No make-up selfies ‘not helpful’?
Over the weekend, women around the world have been posting images of themselves on social media without make-up to support raising money and awareness for breast cancer research. The selfies have been shared using the hashtag #nomakeupselfie and the campaign so far has raised over $3 million. Even celebrities like Gwyneth Paltrow and Megan Gale have joined in the good cause. However, despite the good intentions of the campaign, it has come under fire for focusing too much on taking selfies and too little on raising awareness or funds. Controversial Big Brother contestant, Tim Dormer, has created his own media storm, posting a selfie on Instagram last night of his backside and later tweeted ‘#nomakeupselfie craze? about as helpful as posting a pic of your butt. Have a laugh guys… I’ve heard smiling can help cure cancer.’
