This year’s Fashion Targets Breast Cancer campaign, which aims to raise more than £1m for cancer research over the next six weeks
The singer Kylie Minogue has joined actor Sienna Miller and model Claudia Schiffer in being captured by celebrity photographer Mario Testino wearing nothing but a broad grin and a silk sheet printed with the target logo of the fashion industry’s campaign against breast cancer.

The images launch this year’s Fashion Targets Breast Cancer campaign, which aims to raise more than £1m for cancer research over the next six weeks through a range of special clothing in high street, online and designer collections.

It is the first time that Minogue has joined in a breast cancer campaign since her own successful treatment five years ago. “I wholeheartedly support their efforts to raise funds for the vital work undertaken by Breakthrough Breast Cancer,” she said.

The annual fashion industry campaign was started in New York by the designer Ralph Lauren after his friend Nina Hyde, fashion editor of the Washington Post, died of the disease.

Since its launch in the UK – where more than 46,000 women are diagnosed with breast cancer every year – in 1996 it has raised more than £10.5m. From the original logo T-shirt, it has grown to include a wardrobe full of specially designed garments, with not less than 30% of the purchase price going directly to the charity.

While Minogue was being treated in 2005, one of the engagements she had to cancel was an appearance at a cancer charity ball in London. Instead she sent a defiant message: “I am a cancer patient. I aim to be a cancer survivor.”

She had to abandon the Australian leg of her Showgirl world tour when the disease was diagnosed, but was as good as her word in November 2006, taking up the tour again in a string of concerts described by one Australian critic as “nothing less than a triumph”.

Hollywood actress Sienna Miller is the latest celebrity to back the Evening Star Save the Blue Cross campaign as the stars continue to come out for the treasured animal shelter.

The 28-year-old star of films such as The Edge of Love and GI Joe, has sent a generous message of support as well as posing with one of the campaign posters.

Miss Miller, who is also a model and a fashion designer, has also been joined in the condemnation of the Blue Cross proposals to close the rescue centre in Walton High Street, Felixstowe, by ever-popular singer Des O’Connor – who is due to perform at the Spa Pavilion next month – and former Home and Away actor Bryan Wiseman.

A spokeswoman for the campaign said: “We had had some lovely words of encouragement from Sienna.

“We have been thrilled with the way celebrities have been supporting us in the campaign and we are hoping others will join us over the next few weeks.

“Their interest shows that concern for what is happening to animal rescue shelters is important to people far and wide.

“We will continue to fight to keep the Felixstowe Blue Cross open and hope the charity will be persuaded not to close it.”

Mr Wiseman, who has also been in the Australian version of Come Dine with Me, met up with Des O’Connor before he went on stage at the Performing Arts Centre in Wollongong.

“I run a foster pet scheme here in Sydney and feel really angry that they want to close the Blue Cross,” he said.

“No matter where we are in the world, we humans should be doing all we can to help animals.

“If everyone cared, we wouldn’t have homeless animals!”

Campaigners are doing all they can to put pressure on the Blue Cross, which is set to make its final decision next month.

Other celebrities who have joined the campaign include comedian Joe Pasquale, actor Brian Blessed and spoon-bending Uri Geller.

Sienna Miller models a green Robin Hood mask to encourage people to become “part of the world’s biggest bank job” in a new advertisement.

Miller, once touted to play Maid Marian in an upcoming remake of Ridley Scott’s Robin Hood, now stars in a real-life version of the tale in a campaign to tax bankers.

The GI Joe actress is joined by celebrities including Emma Thompson and singer Lemar, in supporting the Robin Hood tax.

The ‘Not complicated. Just brilliant’ campaign was launched last month with a film directed by Love Actually’s Richard Curtis and starring Bill Nighy which has received around 400,000 hits on YouTube.

It calls for a tax on the ‘sheriffs’ of the world by taking a percentage of transactions between financial institutions – but not on banks’ transactions with their high street customers.

Miller said: “A tiny 0.05% tax on bankers could raise billions for public services and tackle poverty and climate change at home and abroad.”

Ahead of the Budget, tax campaigners dressed as the ‘poor man’s hero’ were set to march through Westminster carrying their own green-coloured Budget boxes.

The ‘merry men’ were urging the Chancellor to kickstart international agreement for new financial transaction taxes by introducing a 0.005% stamp duty on all sterling transactions.

The campaign estimates the tax could raise £250bn every year worldwide, with proceeds being split between local issues, poverty and climate change.

It is supported by organisations including Oxfam, the TUC and ActionAid.

Nearly 72,000 have voted for a banking tax through the Robin Hood site and it has 130,000 facebook fans and 3,000 twitter followers.

A survey found that almost 60% of UK teens were turned on by images of celebrities puffing away.

The youngsters, both males and females aged 16 to 20, were shown images of smoking celebs and asked if their cigarette use made them less cool or more attractive.

Lilly Allen and Sienna Miller topped the list for sexiest female smokers while Russell Brand and Simon Cowell were the hottest male smoking celebs.

Despite years of campaigning by health professionals the survey revealed that teenagers still find smoking sexy.

A higher than expected 58% said smoking made the celebs more attractive, while only 42% of the respondents deemed smoking uncool.

Asked to vote for the sexiest female smoker 28% of boys voted for Lilly while 23% said Sienna. Thirty per cent of girls voted Russell Brand the hottest male smoker while 26% said Simon Cowell lit their flame.

The survey was carried out on behalf of leading electric cigarette makers SmokeStik.

Sienna Miller – who recently rekindled her romance with actor Jude Law – is unhappy about the way she is perceived, but is glad she never changed her ways to suit other people.

The 28-year-old star said: “I think if anyone documents their 20s, it’s not going to be ideal all the time. And I refused to conform. I wasn’t going to become agoraphobic. I was going to live my life.

“Of course I’ve made mistakes but I don’t really regret – I can’t really regret – anything, because that’s just part of growing up.”

While she has no regrets, Sienna admits she has become more guarded because speaking candidly about herself has caused her too many problems in the past.

She added to Britain’s Marie Claire magazine: “I’ve got an enormous mouth. No filter! I have to learn.

“Humour and sarcasm tend not to translate very well and I’d got to a point where I’d be completely joking and I caused quite a lot of drama for myself. So I’ve been trying to be a bit more guarded in what I give away because it wasn’t worth the headache it caused me at the end.”

Despite trying to be careful about how she is perceived, Sienna insists she doesn’t care what people think of her.

She said: “Ultimately you can’t obsess about what people make you out to be. I’ve made some mistakes in the past that have contributed to how I’m perceived but, to be honest, I don’t really buy into it. It doesn’t define me any more.”

Sienna Miller, Global Ambassador for International Medical Corps, makes a passionate call to action in a public service announcement (PSA) to assist survivors of the 7.0 earthquake that struck Haiti last Tuesday.

“The need left by this earthquake is enormous,” says Sienna Miller. “Thousands need medical services and time is of the essence. If the injured do not receive medical care quickly, treatable ailments like fractures and open wounds can become life-threatening. The more people who come together and offer their support, the more lives we will be able to save.”

Funds raised through the PSA (http://www.imcworldwide.org/SiennaPSA) will directly support International Medical Corps’ emergency response in Haiti and save lives by helping acquire what is desperately needed on the ground, including medicines, medical equipment, food, clean water, and other emergency relief items. Donations can be made by visiting International Medical Corps’ website – www.imcworldwide.org – and by texting HAITI to 85944.

International Medical Corps was on the ground in Haiti providing emergency medical care just 23 hours after the earthquake struck. “They are working around the clock to save as many lives as possible,” says Miller. “I hope this PSA will shed light on the incredible work they are doing in Haiti and encourage others to support it.”

In Port-au-Prince, International Medical Corps is working at the Hopital de l’Universite d’Etat d’Haiti, a 700-bed hospital, as well as supporting small health clinics throughout the city. An International Medical Corps mobile medical unit is also in Leogane, the epicenter of Tuesday’s earthquake, providing emergency medical care.

“We are so thankful to Sienna for speaking out for the people of Haiti,” says Rebecca Milner, VP of Institutional Advancement for International Medical Corps. “Every donation made as a result of this PSA will save lives on the ground in Haiti.”

International Medical Corps’ Emergency Response draws on 25 years experience in emergency settings, including last September’s earthquake in Sumatra, Indonesia, and the massive 2005 earthquake in Pakistan. Donate to the International Medical Corps by texting HAITI to 85944 or visit www.imcworldwide.org.

The PSA can be viewed at: http://www.imcworldwide.org/SiennaPSA .

International Medical Corps relieves the suffering of those impacted by war, natural disaster and disease by delivering vital health care services that focus on training, helping devastated populations return to self-reliance.
