Well probably not much anything, except of course for the fact that they’re all speaking up to encourage people to change the world.

In the video PSA, the celebrities share their thoughts on charity, activism and inspiration. Biel says:

“With all the challenges we’re facing today, it’s more important than ever to get involved, to be an active participant in your life and your world. It all happens with little pieces. Little pieces coming together really creates big change.”

While we love our celebs here at Ecorazzi, we’re also huge fans of everyday folks putting on those work boots and getting involved!

An old school aficionado myself, I was pretty stoked to see Steven Tyler, KISS, Dee Snider (of Twisted Sister), and several other rockers who are older than my father yet still kicking ass taking on this cause! If you haven’t caught it yet, you can see their PSA, “Rock Autism,” here.

Tomorrow Rock Autism is having a Celebrity Bowl-Off at Lucky Strike Lanes in Hollywood, from 7 to 10 PM, with benefits going to three different autism charities–Act Today, the Doug Flutie, Jr. Foundation for Autism, and the HollyRod Foundation. It will be hosted by Dave Navarro and Holly Robinson-Peete, and rocker bowlers will include Meat Loaf, Slash, and members of Anthrax, Great White, Ratt, Warrant, Candlebox, Lit, Cinderella, and L.A. Guns.

This is definitely something I would have sold a body part to attend when I was a teenager.

There will also be a silent auction of rock memorabilia, including signed guitars from Linkin Park and Tom Petty. Tickets are $150 and all go toward fighting autism. To get yours, visit Vh1ClassicBowloff.com

“People need to think more about the loss of energy and actually do something about it. For me, I try to turn off the faucet when I am brushing my teeth and I try and remember to close the refrigerator door.”

– Rocker Slash in a recent interview

[Ed Note: Lowest hanging fruit indeed -- but I guess we can't expect all celebrities to have a compost bin in the backyard or solar panels on the roof.]
