Is Rosie O'Donnell the usual out-of-touch celebrity?

Many celebrities and other rich folks don't seem to be in touch with the real world as the rest of us know it--kinda' like Marie Antoinette suggesting that starving peasants eat cake. They seem woefully self-absorbed and narcissistic.

Rosie O'Donnell says she hopes to film again in Detroit after doing her new movie for Lifetime. I applaud her desire to do another movie there. That's the kind of thing that can really help the economy there.

Then she told the reporter that she "has been so moved by Detroit's plight that she bought a Buick Enclave..."

'Scuse me?

She spent $40,000 or so on a luxury car to sympathize with Motor City residents? Wouldn't that money have been better spent with a donation to a food pantry or homeless shelter? She could even have given $10,000 to each of 4 deserving people on the verge of losing their homes.

Rosie O'Donnell is not a stupid person. She couldn't have amassed the money and power she has if she were.

So, what is your opinion?
