people side and I don't know how much of it came from
regular people who contributed to it we don't know how much came from Lady Gaga
up
but even if all we came from Lady Gaga you're basically robbing her blog when
you exactly so that's a one in these problems in the story again we don't
know where the money came from if it's from Lady Gaga herself while men
this is what you want to donate to and she's
creating jobs I guess she's getting people paid croats open thread like it a
lot I'm sure that in the event that they have really does make a difference for
some the
teenagers that actually go to the events but look when you're spending a hundred
fifty thousand dollars on
philanthropic consulting but only five thousand dollars on grants to
individuals and organizations
you're getting hoodwinked man
