Hollywood elitist Alyssa Milano drew plenty of scorn on Thursday when she took to social media to beg for money for her son’s baseball team.
Keep in mind, of course, that the left-wing actress/activist has an estimated net worth of $10 million.
“Baseball is life and our [teammates] are our brothers. Baseball gives us purpose and we are driven to be our very best. In order to compete, we must raise funds,” said the GoFundMe campaign she linked to.
“We hope you will make a donation to keep our team competitive. Your donation will go to travel costs, uniforms, and dues for families. We also might use your donations for pins or novelty items to make our tournaments memorable experiences beyond the field,” the description added.
In sharing the crowdfunding appeal, Milano tweeted: “My son’s baseball team is raising money for their Cooperstown trip. Any amount would be so greatly appreciated. You can read more about the team and make a donation here.”

Interestingly, the GoFundMe account Milano linked to states that it was organized by Alyssa Bugliari on behalf of David Bugliari — the actress is married to Bugliari, who is a Hollywood talent agent.
Seemingly knowing what lay in store, Milano restricted who could reply to the post.
The campaign has raised $7,600 as of this writing, but it would prove to be a lightning rod for criticism directed at the narcissistic actress.
Here’s a quick sampling of some of the responses to the story, as seen on X:
Alyssa Milano is the Tammy Faye Baker of Eva Longorias.

Just a reminder: Alyssa Milano and her husband are both multi-millionaires. They could pay for the entire trip for the whole team without batting an eye! https://t.co/H3O5JOCkNC pic.twitter.com/UDraRuWuN4

You have a net worth of $10,000,000. Donate to your kid’s baseball team [yourself]. This is not an issue of public importance.

The Democrats are trying to put my fiancé in prison for exercising his 1A rights, destroyed both of our careers with their pals in the media and we’re now on the verge of bankruptcy and losing everything, including a roof over our heads.

Now, here’s something interesting: with a net worth of $10,000,000, @Alyssa_Milano is asking us to help fund her kids baseball team’s trip to Cooperstown?

Bitch! You’re worth MILLIONS!
The nerve you have to even ask ppl to help fund your son’s trip – especially in this economy where ppl are struggling to get by?
Alyssa Milano is a selfish commie who would NEVER help any of us, especially if you support Trump!
Fuck her! https://t.co/e2jCpNpAO6
