Pharrell Asked Fans To Donate … They Asked Him To STFU!

It seemed harmless. Pharrell Williams, like a slew of others, encouraged his fans to donate to Frontline Responders and help hospitals get the equipment and supplies they need.

Hospitals are running low on masks, gowns, and other critical items. We need to replenish their supplies.

Take action, make a donation, and ask others to join the fight. We’re in this together. Let’s protect the responders on the frontlines.https://t.co/lfpBRWxUiw pic.twitter.com/hWWTwJhorY

However, his fans read the call to action as an insensitive, tone deaf demand and ish hit the fan.

Imagine asking the people who most likely are being laid off right now, to donate, while you could just get your fellow celebs to raise money…🥴 pic.twitter.com/TOSkDcSgXe

Aren’t you worth like 150 million or something

I— I know you’re not asking me for my $2 when your net worth is literally $150 million. You can make a bigger difference by donating just the money you stole from Kelis. Foh pic.twitter.com/2cc9SpGoy5

You literally live in a community college spending Kelis Milkshake royalty checks on Uber eats and you’re asking US TO DONATE !?!? pic.twitter.com/RrriCfDTLL

In his defense, he probably already donated a hefty sum. We hope…
