I've recently discovered the Celebrity Experiences up for auction at CharityBuzz.com. If you win one of these pricey-but-awesome hangs with stars, the money goes to a variety of notable causes like Habitat for Humanity, American Red Cross, Songwriters Hall of Fame, Susan G. Komen Foundation and other worthy non-profits. So if you work out with Hugh Jackman or hang with Alec Baldwin on the set of 30 Rock or get a walk-on role in HBO's Entourage, for instance, your cold hard cash would do a lot of good. But as priceless as those celebs are, I can think of a few Celebrity Experiences that would be worth even more. Maybe you could have a major role in the next Taylor Swift video. Or play Miranda Lambert's stylist for a day. Or sing a duet live with Lady Antebellum at a concert near you. Or go on a yoga/mani-pedi/Starbucks run with Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman. They did just have a Zac Brown Band "Eat & Greet" that gave you the chance to have lunch with the band before their show and get VIP seats, with the proceeds of that going to Urban Farming whose mission is to eradicate hunger, alleviate poverty and green our environment. More of that would be nice.
