I believe she's doing this more for her own image, than for the cause (she wears designs who aren't good for the environment at all..), but at least something good is coming out of it. If you don't agree, just ignore it and go on with your life, it's no big deal.
She'd only be a hypocrite if she'd said she'd never do something like this even for a worthwhile cause, but someone earlier posted a quote to where she did infact say she'd only consider it for a worthwhile cause. No hypocrisy there.
Saying she wants a 'normal' life does not mean she can't still be involved in something charitable. Many students are.

We all wear clothes that are not 'good' for the environment because that's mostly all that's available. If this type of clothing grows, we'll all be better placed to make informed choices.

She could be doing it for her 'own image' the same as anyone else who ever gets involved in a worthy cause. But it's still a worthy cause, and if her being involved means some younger people take an interest in issues like Fair Trade then I, at least, am VERY glad cause it's something that very close to my heart.

It just seems some folks are always looking to accentuate the negative. But hey...opinons...
