>>544 I wouldn't be at all surprised. They probably saw it as a win-win. Their talent mentions the cause - good for UNICEF, shows that WME is where it's at for charidee hookups, and shows TH in a philanthropic light. How could it go wrong?

What I want to know is who his US publicity people are. Is that another arm of WME? Or separate? Whoever it is they are not showing themselves to be any better than Lurking Luke. Ok, TH isn't blameless in terms of giving a bad speech, but what is the point of paying for this huge entourage if nobody helps the guy not to make these mistakes?
