Matt Damon's 'news conference' for toilet strike: 'I will not go to the bathroom'


Matt Damon has gone on strike... for water. Damon held a fake news conference for a Water.org PSA to help raise awareness for the world's water crisis, and he has announced that he will say "'no' to toilets, say 'yes' to clean water and sanitation for all."

"In protest of this global tragedy, until this issue is resolved, until everybody has access to clean water and sanitation, I will not go to the bathroom," Damon says in the above video. "I'm not going to go to the bathroom."

As the ensemble of fake reporters asks continually hilarious questions, Damon concludes, "I implore everyone in this room, please, everybody here today, everybody watching at home, to just join me, say no to toilets, say yes to clean water and sanitation for all. Okay? That's all."

Water.org has reportedly already raised more than $20,960 in donations thanks to Damon's PSA. You can find out more information at StrikeWithMe.org.
