Carrie
Underwood's Care Bear Leads Charity Toy Auction
11/23/07
Country queen Carrie Underwood has found something new to hug in the
shape of a cuddly Care Bear she designed for charity.
And the pretty singer's 'Bling Bear' is proving to be quite the
Christmas must-have as her teddy competes with stuffed toys given
makeovers by Faith Hill, Cindy Crawford, Daisy Fuentes and Lara Flynn
Boyle.
Bosses at CharityBuzz who are offering up the decorated Care Bears, as
part of an online auction, expect American Idol star Underwood's teddy to
be the headlining item, when the auction ends on 30 November (07).
Internet bidding was expected to end this week (ends23Nov07) but
charity bosses have decided to extend the sale after receiving new Care
Bears from Courteney Cox and The
Hills' Lauren Conrad.
In the certificate that comes with her rhinestone-clad country bear,
Underwood reveals she played stylist to the cuddly toy on the same day her
last album was released.
She writes, "She (bear) represents everything that sparkles and
shines."
