Charlize Theron’s Big Give: Bid on Her Cannes Festival Gown!

IPOL/Globe

First Drew Barrymore donated $1 million dollars while on The Oprah Winfrey Show, and now Charlize Theron is appearing today to donate her one-of-a-kind Narciso Rodriguez gown that she wore to the Cannes Film Festival in 2000 (her first visit to the legendary event). The gown is going up on eBay to be bid on to benefit The Charlize Theron Africa Outreach Project, which was created by Charlize in partnership with the Entertainment Industry Foundation. The project’s goal is to create a safer, healthier and better life for impoverished children and their families in South Africa, especially those suffering from HIV/AIDS. And in case you want to wear the dress to your next big shindig, the bias-cut silk gown with Swarovski crystals is a size 4.

Lauren Conrad Readies for Her Runway Debut

As if having your first runway show at Los Angeles Fashion Week wasn’t enough, Lauren Conrad is still having to deal with rumors of Heidi Montag‘s competing clothing line. But Heidi’s “affordable fashion” isn’t on Lauren’s radar anyway — the designer not only admits to USA Today her love of Moschino and Marc Jacobs, but her case of nerves about her debut runway collection. “I’m really nervous. It’s one thing to have your designs displayed in stores. To have them walk down the runway is a really big deal,” Lauren says of her eponymous collection. The Hills star admits that without fame she wouldn’t have come so far so fast. But as much as Lauren loves her designer shoes, don’t expect her to be designing them anytime soon. “I don’t know if I would do shoes. I like buying them, but that’s not something I’d be good at designing. I’m gonna stick to buying shoes.” Check out Lauren’s existing line by clicking here, and come back on Wednesday for all the details on her fashion show.

The cast of Ugly Betty doesn’t return to production until March 17, but Becki Newton, Vanessa Williams, and Mark Indelicato filled supporting roles for costar Rebecca Romijn at the bebe Spring ad campaign party hosted by InStyle magazine in Beverly Hills Thursday night. “Rebecca looks flawless” in the bebe campaign, Williams told PEOPLE on her way into the party. “When I see her I’ll say “Where’s the champagne?” Romijn, who chatted with each of her costars in the three-story Rodeo Drive store before signing autographs outside, was feeling the love. “When I heard today that [my castmates] were all going to be here I couldn’t believe it. I want to cry I am so touched.” Check out all of Rebecca’s new ads at bebe.com.
