September 17th, 2007

Alright, this isn’t the usual type of stuff i post here, but let’s take a break from Celebrity Babes. Here’s a supposed “leaked” video of the Saddam Hussein execution, looks real enough to me, although the picture quality isn’t 100%, i’m pretty sure i heard a neck snap… relax, i’m kidding. It does however show a lot more than the local news channels have been giving us.

Christy Turlington, who relies on yoga to keep her healthy and balanced, is among a group of celebrities hoping to bring those benefits to the world.

Turlington, Russell Simmons and Ziggy Marley are participating in the Global Mala Project, an international effort that aims to use yoga-centered events to raise awareness and funds for global causes on the United Nations’ International Day of Peace. Events will be held in 30 countries, including Israel, Africa, India, Australia and the United States, beginning Sept. 21.

“With so many people involved, the impact is going to be quite astounding as a collective consciousness,” Turlington told The Associated Press. “There will be an energetic charge.”

“Selfless service” is part of the yogic tradition, the 38-year-old supermodel said, “so if anyone can lead in this way, this is the group to start with.”

Dozens of events will benefit charitable groups dedicated to fighting global warming and AIDS.– (AP)

Drew draws Angelina duty

May 10th, 2007

Drew Barrymore The esteemed Barrymore lineage can now count an ambassador among its ranks.

Drew Barrymore has been tapped to be an Ambassador against Hunger for the United Nation’s World Food Program, the organization announced Wednesday.

“I am honored and humbled to accept this challenging and rewarding assignment,” said the 32-year-old actress, who will focus on improving school feeding programs. “I can’t think of any issue that is more important than working to see that no schoolchild in this world goes hungry.”

Fresh from gracing the cover of People magazine’s recent 100 Most Beautiful People issue, Barrymore spoke from Washington, D.C., where she was on Capitol Hill to help lobby Congress about passing draft legislation that would expand the McGovern-Dole International Food for Education and Child Nutrition Program, which regulates funding for school meals.

“Feeding a child at school is such a simple thing¡ªbut it works miracles,” the Charlie’s Angels star said. “School feeding not only fills stomachs, but has a proven track record of boosting enrollment, attendance and academic performance. For just pennies a day per child, this program changes lives¡ªand ultimately can impact the futures of poor countries around the world in a profound way.”

The actress, who’s currently on the big screen with Eric Bana in Lucky You and just hit DVD yesterday with Hugh Grant in Music and Lyrics, recently returned from her second trip to Kenya, where she joined her fellow Ambassador against Hunger, marathon world record-holder Paul Tergat, to visit sites where U.N.’s World Food Project is in effect.

¡±We are delighted to have Drew Barrymore join our team,” WFP executive director Josette Sheeran said. “Her passion and commitment to changing the world for the better¡ªand of course the respect and admiration she commands¡ªwill make her a wonderful champion for school feeding.”

Barrymore joins a growing list of A-listers that includes Angelina Jolie (an ambassador for the U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees), Michael Douglas (a U.N. messenger of peace for non-proliferation), Brad Pitt, George Clooney, Madonna, Don Cheadle, Leonardo DiCaprio and many others who have in recent years added “improve global living conditions” to their to-do lists.
