Miley Cyrus Auctioning Off Grammy Dress for Haiti Relief
Miley Cyrus is doing her small part by holding an auction on eBay for the dress she wore to the Grammys in order to raise money for Haitian relief. The Herve Leger dress will go to the highest bidder on eBay next week. Miley Cyrus tells USA Today,
"I'm going to auction it (the dress) off on eBay for the Red Cross. It's the little things you can do. I think it's really important that everybody come (sic) together because disaster relief isn't just now. It's how we're going to help years from now. We have to restore an entire place. It just can't be one person, one foundation, one group of people. All people have to come together."
The Hannah Montana star received both praise and flak for her choice in dress, but she is smart, knowing that she was going to use fashion to help she choice a dress that would get people talking and therefor be desirable to own. People are saying it's too tight, or too short, but personally I just don't get the shoulder pads. That's one fashion that could have stayed in the '80s.
The more I hear Miley talk the more I like her. Given that she is only 17, she is incredibly articulate and wise beyond her years. Miley is using her fame to help the world, others could take note. I hope more people get inspired by Miley.
What are you doing to help the Haitians?
