Quit slating Peaches - this isn't a beauty contest.
No, I'm not talking about looks, style or dress sense - I'm talking art. Peaches Geldof was kind enough to draw a picture for the One Million Masterpiece a few weeks ago, but has since come in for some criticism for her contribution. I know that some people have nothing better to do than comment on other people, but at least do it quietly while the rest of us actually get things done.
The picture in question is a perfectly executed sausage-horse complete with rider and an assortment of names and initials. The image was reproduced by the Times and commented on in a whole range of
Now I know it's just a bit of fun, and these comments are easily forgotten, but I don’t want them to ride over the main message of the project. The point is that what Peaches has drawn is just as valid as every other picture, because it says something about her. It is a valid viewpoint of this world, and in capturing the way she drew it we have preserved a precious and intimate moment in time - just one of one million that we are attempting to capture. Equally important is the fact that Peaches has generated the charity a whole load of publicity which is precisely the point in asking her to contribute. In the area so skilfully inhabited by her father, Peaches has shown that she can use her status to publicise global causes and play a role in making this world a slightly better place.
I congratulate Peaches and sincerely thank her for her contribution. And if you still have a problem with her picture then sign-up and tell her yourself - just quit emailing me!
