Pity he didn't go to The Oval on the 19th and seen some live international cricket. I wonder if he commiserated with the staff there over the death of one of Surrey's bright young cricketers on the 18th, particularly as Charles is the Patron of the Surrey County Cricket Club and owns The Oval Cricket Ground (it is owned by the Duchy of Cornwall estate).
 
I have to say, I've never had much admiration for Will.i.am of the Black Eyed Peas, but I'll hold my hands up and say I was wrong.

Today Will.i.am met with Prince Charles to donate £500,000 to the Prince's Trust. The singer saw the Trust at work last month at a project in Newham. He grew up in East LA and his mother was a single parent, so the Trust is right up his ally. He says the British people have taken him into their hearts (he's a judge on The Voice UK) and he wants to give something back.

What a gift. Well done to him.

I can imagine that it's been a topic as well..



Black Eyed Peas star Will.i.am has donated £500,000 to the Prince's Trust and today met with the Prince of Wales at Clarence House. The Black Eyed Peas' frontman said he wanted to help transform the lives of disadvantaged young people.

I have to say, my opinion of Will.i.am was similar to yours. However, that's a genuinely nice thing of him do and I, for one, applaud it.
The Prince's Trust does make a lot of difference, and the £500,000 will give a second chance to many.

Remember we all wondered why on earth he preformed at the Diamond Jubilee concert since he wasn't British? I'm sure Prince Charles made sure he got an invitation.

This is where Prince Charles comes into his own. He can open doors and get in front of philanthropists in a way that no politician could. The fact that the Trust is headed by the PoW gives it a cache and reputation that is so valuable.

Not to mention, he (Will.i.a) got to carry the Olympic torch. ;)
But fair play to him; to me, it looks like a genuine act of philanthropy - and Prince Charles made sure he got some reward for it (the concert and the torch again).

I agree with your point about the POW but just wanted to comment on Wil.i.am being American and performing at the jubilee concert. Stevie Wonder also is not British and neither are Brian Wilson, Ricky Martin and Tony Bennett who all performed at the Golden Jubilee concert. It seems that although there was a focus on British and commonwealth performers the organisers of both concerts were happy to involve a smattering of "outsiders" (no offence intended).

It is a nice gesture from Wil.i.am - I just wish the Daily Mail could have refrained from characterising it as social mountainclimbing. If it improves the lives of young people then he can mountainclimb for all he's worth to my mind.

Thank you, Ctf922! I saw this documentary when it aired on ITV and I've been hoping it would be uploaded to YouTube so others could see it.

Charles's efforts and dedication to this project, and the area as a whole, is wonderful to see. He doesn't just go around learning about the problems and difficulties that people in our country are dealing with; he actually tries to do something about it. He's an inspiration.
