It shows that she thought it was the right thing to do and realized that the charities should be put front and center.
It appears to me that Kristi’s decision to donate 1 minute for every vote she gets is a recently hatched plan to save-face in light of the negative press the bobble-head promotion has been getting. It’s also a ploy to get more votes. Do I have a problem with that? No I don’t. I’m sure the other bobble-head participants are whoring themselves too to get votes.
Wouldn’t it be great if all the contestants showed their commitment to their chosen charity if they all donated their time and money without any strings attached. Competition is fun, but these charities really need help, not gimmicks which kind of help.
