Bob Barker has donated $250,000 to help Pacific Marine Mammal Center in Laguna Beach, California recover from a flood in December. The disaster robbed the center of $250,000 to $300,000 of damages and a sea lion that was rescued from the waters later died at an evacuation center.

“I welcome this opportunity to help the Pacific Marine Mammal Center resume operations as soon as possible,” said Barker. “However, I hope the public will continue to contribute generously to the Center to help treat the hundreds of seal and sea lion patients that will be in need of care this season.”

If you didn’t give a roasted seitan about what celebrities do, you probably wouldn’t be reading this post.

The organizers of Climate Week realize that if people like Gwyneth Paltrow put up a story about composting poop on Goop, a trend will soon follow. That’s why they commissioned Millward Brown, a brand research consultancy, to use its “Cebra” (celebrity-brand) index to survey people to see which celebrities carry the greatest influence in inciting fans to act on saving the environment.

“We are often told that we are living in the “age of celebrity”. Yes, it’s an utterly depressing thought, but some believe we should exploit this collective obsession by putting to good use the mighty influence many celebrities wield,” writes The Guardian. “The reason is simple: many people – whether they admit it or not – look up to celebrities.”

And it may be even more utterly depressing to think of “scientific survey” and “celebrity” used in the same sentence, but let’s take a look at what Millward Brown did and found.

Barilla Pasta has announced it’s switching to cage-free eggs for 45% of its eggs by the end of 2011, Treehugger reports.

A cage-free environment allows the hen to do many of its natural behaviors, such as nesting and spreading wings, and therefore is said to lessen stress on the animal. Just imagine yourself not being able to scratch that area or, ahem, adjust yourself when the moment is right because you share space so cramped with other humans.

Pop star Rihanna has partnered with Parlux Fragrances to unveil a scent with her name behind the brand, Reb’l Fleur.

According to People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, Parlux signed a statement in 1995 that it would not conduct or pay others to conduct tests on animals. Some animal tests, such as the Draize eye test, which involves smearing a substance in rabbit’s eye, obviously involve pain to the animal. And in some cases, results aren’t predictive of what can happen in human tissue.

Reb’l Fleur comes in Eau de Parfum sprays and body lotion.
