Philanthropy

This is semi-nauseating but we will still tell you what we found this week on eBay. You can always find bazaar celebrity crap on eBay but this might take the cake. This week you can find Scarlett Johansson's used tissue. She was just on NBC's "Tonight" show promoting her new movie but no one really paid attention to that but, rather, the cold she caught from movie co-star Samual L. Jackson was a point of interest. Johansson was sniffling so Jay Leno handed her a tissue and voile its on eBay now. At least the money is going to a good cause, the actress publicly pledged to put all the money towards the hunger relief charity USA Harvest. Last time we took a look the snotty tissue had some 70 bids and was up to about $35K. The auction ends on Monday so if you're seriously obsessed you better get to it. We know Johansson probably has some psycho stalkers out there who would encase and cherish the tissue forever, go figure.

Here we go. Harrods the London-based luxury retailer we die for has been having a charity auction since December 8th. 'Tis the season of giving and Harrods will be donating all auction proceeds to the Great Ormond Street Hospital, how sweet.

Among the glitz and glam for auction is the world's most expensive man-shirt. For the man who already has everything, get him the white shirt by Eton. The collared shirt is fabricated in premier Egyptian cotton, plus, you know, some diamonds. Yup, multi-colored diamond buttons and cuff-links ya'll. Your man will be pleased with this addition to his wardrobe. He will command and dazzle any holiday party this year in the Eton shirt. The diamond-encrusted shirt is valued at $28,258.00 but it's an auction so for the sake of charity, we hope it pulls in more. In this day in age, diamonds aren't just a girls best friend.

Thanksgiving is a day of thanks and giving and Kim Karashian actually seems be doing both. The reality-tv buxom beauty, ex- Paris Hilton bff, Playboy girl and step sister of Brody Jenner, is auctioning off her stuff on eBay for charity.

Her charity of choice is the Dream foundation, which is an organization that grants wishes to terminally-ill adults, very similar to the Make A Wish Foundation for children. Kim volunteers for the organization and a portion of all her eBay proceeds will go to the charity.

Kim will be auctioning off her designer clothes, shoes, bags and even a Range Rover, Mercedes, and Maserati from her car collection. Plus, Kim's convinced her two sisters Kourtney and Kloe, along with boyfriend Reggie Bush to auction off their belongings too. Kim Kardashian's charity auctions are running on eBay now and will be up through Decemeber 3rd. So if you have a Kardashian obsession, want something pricey at discount or just like giving back too, go to eBay right now and bid. No matter how small the feat, every little piece helps so thank you Kim. It is kind of cool to see the famous and rich doing their part and giving back. Happy Thanksgiving ya'll and Black Friday is the biggest shopping day of the year so help our economy out and go spend money!

No one really cared when Subaru and L.L. Bean hooked up. Or blinked when Mercury and Nautica collaborated. Even Levis Edition Jeeps weren't that, that cool.

Now get this, South Korean car maker Hyundai and Italian fashion house Prada are hooking up. A few years back when economic times were good, this would have been a laughable, probably disasterous decision on Prada's part. Having said that, being in the great depression has upped Hyundai's ante, fill in the blanks yourself.

Hyundai's new Genesis sedan is considered upscale now, enough for Prada though? We thought Prada was hungry for attention but with more research found that the house was just being Philanthropic. Thank god the economy hasn't fully messed up the high-fashion universe.

This coming April, Hyundai will highlight one of only three Prada Genesis sedans at the Seoul Motor show in Korea. The other two Prada furnished Genesis' will be auctioned off for charity at the Prada Transformer show. Transformer is a standout project, which will be unveiled and hosted all by Prada, in Seoul, South Korea, this summer. Transformer is a tetrahedron structure in lieu of a theater that will house cultural, artistic and fashion events. Thus, the Hyundai Genesis begins to make more sense, South Korean carmaker, South Korean Show, get it?

The Transformer building will be able to be rotated on each side, with four different facades and floor plate configurations. Thus, floors become walls and walls become the ceiling depending on which event is to be displayed.

All we know is that the buyers of the Prada Genesis cars should expect some of the best leather seats ever and to pay way more for a Hyundai then should even be legal. We applaud the charitable efforts but will never get over the idea of precious Prada in a Hyundai Genesis sedan, gross.
