In December, a month in which 62 percent of Americans are planning to support charities for the Holiday season, The Daily Beast undertook an extensive study on the effects of celebrity on charities. Looking at the 50 biggest celebrities allied with a nonprofit, either as a member of its board or advisory committee, an ambassador, or the face of a campaign, The Daily Beast tallied how much awareness they produced for their favored nonprofit in print, television, and online, and also calculated any personal donations to the charity, since cash is the most direct impact of all.

Using VMS and BurellesLuce, media-monitoring firms, along with Lexis-Nexis and Google search results, The Daily Beast compiled and attributed value to media mentions.

The Top Ten:
#1, Justin Timberlake, Annual Impact: $9,262,381
#2, Madonna, Annual Impact: $5,540,068
#3, Pamela Anderson, Annual Impact: $4,840,168
#4, Oprah Winfrey, Annual Impact: $3,973,870
#5, Bono, Annual Impact: $3,598,313
#6, Angelina Jolie, Annual Impact: $3,015,070
#7, Rihanna, Annual Impact: $2,305,743
#8, George Clooney, Annual Impact: $2,184,500
#9, Salma Hayek, Annual Impact: $1,620,959
#10, Shakira, Annual Impact: $1,284,431

At the Bottom:
#50, Paris Hilton, Annual Impact: $538
#49, Robert De Niro, Annual Impact: $7,527
#48, Hilary Duff, Annual Impact: $16,800
#47, Celine Dion, Annual Impact: $30,366
#46, Jerry Seinfeld, Annual Impact: $60,036

Everyone hates Jordan!! [Dec. 25th, 2009|03:21 pm]

Peter Andre has pipped former wife Jordan a.k.a Katie Price to bag the hero of 2009 title in a survey. The Aussie singer beat fellow divorcee Jo Wood, followed by X Factor winner Leona Lewis to win the celebrity of the year crown.

Jordan, on the other hand, was named voted the most hated celebrity in Britain as she topped the annual poll of the celebrity Villains of 2009. The glamour girl was trailed by supermodel Kate Moss, drug addict Amy Winehouse and disgraced rapper Kanye West in the survey headed by Virgin Media.

"After 12 months of controversial celeb highs and lows, it's interesting for us to let the public have their say," the Daily Star quoted Alison Davis from Virgin Media, as saying. "It's obvious with the opposing leaders, Katie and Peter, both securing landslide victories, that public interest in their saga is still strong," Media added.

idgi, Jordan is super classy, right?

IN a year when retailing flat-lined, when a flailing economy sent creative types scurrying for aesthetic foxholes, when the most indelible fashion image was of a dead man’s sequin glove, a single unlikely figure raised the flag for style and its power to confound, bewitch and amuse.

Domestic-Violence Crusader Mary J. Blige Slugs Husband [Dec. 25th, 2009|07:48 am]

Mary J. Blige has cranked out another hit, but this time it seems like a slight overreaction:

Mary J. Blige punched husband Kendu Isaacs in the face at her record release party at club M2 Tuesday night. The singer slugged Isaacs, drawing blood, after she thought he was flirting with a waitress. “She turned to him and was screaming, ‘You’re not going to ruin my night,’ ” our witness says. “They got up in each other’s faces before someone tried to separate them, at which point she shoved the guy aside, pulled back and popped [Isaacs] in the face.” The source said Blige, Isaacs and their entourage were whisked through a door to the attached club Pink, which was closed. Our witness relates, “She was yelling at him, ‘What are you gonna do, Chris Brown me?’ Four of her bodyguards and two of the club’s kept them apart.” Isaacs was kicked out. Blige went to the bathroom to fix her hair and makeup, but soon fled, creating an uncomfortable scene for partygoers Jay-Z, Beyoncé and Busta Rhymes.

That must have been especially awkward for Jay-Z, considering the way he handled Chris Brown after he attacked Rihanna last winter. No word yet whether MJB will receive the same treatment.

But didn’t Mary J. Blige just open a domestic-violence shelter in New York last month? Why yes, yes she did:

MJB’s organization recently teamed up with Gucci creative director Frida Giannini and several New York-based organizations to fund the opening of the Mary J. Blige Center for Women, based in Yonkers.

The singer was on hand to open the facility on Thursday.

She tells CNN: “All age ranges will be able to come to this center. Women from all walks of life, not just women from poverty-stricken areas. Whatever it is, they’ll be able to come here. There are gonna be psychologists here, doctors here, day care centers here. Anything that you need or they need to be able to better themselves is here for them.”

The Grammy Award winner says she is delighted to use her fame for a good cause: “That’s why I think as celebrities we’re given this job. We’re not given this job to just hold onto this stuff and die with it. We’re given this job to be able to touch someone and say, ‘me, too,’ because they look up to us and look to us for help and guidance and want to be able to relate to us.”

I don’t think “we’re given this job to be able to touch someone” means punching them in the face during a jealous rage. Keep your fists in your pockets, woman.

REPORTS OF TONY ROMO ENGAGEMENT CRUSH JESSICA [Dec. 25th, 2009|07:42 am]

There's no denying that Tony Romo has a type.

The Dallas Cowboys quarterback has moved on from ex Jessica Simpson and is reportedly dating a blond look-alike.

But the new woman in question isn't just any blond – Romo is said to be dating "Gossip Girl" star Chace Crawford's younger sister, Candice.

Sources tell CelebTV.com that Romo, 29, has been "getting very cozy" with the 22-year-old former Miss Missouri.

The hot new couple presumably met by mixing business with pleasure.

Candice covers high school sports for local Dallas TV station The 33-TV and also hosts the Dallas Cowboys weekend sports show, "Special Edition."

Coincidentally, Candice bares a striking resemblance to Romo's other ex, Carrie Underwood, who actually dated older bro Chace before he ended the relationship via text message in 2008.

It's nice to see Hollywood still recycles!

keira can't cook [Dec. 25th, 2009|01:03 am]

Keira Knightley is steering clear of the kitchen this Christmas - because her cookery exploits usually end in tears.

The Pirates of the Caribbean star admits she is not a culinary expert, and can rarely rustle up a meal without creating a disaster.

Knightley insists she is always burning her dinner, or dropping dishes - but she's hoping someone will buy her a cookery book this year so she can improve her kitchen skills.

She says, "I am not the best cook in the world. I have tried, but I really am hopeless. I can cook maybe one dish. But even then, if you ate it, you'd probably end up with food poisoning. Recently, a friend explained how to make an eggplant bake. I brought it out of the oven in this beautiful bowl - and dropped it. It smashed all over the kitchen, and I burst into tears. Which is why I will ask Santa for some easy-to-understand cook books."
