CABARET, Haiti - Matt Damon stayed calm and joked around while he helped with a chaotic food distribution Saturday in western Haiti, where hundreds of people remain homeless and hungry.

He arrived in the town of Cabaret with Haitian-born singer Wyclef Jean to distribute rice, beans and oil to residents of a town that saw 60 people die in flash floods when Hurricane Ike grazed Haiti last week.

Only hundreds? They're lucky they're not in Houston right now.

I hope you aren’t referring to Wyclef’s actions as a publicity stunt, he’s sincere in this .. Damon ... well ....

Damon is doing penance for looking so incredibly stupid.
This won’t help him...hes looked stupid for years, now he elevated himself to the incredible status.

If you want to be famous, for the most part there is something inherently wrong with you.

For these people their ego is never sated, they must be the most perfect humans on earth. Do I need to extrapolate on the actions of these kind of people?

He is a sleaze, no doubt, bit if he is actually helping rather than hindering then at least he is putting his money where his mouth is.

If he uses this later on to promote himself then he becomes even more disgusting.
