It is that time of the day for me to post my favorite celebrity
ALS Ice Bucket Challengers.
I am going to start out with Ugly Betty’s
Michael Urie, who did a pretty good one today. Actually it is way better than pretty good. Since we are having a major drought in California and he is an actor, he acted it out! It is so brilliant on so many levels that you just have to watch what he came up with.
Like what he did there, then you will love him in his one man play
Buyer & Cellar that is touring the country.
He wasn’t the only one who was respectful of the drought, Cheri Oteri also found a way to not waste the water. I won’t tell you what she did, but I will give you a song to sing as she does it. That song is I’m Going to Wash That Man Right Out of My Hair.
Oteri wasn’t the only one to make a funny with it, John Travolta came clean about something that happened to him as he did it. He wanted to let us know he was happy to get nominated after his Frozen blunder at the Oscars because we are just not going to Let It Go.
I’m sorry John to say because I love you, but I wish you would’ve done it without a hat.
He wasn’t the only one to do it without a hat.
Ron Howard took a break from scoring his new movie at Abbey Road Studios to do it. Since he is at such a historic location, he decided to have the ice poured on him at the famous crosswalk that four men made popular all those decades ago.
Want to see Will Smith, James Cameron, Wanda Sykes, Kelly Clarkson, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Channing Tatum, Jenna Dewan, Mark Wahlberg, Kenny Rogers, Nick Cannon, Nicole Kidman, Jason Bateman, Jennifer Finnigan and Marlee Matlin to do it, then
Will Smith can take on aliens, but he couldn’t finish the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge. He ran away before Willow Smith was done pouring the ice on his head.
But that is not why I posted it, I posted it because he challenged Beyonce and Jay Z to do it together. I guess he wants to put their marriage splitting up rumors on ice!
While Smith couldn’t handle it,
James Cameron handled it like a Terminator. Even though the director had a Titanic amount freezing cold water poured on his head and crotch, he didn’t even flinch. That is until he thought the camera stopped rolling.
James Cameron wasn’t the only who made a funny with his video,
Wanda Sykes used a dummy that looked like her to try to get out of it. Luckily for us, her wife still poured the ice water on her.
While Wanda upped the funny,
Kelly Clarkson and her husband upped the cuteness! The new mom was scared to do it, but eventually she did. After she was done, she ran around declaring how cold it truly is. So I guess she had every right to be scared.
Clarkson wasn’t the only new mom to do it, Jennifer Love Hewitt did it too. She screamed so loud, she made a baby cry. Poor baby!
Now it is time to go from a new mom to a couple of a young child.
Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan did it together, and he hugged her as the water came down. Not out of love, but because he didn’t want her to run away.
While The Tatums weren’t all about love,
Mark Wahlberg and his family did one that was. Proving a family that does the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge together, will stay together!
And Mark Wahlberg took his shirt off when it was done if you needed another reason to watch.
Another person that kept it in the family is
Kenny Rogers. The singer decided that he was going to donate $1,000 instead of doing the challenge because he hates cold water. So much so, he won’t even drink it. Sadly for him, his twin sons didn’t know that and poured a bucket a water on him as a birthday present!
Happy Birthday to the Rambling Man!
From the birthday boy to the Nick Cannon who did it in his birthday suit. He learned quickly that was a mistake due to the shrinkage.
From a Nick to a Nicole, Nicole Kidman that is. She accepted the challenge and then challenged Jason Bateman to do it. As she said his name, he grabbed the cooler of ice and poured it on her. She in turn poured it on him after he accepted the challenge. To make sure there were no hard feelings between them, she tried to hug it out but that only made matters worse!
Talking about making matters worse, the ice went into a
Jennifer Finnigan‘s underwear. Not much more needs to be said.
Finally, let’s close it out with some quiet.
Marlee Matlin started out her challenge with sign language, but as soon as the ice water poured down on her, she used her voice! She really used her voice.
