Our hero and pal Doris Day is having a special auction this week on ebay to raise money for her animal foundation. The ever youthful Doris, a magnificent legend who lives in paradise– Carmel, California– is relentless in helping the animal world. She’s auctioning off just a few rare signed 2013 calendars on ebay at http://tinyurl.com/cad4hxb

You can also see a video from all of Doris’s celebrity friends at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bk76Bcw9CFI

Doris keeps raising money and doing good deeds at www.dorisday.com, where you can donate to her foundation and buy a copy of her new album, My Heart. You can also hear an audio message from Doris for the holidays.

Last winter I had the honor of interviewing Doris for Parade magazine. She hadn’t done a full interview in about 20 years. I hope we can do more soon. Here are the links:

Donate to the Doris Day Animal Foundation before the end of 2012– and let’s hope Doris gets an honorary Academy Award this coming year. It’s been a long time coming.

Showbiz411 is now in its 13th year of providing breaking and exclusive entertainment news. This is an independent site, unlike the many Hollywood trades that are owned by one company. To continue providing news that takes a fresh look at what's going on in movies, music, theater, etc, advertising is our basis. Reader donations would be greatly appreciated, too. They are just another facet of keeping fact based journalism alive.
Thank you
