Lady Gaga Designs Bracelet For Japan Disaster Relief

Lady Gaga is reaching out to her Little Monsters to help support tsunami victims in Japan . Appropriately, she’s doing so with a fashionable twist. She designed a simple white and red bracelet, with the phrase “We Pray for Japan” in both English and Japanese. All proceeds go to relief efforts. The singer Tweeted: “I Designed a Japan Prayer Bracelet. Buy It/Donate here and ALL proceeds will go to Tsunami Relief Efforts. Go Monsters!” She’s off the wall with fashion, but on the ball when it comes to charity . Gaga’s bracelet costs a modest $5, but the Mother Monster encouraged her legions of followers – eight million on Twitter alone – to donate more if they can. Of course, there will be critics claiming “she’s only doing it for publicity” another such nonsense. But it’s always nice to see celebs using their fame for good. Follow the jump for a look at the item in question and if you wish to own one and support an important cause, the link above will make it happen … [Photos: Fame Pictures; Lady Gaga]

Alec Baldwin Offers Advice to Charlie Sheen: Beg!

The same man who cracks us up each week with dry-witted 30 Rock quotes has grown (somewhat) serious when it comes to Charlie Sheen’s career. In an editorial for The Huffington Post , based on his own experiences with executives in the movie and TV business, Baldwin addresses the troubled actor and says: “You can’t win. Really. You can’t.” Meaning what, exactly? Baldwin gives us a look inside the industry and continues: “No actor is greater than the show itself when the show is a hit. And, in that regard, [executives] are often right. Add to that the fact that the actor who is torturing their diseased egos is a drug-addled, porn star-squiring, near-Joycean Internet ranter, and they really want you to go.” Baldwin is correct that almost all hit shows remain popular and profitable after stars leave. Look at NYPD Blue , ER , CSI . In the end, here’s what Sheen should do, according to Baldwin: “Sober up, Charlie. And get back on TV, if it’s not too late. This is America. You want to really piss off Chuck and Warner Brothers and CBS? Beg for America’s forgiveness. They will give it to you. And then go back. You are a great television star… As I learned from closely observing Tony Bennett so I could impersonate him on SNL , this is supposed to be fun. P.S… buy Cryer a really nice car.” [Photos: Fame, WENN.com]
