Breast Cancer Charity Has Issues with Speidi

The people behind the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer are distancing themselves from Heidi and Spencer ... claiming the reality duo did not "officially" participate in Sunday's event -- even though Heidi posed for several photos in official Avon gear.

A rep for the organization tells us, "While Heidi and Spencer did not officially participate in the Avon Walk and were not there in any official capacity, we do appreciate their support of the cause and the event."

Avon also notes that Fergie from the Black Eyed Peas was the official Special Ambassador for the event.

Sources at the race tell us Heidi and Spencer did not walk the course ... but merely showed up for a short while, took photos -- and then left.

As for the couple -- Spencer's rep tells us, "Having lost a mutual friend to Breast Cancer, neither Heidi or Spencer would've missed the event. It's a cause they both care deeply about."

So far, it's unclear if Speidi donated or raised money for the cause.

UPDATE: Sooo ... Spencer contacted us with more details. He claims he and Heidi,  "Accidentally happened upon the event, and immediately asked how we could participate. We would've loved to walk, but unfortunately Heidi's surgeries prevented that." Instead, Spencer says they bought "gear" to donate to the cause.

Spencer also corrected his rep's statement -- saying it's not a friend who had breast cancer ... he says, "My nana is in the hospital battling cancer right now -- so it's a cause that's extremely personal to me." Spencer says it's offensive for anyone to suggest this was just a "photo opportunity."

If they cared so "deeply", you think they would have done the walk. It would have been fun to see two turds walking around! (my apologies to the turds for insulting them) How low can they go?, just showing up to take pics, they're posers all the way around. I wish they would walk off a cliff.

Of course they didn't donate anything, just another photo shoot, taking advantage of a real cause. What's next, them posing at the WTC site in NYC or the Vietnam Memorial in DC?

Just when you think you couldn't hate them any more...

A rep for the organization should never of made that statement, who cares who walks, people show up for different reasons and they dont have to walk to support a cause, its pathetic that they made a statement about it, thats not what they are supposed to be about and they just participated in media b.s., its pathetic. The focus for the organization is supposed to be breast cancer not who walks and who just shows up. NOT EVERYONE WALKED MORONS!!!!! I'm very dissapointed in the organization now.....can you tell.........

What a bunch of complete douche bags!! They would use a charity fund raiser to get a photo op... I guess there were no little kids to beat up for their lunch money in the vicinity. So if you ever wondered how the low these two will go, now you know..
