Lady Gaga Creates Bracelet for Japan

Pop star Lady Gaga has showed her support for victims of the tsunami in Japan by creating a fundraising bracelet.

The star, famous for hits such as Poker Face as well as her outrageous sense of style, is now selling a simple white bangle on her website with the message “Pray for Japan” in English and Japanese and an image of a hand.

The price has been set at US$5 but the site is urging shoppers to increase the amount they pay at the checkout to help raise cash for Japan relief efforts, to which it claims all the proceeds from the bangles will go.

Lady Gaga’s website sells a vast selection of official merchandise, including jewellery. Some of the jewellery on sale at the site ladygaga.shop.bravadousa.com, includes necklaces with key, moniker, telephone and cross charms, as well as a rose motif ring in the style of Lola Rose.

Angelina Jolie co-Designs Charity Jewellery Collection for Asprey

World famous A-list actress and humanitarian Angelina Jolie is to co-design a range of statement jewellery with former Asprey CEO and friend, Robert Procop.

The line, named The Protector, will be designed and sold with all of the proceeds going towards Jolie’s charity, the Education Partnership for Children of Conflict which helps child victims of war and natural disaster. According to reports however, the pieces will not be available in even the most high-end shops and will instead only be available if you are a customer of Procop.

The pricey pieces from the "jewelry celebrities collection" reportedly include a pale green 353-carat pendant and a tablet-shaped 12.02-carat emerald ring set in rose gold.

Angelina Jolie has long been a fan of Procop, recently being pictured in one of his pieces, a faceted black necklace set in rose gold, at the Berlin premiere of the film Salt earlier this year. This is the second time Jolie has collaborated on a jewellery line, after she and her partner Brad Pitt designed a capsule collection for Asprey last year.
