Sarah Ferguson leaves the Renaissance Hollywood Hotel on Sunday May 23rd 2010.

Caught in the middle of a bribe scandal, The Duchess of York (also known as “the original Fergie”) has been making headlines even more than usual these days. But contrary to the bad press she’s been receiving lately, Fergie has always been well known for her humanitarian efforts. The Duchess was recently spotted at Renaissance Hollywood, receiving an award from Variety International for her philanthropic work with disabled and underprivileged children.

Poised as always, Fergie had a lot to say about the nature of philanthropy:

“I learnt today about making a difference. Most importantly I learned I hate grown-ups and I love children. When I got on that plane from London tonight, I thought, phew, what a heavy day. But when the children’s choir came out tonight and I saw their little faces, I turned round to my friend and said, ‘You know what, I’m glad I did because it is about the children’,”
