It is quite common that many celebrities, like movie
stars
 and famous athletes, participate in
activities
 held by international aid organizations. Opinions are divided on how their support affects these
activities
. I believe that famous
people
’s involvement in charitable events can definitely attract more attention and provide more help to the problems. On the one hand, there has been a concern that the importance of charitable
activities
 may be weakened with the presence of many famous
people
.
This
 is because fans of the movie

For example
, in 2015, hundreds of sports

 and Nobel Prize winners who took part in a series of
