跟进:《小捣蛋》童星Bug Hall众筹逾2.7万美元一度被暂停 平台审查后放行 本人称超额捐款不退

41岁的前童星Brandon “Bug” Hall住在美国阿肯色州乡间,第六个孩子即将出生。他11月5日在GoFundMe为安顿新家发起的2,000美元众筹,到11月9日已募得超过27,000美元,却一度被平台暂停打款。据《人物》杂志报道,Hall说众筹被大量举报后处于暂停审查状态,他暂时拿不到这笔钱,也删不掉这个页面。
Hall曾在1994年电影《小捣蛋》(The Little Rascals)中饰演Alfalfa。他与妻子Jill和五个孩子住在新购土地上的一辆露营车里,众筹原本只为补上拖欠的电话费、露营车用的丙烷费和一笔没想到的电线接入费。他最初说,募款达到2,000美元目标就关掉页面。捐款远远超过目标后,有支持者劝他收下全部金额,他在X上回道,自己会全部收下。
GoFundMe发言人对《人物》杂志说,平台团队正与发起人保持联系,正在协助他,确保资金快速、安全地送达。这是本轮进展中平台方面的直接表态,不同于此前只有Hall本人单方说法的阶段。
据USA TODAY报道,Hall在11月9日的更新中贴出一张与GoFundMe客服沟通的截图。按他贴出的截图,平台已经结束审查,资金将自动发放,他说页面将在两至五个工作日内删除。截至11月9日,这个众筹页面仍可打开。USA TODAY说已向GoFundMe求证,报道发出时未见平台另行回复。
Hall在11月9日接受Page Six独家采访时说,他在受访前不久才得知,平台的信任与安全调查已经通过、众筹已获放行,款项将在两至五天内转出。他说,如果没有被大量举报这回事,他在募到2,000美元时就会关掉页面、也会很满足。
对于超出目标两万六千多美元的部分,Hall对Page Six说他不打算退还。他说自己从没承诺过退还超额部分,也从没想过会出现超额,把这次结果看作上帝的安排,称会把这笔钱当作一份祝福收下。他说这笔钱能让一家人更快回到自给自足的生活,包括买农场动物、拖拉机和锯木机,最终盖起房子、搬出露营车。他还说,一家人每月的开销大约只有300美元。面对有网友劝他少生孩子、理清轻重缓急,他据USA TODAY报道回道,自己会继续让妻子怀孕。
Hall在2020年离开好莱坞,此后自称立下清贫之愿,与家人搬到阿肯色州Mountain View附近约80英亩的土地上过自给自足的生活。这次众筹从被质疑、被举报暂停,到平台审查后放行,后续款项是否按他所说的两至五天到账,仍待观察。

Follow-Up: 'Little Rascals' Star Bug Hall's $27,000-Plus Fundraiser Was Paused, Then Cleared — He Says He Will Keep the Excess
Brandon “Bug” Hall, 41, lives in rural Arkansas in the United States, where his sixth child is due soon. The $2,000 GoFundMe he launched on November 5 to settle his family into a new home had raised more than $27,000 by November 9, but the platform had paused the payout. According to People, Hall said the fundraiser was under review after being mass reported, leaving him temporarily unable to access the money or delete the page.
Hall played Alfalfa in the 1994 film The Little Rascals. He, his wife Jill and their five children are living in a camper on newly purchased land, and the fundraiser was originally meant to cover a phone bill, propane for the camper and an unexpected electric hookup fee. He first said he would shut the page down once it reached its $2,000 goal. After donations went far past that goal and supporters urged him to accept the full amount, he replied on X that he would keep it all.
A GoFundMe spokesperson told People that the platform's team is in touch with the organizer and is working with him to help ensure funds are delivered quickly and safely. That is a direct statement from the platform in this round of developments, a step beyond the earlier stage when only Hall's own account was available.
According to USA TODAY, in a November 9 update Hall posted a screenshot of an exchange with a GoFundMe customer service representative. According to the screenshots he posted, the platform had concluded its review and the funds would be sent automatically, and he said the fundraiser would be deleted in two to five business days. As of November 9, the fundraiser page still appeared active. USA TODAY said it had reached out to GoFundMe for comment.
Speaking exclusively to Page Six on November 9, Hall said he had learned only shortly before the interview that the platform's Trust and Safety investigation had been completed, the fundraiser had been cleared, and the money would be transferred within two to five days. He said that without the mass reporting, he would have closed the page at $2,000 and been happy.
Hall told Page Six he has no plans to return the more than $26,000 raised beyond the original goal. He said he never promised to return any excess and never considered that possibility, viewed the outcome as God's will, and would accept the money as a blessing. He said it would help the family return to a self-sufficient life sooner, including buying farm animals, a tractor and a sawmill and eventually building a house so they can leave the camper. He also said the family's monthly overhead is roughly $300. According to USA TODAY, when a critic told him to get his priorities straight and practise natural family planning, he replied that he was going to keep impregnating his wife.
Hall left Hollywood in 2020 and has since described taking a vow of poverty and moving his family to an approximately 80-acre property near Mountain View, Arkansas, to live off the grid. Whether the money arrives within the two to five days he described, after a fundraiser that drew criticism, mass reports and a pause before being cleared, remains to be seen.
