The list of celebrities contributing to relief efforts for the bushfire crisis continues to grow.

Waller-Bridge signed the label, detailing the encounters the suit had with other celebrities such as Tom Hanks, Elton John and Oliva Colman in a video posted by the Fleabag Twitter account."We're raising money for charities that really, really know what they're doing so you can be rest assured that the money's going right to where it needs to go."

Authors Nova Weetman and Emily Gayle sparked their own online movement when they launched the #AuthorsForFireys campaign on Twitter, which saw authors and publishers around the country auction off"signed books, illustrations, unique experiences, one-off opportunities and writers' services" with proceeds going to back to firefighters.

Wow. Awesome

Can't believe I have to say this.. Follow the money. The donations are not being used how they should be.

Thanks BetteMidler maybe you can join the big concert planned in February in Sydney 'Fire Fight Australia'?

So they are all getting on planes with all the crew and stuff and are coming out here and nz and are going to travel around in trucks and busses. Just the money will do bette and do it quietly

bush ...'fire relief' what does that mean who knows ...ABC you are not telling us what all these people are giving money to?

truly amazing people

From one Australian to all those with natural generous hearts tennis professionals to AU billionaires mining & cattle owners firefighters both here & overseas help also volunteer SES to American People movie stars & afar, also to all those who had loss You are all amazing people

Great from the Divine, many thanks 🤗🤗🤗

What a woman!

Thank you Bette! Appreciated greatly.

Australia is in the middle of Falling Growth and Hardship, Bushfires and Instability. Despite the fact Newstart hasnt been increased since 1994, when Liberals go back to Parliament, they want to reduce it in a bid to eradicate it entirely. What impacts will give Australia? Crime?

Many thanks Bette Midler for this most generous gesture. Means much to everyone - including those not able to give so much. Indeed it is the thought that counts🤗🇦🇺

I LOVE YOU, The Divine Miss M! Bette! You are truly beautiful, generous and kind! Love Your Fan, James

Generous donation by Bette.........Bush fires will be with us for decades with all this money flowing in I reckon.

Haven’t we suffered enough?

I suspect Australias Media is sugar coating just how ANGRY this country really is. Your damn right it is. Its about FCKING TIME. Is it going to take another 10 years and Terrorist Events before Australia talks about its Intergenerational War on its young? Bushfires/Violence works

Imagine sitting to watch a movie and then realising that every lead actor in anything you choose on Stan thinks you’re a total fuckwitt. Well that’s ScottyFromMarketting

Australians need to stop being so fcking nice. Australians been saying it for 10+ years. Scientists saying it for 10+ years. There's no need to be insecure about this anymore. Politicians now need to explain why they didnt listen? We dont need nice Australians. We need ANGRY.

How much did ScottyFromMarketting donate

BetteMidler 😍

Your not stopping it now. The cats out of the bag. With the exception to people like One Nations Malcolm Roberts still claiming 'Climate Change isnt real', this train has left station... and this train... is very... angry.

And has made sure everyone knows about it 🙄

The ugliest soul alive ?.

Thanks Bette, please dont assume you bought a seat at the table though.

Thank you BetteMidler very generous
