* MY LITTLE PONY GETS A CELEB MAKEOVER Celebrities including
Courteney Cox,
David Arquette and
LeAnn Rimes have designed a series of little girls' favourite toys, My Little Pony, to celebrate 25 years of the iconic brand. The My Little Pony Project: 25 Ponies for 25 Years gallery exhibition took place in
New York last month (18Sep08) and showcased all of the celebrities' designs. The toys are now in the middle of an auction by CharityFolks.com in support of Give Kids The World Village, a non-profit organisation that provides week-long vacations to Central Florida for children with life-threatening illnesses. Cox and Arquette's design features a gold and
Black zebra print motif, and Rimes' shows a hippy heart design on the back of the toy. Other celebrities who contributed to the project are:
