Celebrity Engagement Rings Could Feed the Children of the World
We all know that celebrities love to spend money. And, there is no tradition more extravagant than celebrity engagement rings. Not only are these engagement rings worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, but the average celeb receives two to three of these rings on average…no one marries only once anymore, right?
The visual guide demonstrates how many starving children in Sub-Saharan Africa could be fed if the celebs donated the amount of money that was spent on their engagement rings to fight hunger.
Beyonce’s $5 million rock from Jay-Z would feed 100,000 children for a year ALONE!
“It is estimated that 25,000 people die every day from hunger and related causes. Of those going without food, 230 million live in Sub-Saharan Africa. 25% of these people are children.”
There. That is my do-gooding for the day. Take that Angelina Jolie.
