Amy Winehouse Set To Rock Out In Human-Powered Nightclub

Filed under: music — michael @ 10:39 am

winehouse1.jpgWhat’s better than urine, human sweat, and Amy Winehouse? Rarely anything! Unless of course, it’s Amy Winehouse causing the sweat, which increases the urine, and ultimately helps power a nightclub! Go team!

Reports are streaming in that the less-than-healthy Winehouse has signed on to sing at the September opening night of Watt club in Rotterdam, Netherlands. As one source explained, “The energy will come from urine and sweat from the visitors. Toilets will be flushed by rainwater.”

Basically, the entire dance floor will be one large energy-generating system. When the music starts to rock, vibrations from people jumping and grooving will create electric currents to charge a battery or other devices. Granted, I’m under the impression that this probably won’t be enough to make the entire club energy independent, but it certainly is a fantastic use of human power.

Back to Winehouse — don’t expect her to be christening this club because she’s into the environment. There’s also a ridiculous paycheck on the table for her services in the amount of $700,000. Granted, unless you have Winehouse stapled to the stage, it’s almost a given that some “crisis” will cancel her performance at the last minute. Watt owner Aryan Tieleman thinks otherwise saying, “It’s as good as certain.” Yea, ok. Pour us an organic beer, Aryan, and we’ll tell you another one.

Amy WineHouse Gets Naked For Charity

Filed under: campaigns — michael @ 9:05 am

winehouse2.jpgYes, Amy Winehouse is a bit off the deep end when it comes to her personal life, but the girl’s got a voice in her that’s unlike any other I’ve heard. Still, everytime I see her it looks like she’s just gotten attacked by deranged makeup artist. But, let’s talk about nudity.

Winehouse has decided to bare all (PG-13 style) for photographer Carolyn Djangoly to help raise awareness for breast cancer. She joins other names such as Singer Sade and actress Helena Bonham Carter for the campaign. Much like the odd Michael Botlon/naked Nicollette Sheridan ad that somehow raised money for young boys, we’re perplexed over the message of this one. Still, if you’re keen to see Winehouse in her birthday suit, click more below.

Celebrities Donate Gowns For The 27 Dresses Charity Auction

Filed under: campaigns, contests, fashion, shopping, thegreenpicture, web — parrish @ 10:26 am

What do Kylie, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Amy Winehouse and Renee Zellweger have in common? They’re all donating gowns to the 27 Dresses Celebrity Dress Auction…starting today! 

The auction is going live on eBay tonight at 7pm and will help raise funds for the Lavender Trust charity- a group supporting women suffering with breast cancer. All the dresses will be sold on eBay at three-day intervals until the release of the film.

Many of the donations are well known red carpet dresses, and straight off the backs of people like Mariah Carey, Geri Halliwell, Thandie Newton, Naomi Campbell and Heidi Klum

Obviously, the auction comes just in time for the release of Katherine Heigl’s latest film, 27 Dresses, which will hit nationwide March 27th (insert obvious plug here). 

So if you just gotta, gotta, gotta dress like a star and want to help a super neat charity, visit the 27 Dresses Celebrity Dress Auction homepage and find out more.
