Jon Hamm, Edie Falco, Keri Russell, Paul Rudd, Jeremy Sisto, Patrick Duffy, David Schwimmer, Rosanna Arquette, Ally Sheedy, Nathan Fillion, Kevin Smith, John Slattery, and Lili Taylor have all signed on to auction off lunch dates for The Adrienne Shelly Foundation — a non-profit that supports the artistic achievements of female actors, writers and directors through a series of scholarships and grants.

Currently, actor-director Kevin Smith is leading the bidding — most likely because every aspiring screenwriter is throwing their credit card at the auction in an attempt to get some time with the guy. That, and he’s pretty damn cool. Right behind Smith are Hamm, Fillion, and Rudd — who will meet you in either LA or NYC depending on scheduling; you’ll just need to cover travel and hotel expenses. The Foundation will cover lunch. Oh yea, you’ll also need to have a background check — so any stalkers are SOL.

Still hungry? Have a look at all of the auctions items here! Bidding ends on the 16th.

Paul Rudd as a dancing earth + Muppets = Hilarity.

Rudd lent his time to the Sesame Street special Being Green, that is being released just in time for Earth Day. Even as a giant plush Earth and with Muppets dancing all around, some people still find Rudd to be completely irresistible. Here’s a sample of the comments found on Youtube:

“my baby boy paul rudd! I’m LOVING this I’d like to make his world in this vid (get the drift)”

Um, yea. Check out the preview below:

Nick Lachey will be hosting the third annual Tacoma All-Star Celebrity Weekend September 21-22 to support the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) at Tacoma General Hospital and the Mary Bridge Children’s Hospital Parenting Partnership Program (say that one three times fast). So far $1.4 million has been raised for these charities in the past; this year Nick and Sarah Larson, Ryan Stiles, Vanessa Minnillo and other celebs will be playing softball at Cheney Stadium in hopes of raising even more.

The Detroit Red Wings are hosting the Ilitch Charities Celebrity Golf Classic today. Tim Allen, Dave Coulier, John Cusack, Cuba Gooding Jr., Thorsten Kaye, John McGinley, D.B. Sweeney and others will be playing to support Ilitch Charities, which supports community programs in community development, human services, education and recreation. 

Ben Affleck, Seth Meyers, Paul Rudd and Sarah Silverman will be playing at the PPA’s “Poker in the Ballpark” charity tournament tomorrow in support of the Paralyzed Veterans of America. Wait, check out that lineup again. I would love to be a fly on the wall to just hear the conversations between these people. Can you imagine?

Australian singer and soap star Imogen says it’s nice to be sexy for a cause. “One of the funny things about doing PETA work and other campaigns and then doing a lot of mens’ mag stuff is that I’ve always had this internal debate. Am I being a powerful female or, as some people might think, objectifying myself to men? But it’s been nice to do some sexy images that have a strong message.”
