Amy Winehouse posed nude for this shoot, that will be featured in April’s Easy Living magazine, to help increase breast cancer awareness in young women. Its nice to see that someone with as many personal vices as she clearly has, would still take the time to bring attention to such an important issue.

And I guess this would be a good time to tell yall something quite personal, which is this past September I lost my aunt to a LONG(we are talking years here) battle against cancer, that originally manifested as breast cancer. In memory of her, and for her, this November I will be walking in the Susan G. Komen 3 Day event, which will travel approximately 60 miles, and requires everyone that walks to raise a minimum of $2300, which is part of why this event is soo HUGE! In 2006 they raised over $61 mil that went directly to breast cancer research. I will be on a team with my cousin(it is her mom who we are walking for), and our team name is “The Lanie Bugs”, as my Aunt’s name is DeLane and she LOVED lady bugs. And while we are only required to raise $2300 each, we would really love to raise as much as possible, and so if any of you bitch nuggets can dig deep and donate to a VERY good cause, I would be very thankful.

I f you do wish to donate, just go to this link and proceed to make a donation directly to the Susan G Komen foundation! This money does NOT go to me in any way, it goes directly to the foundation, but its just a way for them to see how much each team has raised.

So please take time to donate to this cause, as its not only personal to me, but millions of others who have lost family members, or are currently fighting the battle against breast cancer. I know a lot of people don’t have tons of money to give, but even if you can only donate a dollar, please do, as every little bit helps and adds up!
