Jewel was sexually harassed by her boss and as a result became homeless.

at the end of the day they (hallie berry and jewl) always had a place to go back to. I’ve had to stay in some kips over the last few years, flat broke living on beans on toast but I knew I still always had my parents place at home in Ireland if it ever got very bad, it’s not real poverty, it just builds character and Hallie Berry always comes across very well , I haven’t a clue who jewl is.

Ya, poverty needs to be understood and for anyone that has gone through it a realisation that they are extremely lucky to get out if it. But one thing that really bugs me is this current trend of celebrities that run around telling the world how they came from nothing and now have everything. It’s giving the press ion especially to younger people that they need to come from a struggling background to make it. There should be absolutely nothing wrong with just a regular person working hard and making it in their area of interest.

@ Tom. I think that’s a really good point, given the ego some actors have. I know quite a few actors and have a bit of trouble believing some of the stories listed. Someone probably got drunk one night and woke up on a park bench and retells the story with a touch of romance added, makes them seem more in touch with the recessionary folk who spend money going to see their movies. I am not attacking them, I go to the cinema and theatre on a regular basis. I just don’t like pr type bullxxxt.

I got lost after Ya and I think

Only 7 mention last time though, so maybe they could call it an update? thedailyedge.thejournal.ie/rags-to-riches-famous-jewel-halle-berry-jim-carrey-charlie-chaplin-daniel-craig-489081-Jun2012/

No. Why should it? I respect a homeless person who gets off the streets and into a home as much as the guy that gets rich. We shouldn’t judge them on how much money they make or look at them differently.
