PerezHilton! You are my hero! I completely want to say thank-you about talking about autism just in this short clip. You're an inspiration to others who cannot voice their opinions. Thank you SOO MUCH! I think this is a wonderful idea and I'm 100% behind you. Oh. And P.S. I think you should make
VOTE PEREZIDENT t-shirts
!
That is a wonderful idea Perez!! But for real though, you need to do something with your hair!! It looks like ass!!
Perez, you may be a bitch about celebrites and say things that probably make alot of hollywood angry with you, but your probably one of the only people there with a soul. im so glad youre trying to better the world.
youre great!
Good for you Perez !!! it's nice to balance the dark with light !!!
everyone needs to feel like they are giving back, no matter how
silly it sounds. As you get older you will see how important it is
to help and donate, etc…For the Queens, reading is FUNdamental,
but it can leave you empty sometime, and nothing helps to balance that
out better than helping others who really need it. I'm very happy to see this happen here. Makes me feel less guilty about reading this blog.
I've worked as a therapist for kids with autism, and it is a very worthy cause.
I just love you to bits, P. Wish we could watch tv and eat junk food together. xo
The look on your face at the end was so beautiful… I have never posted before, but when you said that you were filled with optimism, it made me so happy. It actually made me vaclempt.
GET THE METRICS DOWN, PEREZ… IT'S THE CONCEPT OF TRACKING THE DONATIONS THAT MAKES YOUR IDEA TRULY GENIUS! Pick your causes and then track the donations of Perez readers, have contests… you DO have a platform and this IS the best way to use it! Way to come into your own power!!!
You could do a dollar a day comapign…where you have each reader do a dollar a day to various causes it could be massive the amount of donations generated…considering your volume of people who hit your site. its a little for us but collectively we feel like we were part of this massive difference
Hey Perez being that your colorful hair is your trademark maybe you should get some lazer hair removal on ur face done so u wont look so dirty all the time. P.S. This has nothing to do with me not loving ur site. lol but shit do something about all ur facial hair
awesome idea! it's good to see someone with so much power actually doing something like this!
i think you should concider reumathism. like soooo many other people i sugger from it.
and there is no cure yet, they are working on it.
but like i'm 20 years old and i'm not gonna be able to have kids and iäm already loosing my hair from the medication.
i think your idea is great! love you!
Good for you P!!!!!
Such a wonderful idea! I know that there is much that can be done for the ASPAC, the Humane Society, etc.–I get e-mails from them weekly, championing new causes, etc.
FINALLY!!!!! I am so excited to see you using your influence to do real genunine good! I know charity and giving is "hot" at the moment with Oprah's Big Give, etc. But we all really need to give back and be thankful for good health, food, and all of our blessings. I would LOVE to submit a proposal for support to a charity I have started for children with Arthritis. I am only one but I have the will and am trying to make a difference for sick and suffering children in the US. I would be eternally grateful for help! Thank you!!!!!
Perez Hilton for President!!!!!
Hey Perez!
I am 16 and a volunteer for an amazing international association called the FRIENDSHIP CIRCLE , which unites teens with special needs children (Down Syndrome, Autism etc.) in a relationship that promotes their acceptance in society and teaches them valuable life skills. My friend who has autism has taught me to be more patient, more kind and compassionate. All things our society today so desperately needs … wouldn't you agree?
Here is the link to the site: www.friendshipcircle.com
Visit the site…it really encompasses what u discussed in the video blog. Please dnt ignore!
Perez, what a great IDEA… This is exactly what you need to add to your site to keep it moving forward and stimulating …. and ALSO to give back to society… LOVE IT…

I read and see more and more now all these stories online and TV about Autism — it is just so sad and terrible to see what happens to those dear children… and the very sad thing about it all is, it could all be linked to immunization and the excesses of immunization.
-
I got connected to this subject, since I have been using zeolite to detox my own body of heavy metals and toxins, and started to see that parents were using it on their autistic children with stunning results.
-
When I started to read different case studies online with parents using zeolite on their autistic children, I was stunned — and never before that did I realize that it could all be a result of the overload of immunization doctors are giving children, too much — too young for their small bodies to handle.
-
It is great to see you taking up this very important and serious topic — that could be prevented….
promote NORML!
great idea..i work with atutistic kids and the numbers are growing…I must admit those kids are so fun to work with they totally think outside the box:)
I am so happy that you're doing this Perez. This is such a good, good thing. Way to go. My husband and I have worked with children with autism in the past, and have realized that life is hard anyway, but if you have Autism, things can be so much more complicated and challenging. These kids have so much courage, and strength, they deserve more attention and research.
Way to go Perez!
I have never posted, but read your blog daily. I am so impressed and glad that you are willing to step outside the box and push your readers to a new level. I will help by donating as much as I can.
In response to tracking the money, perhaps you could couple with the philanthropy you promote for a week and have them use tracking software (which I am sure they do already) that shows where their viewers come from. If they are part in setting up the link, then I believe this could be done quite easily, then you would have your numbers!
Well done Perez! Awesome. Love it Love it Love it
Great idea Perez! But a quick note: Jenny McCarthy's son HAD (past tense) autism. It can be curable if caught early enough and the child gets detoxed from the high levels of mercury and other toxins in the body. Each child is different. My best friend took a year "detoxing" her child and he no longer has autism. I've watched her go through and she's a super hero! And yes - it was autism, not anything else.
what good idea go perez
be yourself we dont need an other oprah
Looove it Perez!!!!!!
Good for you, this is a way good thing!!!
Today, I am happy to say that I am proud to be a Perez Hilton reader and fan.
Congratulations on such a great idea. I look forward to being a part of it.
Good idea!….It'll be like…carbon credits…only charity credits — to offset the wasted time & ridiculous nonsense we read on this site. I like it!
Your so cute Perez
&
You have a good heart for making this vid
Thanks a bunch, you really are helping so many people out there
:)
hellz yeah perez!!!!!!!
Perez your awesome:)
So glad Rosie's site inspired you to action.
I think this will be a nice addition to your blog.
Awesome Idea!! Really using your power and responsibility for good - being guided by the universe.
As far as the astronomically high numbers of new diagnoses of autism in children - look up the direct link with vaccinations - they are the root cause of so many developmental and immunological disorders!!
GreatGreatGreat idea! You are so great to. I had the same exact thought last night when I saw the link on your site. You are so right about this giving US a chance to make a difference. Many of us log on to your site to fill our minds with useless gossip (that i loves). Now we have an even better reason for our addiction of the #1 gossip blog. XOXOFrom BHam
How about you pledge to match dollar for dollar - every donation that comes from your referral here?
thats an excellent idea, even if you post 1000 messages and it only gets through to one person, its worth it. That is the beauty of these things… Just dnt stray too far from ur web's purpose.
P.S -you look alot better, i think you have lost weight, ur hair is actually ok too… and trust me that is hard for me to say!
How about some animal charities?
.
GOOD ON YOU PEREZ!! WAY TO USE YOUR POWER FOR GOOD!!!
.
PLEASE DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH AND MAKE YOUR OWN DECISION, BUT WHEN YOU ARE READY TO PICK ANOTHER ORGANIZATION, ONE OF MY FAVORITE CHARITIES IS…
.
HEIFER INTERNATIONAL
.
WWW.HEIFER.ORG
.
THEY FOLLOW THE PHILOSOPHY OF 'TEACH A MAN TO FISH'. THEY DONATE ANIMALS TO PEOPLE IN VILLAGES WITH LITTLE MEANS OF SUSTINANCE. THUS PROVIDING MILK, EGGS, WOOL, ETC WHICH GIVES THEM FOOD AND A TRADEABLE COMMODITY. OFTEN FATHERS THAT WOULD SELL THEIR DAUGHTER INTO SEX SLAVERY ARE GIVEN GOATS AND LAMBS IN EXCHANGE FOR KEEPING THEIR DAUGHTERS AT HOME. READ THROUGH THE WEBSITE AND MAKE YOUR OWN JUDGMENT.
.
I FEEL THEY ARE TRULY AMAZING!! MANY VERY WONDERFUL HUMANITARIANS HAVE ALSO ENDORSED THIS GROUP OVER THE YEARS.
.
JUST A THOUGHT!
you know, the Natural Foods Expo is this week/weekend in Anaheim, CA at the convention center. I'm sure there will be an awful lot of diet and supplement info, and educational resources on autism (Wheat Free/Gluten Free diets seem to have an incredible effect on autistic children and adults), plus a whole slew of other incredible causes to delve into. You should check it out! Thousands of people from all over the US come here to taste, and learn, and celebrate all things HEALTHY. I know I'll be there.
Love the new header on your website hun!
It reminds us all that fags are going to burn in hell….
Perez, just wanted you to know that this really hit home for me. I am currently awaiting the results of an AU Evaluation for my 4 year old son. I am terrified. I pray every day that my son just needs some help in some areas, but either way I love him more that anything. If only we could find a cure and it's people like yourself and other celebrities that have the voice and influence to do something about it. You really are a sweet guy and I commend you for trying to make the world a better place. Thank you..
P.S. Leave Miley alone.
I think this is a wonferful idea Perez. My son who is 5 years old was just diagnosed with leukemia last August and I have such a small voice that I can't get the awareness out there. It's great you're planning to use your big voice for a good cause and awareness. Thank you.
I work with autistic preschoolers and it is a fascinating and heart-wrendering disease. I'm actually writing a paper on it for grad school right now. I'm so pleased awareness is heightening for this disorder because it will aide research and hopefully one day we will be able to fully understand why autism occurs in so many (1 in 150 births is the current stat). Thank you so much for bringing awareness to your readers and using your fame towards good! There is also a HBO documentary premiering on March 25th called Autism: The Musical and it's supposed to be amazing…so check it out and God blesss!

please go look you will not regret it…worth your time!
hey Toni Colletes new movie is all abount autism also, with the chick from whale rider!
okay, honestly i think, as a social worker, it's wonderful perez is getting involved in a cause greater than himself. one can say he's the hetta hopper of his time, except with greater reach. anyway, i'm a proud donor of only fifteen dollars… but perez, god bless you for putting as much effort forward as you do. you are doing good in this world! PLEASE KEEP YOU'RE HEART OPEN!!!
Fix your teeth mate
You really are the sweetest thing Perez. Don't change a thing. We love you.
Finally you use your popularity for something good! You are evolving Perez! Congrats!
i love you. thank you so much for using your celebrity and your immense influence over our generation for good. the world needs more people like you…
ABSOLUTELY!!! I am so glad that you had this "A-HA" moment. I try to get my friends to donate to causes I believe in when I can but you have such a huge platform that it is great to see you trying to use it for positive change. We all read this blog for free and have a good time doing it. But just because we might enjoy a little light hearted celebrity gossip, doesn't mean we are not all well educated people ready to do our part to live in a better world. Come on people…we spend more at Starbucks!! Lets do our part!!
This is the first comment i've left on this site, but i read you all the time. Way to go for using your huge name and "fan base" for something that could really make a difference. =D.
You rock out perez! Fantastic Idea! P.s I love you!
thats great… WHERE do we donate exactly with your website?
You're a good guy, P! Great idea.
you are so cool
please include some animal rescue sites too… 
xoxo
PS How did shes like the wind do that day on itunes?
PEREZ YOU ARE AMAZING, SO AMAZING. WHAT AN INFLUENTIAL AND EXCITING PROJECT YOU ARE PIONEERING. FABULOUS! Love you boy, keep it up!
Yes Perez..This IS the PerfeCt shIzZ to do! it'S a geat idea….AutiSim Is a ig Thing That aloT of People doNt pay AtteNTion to..Please Keep this GoIng BecauSe I KNOW you havE ALOTof reAders And Is a Very suCessFul Person..KeEp It uP!!!
why must you feel the need to speak … and put ur face out there so much? … =C
i really cant stand you,
you make all gay people look like pussies
and drama queen bitches get a life! and stop
making mine look so bad! asshole!
thats funny, we used to have a-ha wednesdays at hairschool lol and if we messed up someones hair it was an "a-ha"
Hey i think that what you are doing is great. it is astounding the number of children in this country who are diagnosed with autism each year i have a cousin who has autism, and i babysit two young boys with asburgers syndrom (a lesser form of autism) The saddest thing about the whole thing is that many of these cases if not all are entierly prventable. The immunizations that we are given as children contain heavy metals which contributes to, and causes autism, and many other things. another worthwile cause. the make a wish foundation, they help terminaly ill patients to get one last wish.
Perez, that's awesome! I just recently began reading your blog and I love this addition!
One of the charities I'm involved with is called Operation Smile (www.operationsmile.org)- you should check it out!
this is a great idea. i wish more people would start thinking about autism. it affects everyone.
Perez, you may have had an A-ha! moment, but your video caused me to have and Awww! moment. You're really a great guy.
Hey Perez-
I've never commented before, but this is a great idea. I think since a lot of people of this website and big on fame, you should have some kind of arrangement where you pick a random donator every week or so and make a post with their picture and a little congradulations. It would probably really motivate people to donate.
Re: righinn – Autism is a serious illness, and should get the respect it deserves. Unless you have a child,relative, or close friend with an autistic child it's hard to imagine just how cruel this disease is. The Federal Government should be so ashamed for buying cheap vaccinations and passing them on to our children and grandchildren. When you watch a child go through a regression period its like watching a soul float away and an empty shell take its place. No more hugs, kisses,eye contact, just confusion and the worst heart break ever felt. I urge anybody who can help with this fight to please take the time to do so. It's almost election time-search your heart and pray for a good outcome-our autistic community depends on it.
Re: NVIC DOT ORG – AMEN to you!!!!! The government buys cheap vaccines and components and then poisons our children and adults. I have an autistic grandson age 5 and my Mother died after a flu vaccination triggered guillian berrett syndrome. I believe you are dead on track. I just wonder if there is a list of government officials,employees of CDC, and dept of social service employees that are parents or caregivers of autistic children. I would bet they all know something that we don't. I'd like to see the statistics
as compared to the rest of the general population,WOULDN'T YOU AND EVERYBODY?
way to shed light on an amazing cause, perez!! my older brother has autism and it affects SO many people and families in our country. i applaud you and really respect you for wanting to educate people on such an important subject!!! LOVE YOU PEREZ!!
Ya Perez! Autism is a really important cause for donation. Sadly people dont know enough about it to realize how important this is. It is affecting a lot of children and a lot of families and people need to open their eyes. GO PEREZ! Your amazing and great idea! Hopefully people will donate and not just ignore
perez,
i just wanted to thank you for getting information out there on autism. most people have heard about it and dont really understand it. i work with mentally and phyically challenged kids and adults and the one problem is that people tend to fear what they dont understand. autism is a very complex disorder and is very hard to deal with, i have and autistic nephew. again thank you for using your power and site for education as well.
thank you,
amanda nicole
Your site inspired me to do something as well. I created a website for autistic children. check it out its all free. www.floortimerepository.com
