Faith Hill And Tim McGraw Receive Celebrity Charity Award

Fri, 04 Mar 2011 15:00:00 +0000

Faith Hill and husband Tim McGraw were awarded for their charity work at a special celebrity-studded event earlier this week.

The couple were presented with the Country Radio Broadcasters’ Artist Humanitarian Award at the Country Radio Seminar at the Nashville Convention Center on Wednesday, March 2, in recognition of the work they do for those in need.

“Being honoured for our humanitarian work, while incredibly humbling, is also bittersweet for us because it comes at the expense of others who are suffering through hard times,” said Faith. “People just like us – with families, brothers, sisters, children and friends – need our help. People with or without homes, with or without jobs, with or without families, the fact is that uncontrollable and unforeseen disasters are not discriminating.”

It is not a case of what to wear for celebrities this month, but rather of what to give away, as eBay and other auction websites are inundated with the closet cast-outs of a variety of actors and singers.

Film company New Line Cinema is leading the charge by auctioning off original costumes from their current hit movie, Hairspray. Among the costumes are two dresses worn by John Travolta in the film, as well as the silk top and capri pants belonging to Queen Latifah. The proceeds will benefit Citymeals On Wheels, a charity that looks after those in need in New York City, as well as The Harry Holmberg Memorial Foundation, which is dedicated to sick children in the city.

Bidding on each costume is expected to reach $500, and the auction ends on August 4. It can be viewed at www.hairspray.ebay.com.

It is set into a knotted silk cord available in various colors, with each cord designating support of a unique cause. The bracelet costs $475 with $100 per bracelet benefiting its corresponding charity.
