WORLD AIDS DAY: CELEBRITIES "DIE" TO SAVE LIVES.





ITS WORLD AIDS DAY TODAY and many hollywood celebrities are currently dead digitally to raise money for Alicia keys' charity -keep a child alive.
                                              the video below explains it all.....




Poster ad for Keep A Child Alive stating "Kim Kardashian Is Dead" with her in a coffin

Kim Kardashian’s ad features her in a coffin wearing a provocative evening dress, creating the impression her glamorous life came to a sudden halt. The text underneath reads:
Kim sacrificed her digital life to give real life to millions of others affected by HIV/AIDS in Africa and India. That means no more Facebook or Twitter until we buy her life back. Visit BuyLife.orgor text “KIM” to “90999″ to buy her life now.

[Lady Gaga, Justin Timberlake, Usher and other celebrities have joined a new campaign called Digital Life Sacrifice on behalf of Keys’ charity, Keep a Child Alive. The entertainers plan to sign off of social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter on Wednesday, which is World AIDS Day. The participants will sign back on when the charity raises $1 million.
“It’s really important and super-cool to use mediums that we naturally are on,” Keys said in a phone interview from New York last week.
For the campaign – which also includes Jennifer Hudson, Ryan Seacrest, Kim and Khloe Kardashian, Elijah Wood, Serena Williams, Janelle Monae and Keys’ husband, Swizz Beatz – celebrities have filmed “last tweet and testament” videos and will appear in ads showing them lying in coffins to represent what the campaign calls their digital deaths.
“It’s so important to shock you to the point of waking up,” Keys said. “It’s not that people don’t care or it’s not that people don’t want to do something, it’s that they never thought of it quite like that.”
The campaign, she said, puts the disease in perspective.
“This is such a direct and instantly emotional way and a little sarcastic, you know, of a way to get people to pay attention,” said Keys, who has more than 2.6 million followers on Twitter.
The foundation, which began in 2003, will accept donations through text messages and bar-code technology, which is featured in the charity’s Buy Life campaign. Raised efforts support families affected by HIV/AIDS in Africa and India.
“We’re trying to sort of make the remark: Why do we care so much about the death of one celebrity as opposed to millions and millions of people dying in the place that we’re all from?” said Leigh Blake, the president and co-founder of Keep a Child Alive.
“It’s about love and respect and human dignity,” she added. ]

there will be no twitter or facebook updates from any of this celebrities until this idea raises $1million.
i think its not a bad idea, i mean they can raise the money by themselves but they are trying to get everyone involved.
