Hilary Swank feels guilty about all the free stuff she gets when she goes to award shows. WHAT? Um… okay. So her New Year’s Resolution was to stop biting her nails. Oh no wait… that’s the resolution of every other celebrity in Hollywood. No, her resolution was to give away all her COOL, FREE STUFF. Right here sister!!
“Now, I’m getting all these free things thrown at me and it’s so strange. My New Year’s resolution is to get rid of some stuff because I bring it in and I can’t get rid of it. With my background, and how I grew up; I didn’t grow up with a lot of stuff and now I just have this terrible thing. A lot of us have talked to the Academy Awards producers about this and I think they’re actually going to scuttle the gift baskets and that kind of stuff. I mean the gift baskets, worth amounts of money that a low income family could live on for a year, (are given to) people who have so much already. It gets depressing.”
Hmmmm…she does not like swag?….well i can name quite a few stars who do not deserve swag…Hillary is not on the list of those who do not deserve it!
Good for her, i wish more celebs were like her!
I wish someone would give me a swag worth tens of thousands so I could get depressed
Pass those free gift baskets my way please.

Edward Norton has spoken out against the gift bags. I seem to recall that the IRS is going to start making celebs pay taxes on all of it. I do admire her attitude about this – it really is obscene when you think about it.
