New Chatter

Friends and colleagues of Heath Ledger met on the Sony lot Saturday for yet another memorial service for the actor who died suddenly.
Those in attendance included Katie Holmes, Tom Cruise, Sienna Miller, Ellen DeGeneres, and Shannyn Sossamon. The ceremony was closed to the public. This one came after friends and family members had held a smaller service at a cemetary in Los Angeles.

Sienna Miller has donated a pair of her shoes in order to help raising money for the people suffering in Chad and the troubled Darfur region of Sudan.
Her donation is just a little part of many being made by a number of celebrities in what is Oxfam’s biggest ever celebrity and public auction.
Sir Elton John handed his tailor-made Donatella Versace suit which he wore to his white tie and tiara ball while Dame Helen Mirren has parted with her script for the Oscar-winning film The Queen.
There are many other interesting donations which include: signed photographs of the singer Jamelia, Tracey Emin artwork and the black leather jacket worn by Coldplay singer Chris Martin during the band’s Rush of Blood to the Head tour.
Explaining his support of the auction sir Elton said: “Try to imagine living in a tiny shelter made out of straw, dry branches, plastic sheeting with the sun baking down on you at 45 degrees. For most of us that’s beyond imagination.”
It’s great that such kind of auctions are organized because they could raise a lot of money and this way the people would realize that there are people who live in very bad conditions. Why don’t stop for a minute and think about that. Everybody could do something to help solving this problem.
