Jennifer Lopez, Alex Rodriguez Slammed For ‘Cheap’ Houston Floods Donation
Jennifer Lopez and boyfriend Alex Rodriguez opened their hearts and their purse strings//
for the victims of Hurricane Harvey after it ripped through Houston and left horrific//
flooding in the surrounding area, but not everyone is happy with their efforts.//
The couple confirmed in an Instagram video last week that they would be donating $25,000 each//
to relief efforts in the affected areas, but some claimed that just wasn’t//
enough from the multi-millionaires. “Seeing these pictures of children//
[and] all of the footage, it’s just devastating and we just want to do our part to help,”//
Jennifer said in a video with Alex posted to her Instagram account that announced their donation,//
confirming that she and her boyfriend would be giving $25,000 each to make//
combined donation of $50,000. “It’s our opportunity to come together as one to help out all the//
great families in distress down in Houston. We’re praying for you. God bless all of you,”//
the former basketball star then added. Jennifer then confirmed in the video//
which has since gone viral with more than 11 million views – that she would be//
putting donation information in the caption so her fans could donate too.//
“We’re going to put some information below, so that everyone can do their part.//
At the end of the day, we’re all in this together,” Jennifer said of how she//
and her man were standing with Texas. “We have to pull together when others are in//
need in this country and everywhere in the world.” JLo then encouraged her followers to//
“do as much as you can” to help Texas and the affected areas and added that she//
and Alex were also going to “do as much as we can through this whole process.”//
But some fans didn’t believe the Shade of Blue actress and the athlete were doing all they//
could financially to help Hurricane Harvey victims. Their Houston donation received mixed//
reactions online, as some claimed that they could afford to donate a lot more money to the//
cause to aid those affected by the rising flood waters that engulfed parts of Texas and Louisiana.//
Notably, Forbes lists JLo’s net worth at $38 million, while Bankrate.com claims A-Rod//
is worth an estimated whopping $300 million. Some slammed the couple on Twitter,//
even calling them “cheap” for donating $25,000. “25K donated really? [You] made more than//
that just with copper cheap a** b***h!” Twitter user @AlonJoe21 hit back at the stars.//
“JLo & A-Rod only donated peanuts $50k,” @Yolanda73464435 added of the couple’s donation//
to Hurricane Harvey relief efforts in Houston and the surrounding area. “Shame on them!//
Stop being cheap JLo & A-Rod cough up some more money.”Fans also called out Lopez//
and Rodriguez for their floods pledge in the video’s comments. “Unbelievable $25,000 you two//
are serious about this?” @arcotopick wrote in the comments of Lopez’s video announcing her//
and A-Rod’s Houston efforts. “YOU TWO worth millions! Rich people’s are really funny.”//
Notably, a number of other stars have given significantly more to Hurricane Harvey relief efforts.//
Both Sandra Bullock and Leonardo DiCaprio are thought to have given $1 million to Houston//
and the surrounding area to combat and provide aid amid the floods. Miley Cyrus//
and the Kardashians have both given $500,000. “Kudos Sandra Bullock for $1 Million to Texas,”//
@tracycopy added of Sandra’s more sizable donation to the cause. “Really @JLo & @AROD $25k//
a piece donated?! You spend more than that on a purse.”//
But Jennifer and Alex weren’t the only stars to receive backlash.
