Washington
(ANI):
Hollywood
star
Brad
Pitt
revealed
that
he
is
not
ashamed
of
using
his
star
status
to
endorse
his
new
charity
project.
Pitt
has
appealed
to
American
public
to
donate
towards
the
cause
and
said
that
he
isn't
worried
about
using
his
high
profile
to
raise
more
money
for
building
150
new
homes
in
New
Orleans
for
Katrina
affected
people.
The
Ocean's
Eleven
star
admitted
to
US
chat
show
host
Larry
King
that
though
he
usually
tries
to
avoid
media
attention,
there
are
times
when
he
uses
it.
“I
duck
and
jive
(from
the
press).
Keep
moving.
Keep
my
head
down.
That's
been
my
modus
operandus," Contactmusic
quoted
the
star,
as
telling
in
an
interview
in
a
US
chat
show.
“But
for
something
like
this,
I
feel
very
fortunate
to
have
it
and
I
can
direct
it
this
way.
It's
just
not
part
of
my
make
up
(to
manipulate
the
media).
I'm
not
good
at
it.
There's
other
people
who
are.
But
for
something
like
this,
I
feel
very
fortunate
to
be
able
to
do
it.
It
(the
media)
uses
me
and
I
use
it," said
the
43-year-old
star.
