Kudos to movie star Jessica Alba, who is making up for plastering a shark poster across a United Way of Central Oklahoma billboard by donating to the nonprofit organization.
The amount of the donation won’t be revealed, at the request of Alba’s representatives, a United Way spokeswoman told The Oklahoman’s Michael Kimball.
Alba, whose has been in Oklahoma the past several weeks filming the movie “The Killer Inside Me,” caused a stir when she was photographed plastering shark posters around downtown Oklahoma City.
The firmly glued-on posters were stuck on the United Way billboard, OG&E electrical boxes and a railroad bridge. The posters apparently were part of a campaign to raise awareness of the sinking great white shark population.
Alba apologized to the charity and OKC residents for the “shark sniping.” She was not charged with vandalism because the owners of the property she damaged, including the United Way and the city of Oklahoma City, declined to press charges.

Great. Maybe this will cover some of OKC head Bob Spinks’ ridiculous $145,127 salary so at least SOME of the money can go to help people. We need more incidents to cover these salaries:
