In a tweet, the music mogul asked fans and the public at large to donate to efforts towards providing hospitals that are running low on masks and other critical items.
Hospitals are running low on masks, gowns, and other critical items. We need to replenish their supplies.
Take action, make a donation, and ask others to join the fight. We’re in this together. Let’s protect the responders on the frontlines.https://t.co/lfpBRWxUiw pic.twitter.com/hWWTwJhorY

Well, the Twittersphere was not pleased with Pharrell’s request. According to the response, the mogul is worth a whole lot and can afford to create a change without asking his fans who may not be so financially stable to do so.

Imagine asking the people who most likely are being laid off right now, to donate, while you could just get your fellow celebs to raise money…🥴 pic.twitter.com/TOSkDcSgXe

So lemme get this straight. You are asking the millions of American who may not have a job right now to donate?! You're asking people who have an avg HOUSEHOLD income of less than $55,000 to donate? Am I getting that right?

I just…..I just wanna make sure I got this correct:
They’re trying to raise $10 million. You’re worth $150 million. But you are asking our broke asses to donate?
Do I have that right? pic.twitter.com/z2VZhFj0AG
