Lily Cole

Yeah, I'm always glad to see well-known people using their status to support different causes, rather than promoting themselves.

Great that she's using her fame for an appropriate issue! I respect that!

i have a local Syd mag on her when she was here from my friend. will scan later when have time. oh and any scanning tips?? i've never scanned a mag in my life........

gosh it's been four weeks since i said that and finally i've gotten round to scanning it!!

please excuse my non-existent scanning skills. now i realise how scanning is really not that easy...and it didn't help that my friend spilled her lunch over the mag - the cover's iffy (it was the best that i could get it to). it also didn't help that the mag was too big for my scanner and i had no idea how to make it to a smaller size when scanning or whatever , so a little bit of the last column of the interview has been cut off. it's also kinda out-of-date because Lily did it when she was in Aus and that's been a while so yeah.

without further ado:

*scanned by me

COLE ATTACKED FOR 'HYPOCRITE' CHARITY WORK
2006-06-01 10:41:29 -
English supermodel LILY COLE has come under fire for supporting human rights charity Amnesty International, after starring in advertisements for controversial diamond firm De Beers.
The 18-year-old redhead has joined Amnesty's new 'Protest The Human' campaign and appears in ads holding a placard reading, 'Stop Corporate Abuse'.
Fellow human rights charity Survival are stunned by Cole's latest project due to her De Beers connection, because they claim the jewellers have been evicting Botswana bushmen to make way for diamond mines in the African nation.
Survival director STEPHEN CORRY says, "It's a little bit hypocritical of Lily to be getting cosy with Amnesty whilst she's been endorsing De Beers."

Thats rubbish though, because Lily has refused to work with de Beers again. Perhaps when she began her endorsement with De Beers she was naive with regards to the companies conduct.

that's what i thought too. Wasn't Survival the group that publicly suggested Lily to stop working for de Beers?

yeah these people are just being ridiculous, they're attacking her because she joined a "rival" human-right association®, i also think lily should probably just stick to modeling right now, and keep politics for in a couple a years, she's just 18, she will be manipulated very easily.
