CELEBS AUCTION OFF BET AWARD GIFT BAGS: Chaka Khan, Thandie Newton, Lil John donate goodies to benefit AIDS org.
*Several stars at the recent BET Awards helped out an AIDS charity by donating goodies from the show’s gift bag to an online auction.
Chaka Khan, Harry Belafonte, Marlon Wayans, Lil John, Three Six Mafia, Chamillionaire and Will.i.am from the Black-Eyed Peas were among the celebrities who gave up such expensive freebies as sunglasses, gold jewelry, watches and designer clothing for an ebay auction to benefit AIDS Healthcare Foundation (AHF), the nation's largest AIDS organization which operates free AIDS treatment clinics in the U.S., Africa, Asia, and Latin America/Caribbean as well as the largest free alternative HIV testing program in the State of California.
The auction, opened on July 3rd at 5 p.m. and will close on Monday, July 10th at 5 p.m. at http://stores.ebay.com/otcstores.
Oscar winners Three 6 Mafia donated a pair of gold earrings and a signed RocaWear jacket to the cause, while T.I. literally donated the Chanel sunglasses off of his face. But it was rapper Chamillionaire who donated the single most expensive gift – a Rapstor watch valued at a minimum of $3,900.
