Good Deeds

This year, Taylor Swift was a charitable chick who gave back to the music community in an apparent mea culpa for her never-ending cavalcade of break-up songs. Further proving that she lives the life of a Disney princess, good manners and all, Swift has been named the most charitable celeb of the year.

Celebrities have a lot of pressure on them to make everyone happy. There’s always someone who’s their biggest fan saying if they just had one minute with their idol, everything wrong in their world would be right. It's a pretty heavy burden to bear. But as Lady Gaga proved, sometimes a little day-making goes a long way – and it’s not even that hard to do.

Looks like Lindsay Lohan isn't the only recipient of Charlie Sheen's extra cash. The 'Anger Management' actor recently plunked down $75,000 to help a cop's daughter beat cancer.

'Twas a month after Halloween and all through New York, Heidi Klum was hosting a gala to benefit Hurricane Sandy victims. With Santa of course. FINE WE AREN'T POETS.

  For years we turned to MTV to watch the cast members of ‘Jersey Shore’ get tanked and destroy the businesses, beachside, and rental properties of the New Jersey coastline. Now that Hurricane Sandy schooled them on how it’s really done, the network wants to help put it all back together again for future generations to destroy. Starting at 11 p.m. (Eastern) on Thursday night, MTV's 'Restore the Sh

Earlier this week, Shannen Doherty, the former 'Charmed' and '90210' star, went above and beyond the call of ... well, whatever it is she currently does to save a Twitter user from themselves.

Those humanitarians on the cast of the 'Jersey Shore' are known for saving the world one drunk and disorderly at a time, but when Hurricane Sandy struck and destroyed much of the East Coast -- including their beloved Seaside Heights -- the gang put aside their GTL routine to actually do something philanthropic. (They'll know what that means once they look it up.)

Newark, N.J. major Cory Booker is known for his hands-on approach to politics and his comfort with social media like Twitter. And when those things converged in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy, he morphed right into a real live superhero.

Stars will flock to NBC on Friday night to raise money for the victims affected by Hurricane Sandy, which devastated the East Coast this week and left hundreds homeless and millions more without power.

Brad Pitt is a celebrity who -- even when he's making mockable perfume ads -- usually keeps his wallet out of political matters, choosing to generously throw money at a variety of charitable causes instead. But this week, Pitt broke one of his own unspoken rules by making a rather large donation to help same-sex marriage advocates around the country.

Actress Anne Hathaway swapped vows with boyfriend Adam Shulman in California last month, looking both lovely (thanks to a custom Valentino gown) and semi-homely (due to a rather unfortunate bandage-like headpiece). The paparazzi snapped some far-away photos of the nuptials, and Hathaway is now selling the professionally-shot official pictures -- but she won't be lining her own pockets with the pr

Okay, Jack Osbourne, you've won us over. You're clearly a very different guy from the insolent, whiny punk we used to watch on 'The Osbournes' -- but we didn't know you were in the life-saving business, too.

When ignorant and outspoken lawmakers start referring to women as "farm animals" and say that issues of contraception would be solved if ladies would just stop having the sex, it’s time for Hollywood to get involved. Because in Hollywood, you may be allowed to objectify women, but you aren’t allowed to take away their reproductive freedom. And all the degrees of Kevin Bacon know it. Rea

Dear celebrities: We know we give you a hard time because you live your lives in the limelight and beg for our attention so you can make more money, but we have to say, you melt our icy hearts you when you use your powers for good and not evil. Especially when you help some kids in the process.

Russell Brand doesn't exactly have a stellar track record when it comes to non-douchebaggery. But the (arguable) funnyman must be trying to rack up good karma points, because he recently made nice to a complete stranger and tried to help him turn his life around.

On the most fateful September day in our nation’s history, financial firm Cantor Fitzgerald lost an astounding 658 employees when the Twin Towers went down. To honor their fallen colleagues, the company holds an annual commemorative fundraiser -- and this year, Michael J. Fox has joined the effort.

When four-year-old Jayden Barber was diagnosed with what doctors said was terminal cancer, the Ohio boy had but one wish: he wanted to meet Batman. And last week, the actor who's played the Caped Crusader in three films, Christian Bale, made that wish come true.

During country star Kellie Pickler's rise to fame on 'American Idol' several years ago, her ditzy persona made many people question her intelligence. But if there's one thing you absolutely cannot question, it's her commitment to friendship -- especially after she shaved her head bald in a show of solidarity with her bestie who's battling breast cancer.
