Heather Mills is back in the British ‘bloids for resurfacing on the U.K. skating competition Dancing on Ice. To drum up public support for her latest on-air antics, she has repeatedly boasted that she will donate her appearance fee to charity, telling the audience:

I’m doing this for charity and to inspire all the amputees on my website. After the dancing show in America, I had emails from young amputees asking me to show them how to do things.

She’s also showing them that it’s totally cool to renege on promises she’s made to her favorite landmine charities. At least, back when she received $48.6 million for suckering Paul McCartney into marriage for a couple of years, she was pretty well poised to save her favorite charity, No More Landmines, from going spectacularly belly up:

It was her work with [No More Landmines] which first led to her introduction to Sir Paul McCartney at a charity event, and he donated £1 million to it soon after they married.

But, I can reveal, No More Landmines folded eight months ago. The charity, which in 2007 held more than £200,000, reported an income of just £285 last year.

In interviews to publicise herself, Heather says many of her charities have suffered because of her poor public image and the best she can do for them is dissociate herself.

Odd then that she still hypes No More Landmines as “her cause” on her website if she really wants to dissociate from them. Unless, say, she just wants to be seen as a charity campaigner without putting her money where her mouth is.

Sister, can you spare a dime? If not, care to explain?
