Representatives of Hollywood studios shared their disappointment about this.

"After many celebrities have made huge amounts earned from movies, television and printed advertising, to the Japan Support Fund, I am surprised that we did not hear anything about the organization of Telemarafon about this," said one of the producers.

"Where is Julia Roberts? Where is George Clooney? Where is Jamie Fox? Where is Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt? ", - continues another boss.

Compared to a terrorist attack 9/11, tsunami in Thailand and South Asia in 2004, as well as an earthquake in Haiti and the tragedy of Darfur, this catastrophe of the star almost bypassed.

"They receive millions from alcohol and cigarettes commercials that are broadcast only in Japan and never in the United States. Plus, Japan is one of the main consumers of American cinema. Stars love ride there and promote their films. And now they have to do everything possible to help people in this terrible time, "says the source that wished to remain unknown. "I want to work with these people, and I don't want to give up them."

Katy Perry plans to sacrifice money from the sale of her branded luminous wands that fans bang during her concerts. She wrote on Twitter: "If you go to the page of my store, then buy a glowing rod. All income will go to #japanredcross (Red Cross), and when I will sing today "Firework", let's raise them in honor of Japan. I will do the same thing on other shows, so be prepared. "
