Kelly Osbourne recently took to Instagram to express her frustration with celebrities she believes are using the Los Angeles wildfires for publicity. In a now-deleted video, Osbourne criticized celebrities for turning the tragedy into a ‘photo op’ and questioned their motives for helping. While she did not name specific celebrities, some speculate that her comments were aimed at Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, who recently visited an evacuation zone to offer assistance. Justine Bateman also criticized the couple for what she perceived as an insensitive ‘photo op’, dubbing them ‘disaster tourists’. However, footage from Fox 11 Los Angeles showed Harry and Markle serving food anonymously and expressing genuine gratitude towards first responders. The city’s mayor, Victor Gordo, confirmed that the couple visited impacted families and first responders to personally thank them for their efforts. It seems that while some may view these celebrity visits as opportunistic, others believe that Harry and Meghan’s actions were sincere and intended to support those affected by the wildfires. Ultimately, the debate highlights the complex relationship between celebrities, charity work, and public perception.
