Who’s the most charitable celeb?
It’s Oprah, naturally, atop the list of the 30 most generous celebrities. The list was compiled by The Giving Back Fund and will show up in this Sunday’s Parade.
Oprah, 54, gave away $50.2 million last year. Right behind her were Herb Alpert, $13 million; Barbra Streisand, $11 million; Paul Newman, $10 million; and Mel Gibson, $9.9 million.
What about Brad and Angelina? They’re ranked No. 6, with donations of $8.4 million in 2007. Among their interests is Pitt’s charity Make It Right, which is helping to rebuild New Orleans.
Athletes Lance Armstrong, Michael Jordan and hockey player Eric Lindros tied for seventh place, with donations of $5 million each last year.
