Her role in "The Iron Lady" has earned her a lot of acclaim, but she hasn't earned a dollar. She donated her entire salary to the Women's History Museum. She also told Ellen an incredible story about a woman from American history who most people don't know!

  • She has probably donated millions to charities to help children or poverty or whatever so everyone's whining about her donating money to a museum is irrelevant. A million dollars isn't a lot of money, at least not in terms of stopping poverty and things like that. Other than that, it's her money and when was the last time you donated any money to anything? Yeah, never but you could've donated instead of spending on a flat screen TV or whatever luxury item you ever bought. Just shut up.

  • just casually " I made a million dollars"

  • i wonder how much she has in the bank to casually say i made a million dollars, then give every penny away - great job that she did but i can't imagine how much money she must have!

  • Well done, Meryl.

  • its an alright cause to donate to but i mean on my deathbed id want to know that ive had some impact on someone and thats what she has done

  • @Eldomina22 yea, ur not retarded, food , or 1 million dollars, she has food + 1 million dollars douche and ur god can go bless my dk, if hes not busy giving children aids

  • @sokolshala You don't need to eat food today. But you will. How terrible, when there are people starving.

    God bless Meryl for giving the money away at ALL.

  • @sokolshala Well, why don't YOU donate money to starving children? Why are you so prissy about what people do with THEIR money...? You wouldn't want me to tell you what a selfish ass you're being for daring to pay for internet - I mean, do you REALLY need to be commenting on Youtube when African babies are starving?
