sandra bullock, blake lively and others speak up on behalf of 'gulf coast'

A few of my favourite folks ever have gotten together in order to do some promo work for the Gulf Coast disaster. They've teamed up with "Be the One" which is an effort of the 'Women of the Storm' organization.

Much like the Gulf Coast, Sandra Bullock certainly knows a thing or two about being blindsided.


The Oscar winner has joined forces with the likes of Blake Lively, Lenny Kravitz, Dave Matthews and other famous folks to encourage others to sign a petition demanding that leaders take the necessary steps to restore and protect the Gulf Coast in the wake of the recent oil spill.

“What can you offer?” asks Sandra. “Your voice. Speak up.”

Sign it. Share it. Be the One.

SO glad to see my best girls Sandy and Blake (as well as my favourite chef, Emeril) doing some work in order to bring aid to those (including animals and wildlife) who need it. Hopefully little to no more damage will be done to the area and the natural environment can be restored to its prior beauty. The more support they get, the better their odds right? I signed my name for sure, using a NYC Zip Code, lol. Hey, it's better than nothing right?! View more info about the cause as well as the Restore the Gulf TV Spot after the jump.

hils-d looking fabulicious

Just wanted to send a shout out to my girl Hils-D who was looking utterly FABULOUS while shopping late last week. The girl wears 4 inch heels on regular basis... My idol! I guess that what happens when you gotta go to Gucci...

 

Thanks to my fave Hilary fansite, Hilary Vault for the snaps!

jordin sparks talks charity

American Idol Season 6 Winner Jordin Sparks gave Look To The Stars an exclusive interview in which she discussed her heavy involvement with her numerous charities. I didn't realize she was up to so much lately! It seems any new music is kind of on the back-burner while she tackles the stage/rescues the world.

Wholesome, talented and sincere are the three words that come to mind when speaking of the Grammy-nominated 2007 “American Idol” winner, Jordin Sparks. Sparks is currently on her first headlining tour through mid-July in support of her second album, “Battlefield,” before heading to Broadway to star in “In The Heights.” Yet despite her busy schedule, Sparks relentlessly uses her name for good.

While maintaining a strong connection with her fan base, she’s using social media networks such as Twitter to inspire fan involvement with a number of causes including Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation for Childhood Cancer, the X The TXT campaign and the Sparks Charities Foundation. And if you listen carefully, you’ll hear Jordins heartbeat pulsating within an entire generation of fans out there making changes within their own communities.

It’s hard to image that – at only 20-years old – a mega-star her age is more interested in Tweeting about causes rather than the color of her shoes, which makes her not only relevant, but important. And this is just one reason why Look to the Stars was pleased to speak with this inspirational icon.

Wow... an "inspirational icon." Looks like they only have good things to say about Miss Sparks. She's def making a difference in her own backyard, which we, 9 times out of 10, forget to do. Click Here to read her full interview with LooktotheStars.org
