I got a lot of gratitude and no complaints.”
Will.i.am
The Black Eyed Peas singer raised $5 million for school children after watching ‘Waiting for Superman’ documentary about underprivileged students. He said: “They might as well call that movie ‘Waiting for William.’ That’s the reason why I’m doing what I am doing because that movie hits straight to heart because my mom went to one of those schools. Superman is not coming to save no neighborhood or no education system (sic).”
