Hey everyone! I have been so so busy at school but I am on break now, and I know I have a ton of stuff to do so I am starting small right now. I am adding Matt’s infamous acceptance speech at the Oscars. I have rewatched it a whole bunch of times and I love it!! I am sure that it will allways be a classic Oscar moment, they both are so worthy, it was just perfect. I think its about time, we had it in our Media Vault. A small note, I have deleted a TON of spammers in the vault so if you accidentally got deleted (and you are not a spammer), then I am sorry please re-register. Also, I am adding an ITN Interview where Matt “responds” (deadpan) to Jimmy’s Ben Affleck video. LOL

Enjoy!

Washington, Mar 14 : Celebrity donations are not a new thing in Hollywood, and now it was the turn of a charity co-founded by George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon and Don Cheadle to put their money for a noble cause.

The charity, known as ‘Not On Our Watch’, dished out a whopping 500,000 dollars to the United Nations World Food Program to combat the food problem in Darfur, Sudan.

U.N.’s food aid agency will be utilising this amount to prevent hunger in the troubled Darfur region of Sudan.

“Without immediate additional funding, humanitarian aid in the region will be crippled,” Contactmusic quoted Clooney, as saying in a statement.

‘Not On Our Watch’ has already raised more than 9.3 million dollars for Darfur, and donated 1 million dollars to the World Food Program last year (07).

Clooney has recently filmed a documentary about the crisis in Sudan last year and has certainly become a strong supporter for action against the genocide.

LOS ANGELES, March 13 (UPI)—U.S. celebrities Ben Affleck, Matt Damon, Oliver Stone and John Legend have signed on to promote the “Obama in 30 Seconds” TV ad contest.

The competition invites supporters of U.S. presidential hopeful Barack Obama to create 30-second spots demonstrating what inspires them about the senator’s candidacy.

MoveOn said it will then buy time to run the winning ad on national television.

“Since creative and grassroots energy has helped power Barack Obama’s campaign from the start, this contest is a great way to deliver that message of hope to voters in Pennsylvania and across the nation,” Eli Pariser, executive director of MoveOn, said in a statement.

“MoveOn’s ‘Obama in 30 seconds’ ad contest is a chance for everyone, from aspiring filmmakers to armchair pundits, to raise their voices to put Obama over the top and help make history,” Affleck added.

“I think this contest is a powerful way for ordinary citizens to be involved in an extraordinary moment in our history,” said Legend. “I’m thrilled to be a part of it.”

The ads, which can be submitted at http://www.obamain30seconds.org/ starting March 27, will be judged by a celebrity panel that includes Affleck, Damon, Legend, Stone, Moby, Steve Buscemi, Eddie Vedder and others.
