Kate Walsh: Stand Up For Real Sex Education!

Private Practice star Kate Walsh speaks to teen peer educators, health education experts, and Planned Parenthood doctors at the “Stand Up For Real Sex Education” congressional briefing on Thursday in Washington, DC.

The briefing focused on the need for comprehensive, medically accurate, commonsense sex education programs.

Gwyneth Paltrow’s mom, Blythe Danner (pictured below), was also there to lend her support.

Thanks JJ.

Kate is admirable, intelligent, articulate, not afraid to speak up for what she thinks is right, and so distractingly beautiful. It’s really hard to keep in mind that what she is doing is very important, young people’s futures can be saved with appropriate sex education, when we are looking at her pictures.

Kate, Blythe Danner and Suzanne Whang will attend Planned Parenthood’s D.C. awards gala tonight.

lol, all this from feminists that no decent guy would touch, I think what they really mean is touch each other sex education.

Like you could get laid, Eddie Jones. Because if you could, I would bet you would rather not get VD, or a girl pregnant.

Only guys that can’t get it are against sex ed. They are just too jealous of everyone that is doing it, and if you are be careful, get informed, know what you are doing,

Thanks S. for the news I hope we get more pics.

I look up to Kate. She is kind, sweet, talented, gorgeous, smart, and funny.

Kate Walsh ROCKS!

Thx. for the pics.

Great post, S!

#9 many celebrities support many causes not just her, just cause you dont care to know what other causes celebs support doesn’t mean they dont.

She doesn’t look put together as she normally does, doesn’t look like she’s brushed her hair or done her make up.

She’s looking kind of rough here. She’s starting to show her age. I like her brown hair but red looks better.

Brainysmurf @ 03/27/2008 at 9:52 pm

Tami, I don’t think number 9 was putting down other actors or insinuating that Kate is the only actor who does worthy causes.

I think Kate looks very pretty, but I agree she does not look as if she had her hair or make-up done, but I think it’s appropriate. First of all Kate looks better without make up and second, she is not attending a fashion show or party. She is making an important speeech about a serious topic.

I really admire what Kate and Blyth Danner are doing. Kate really seems to do her part to make the world a better place. She may have been inspired from her Private Practice castmates. I believe Tim Daly has made speeches in Washington on behalf of children and Amy Brenneman has worked for women’s rights. I think they are all awsome.

The difference between Kate and some other celebs is that Kate actually gives 120% of her support.

Showing up to a red carpet charity event is great and throwing money at a charity is great as well, but that does not take effort for a celebrity. Any celeb can have their publicist sign a check. Any celeb can put on a big fancy $10,000 dress and show up at a charity event, to pretend to support a good cause.

Kate is apart of the intelligent and truly giving celebs, who not only give their money, support, name, but their voice. Their is very few celebs who speak on behalf of their causes, No I do not mean a red carpet interview speech I mean a speech infront of normal influential people.

Kate goes the extra mile. She does the leg work, not just throw a check infront of their face and put on a fancy dress.

Kate has spoken on behalf of Planned Parenthood for quite some time. She has also spoken at many different Universities in various states, including Texas, Arizona, Cali, Nevada, and tomorrow Pennsylvania, on behalf of the presidential election, Barack Obama, and encouraging the young to vote.

Of course, Kate has always been involved, in high school, she was a member of the drama club, student counsil, yearbook, and newspaper. She is also a college graduate (unlike the high school dropout celebs), who went to Japan to teach English.

Kate is a wonderful person. Beautiful on the inside and out.

She is incredible. I love her more and more everyday. I am proud to be a Kate Walsh fan. She is so my idol. She looks so cute. A natural beauty.

Thanks.

She looks damn fine to me.

Thank You Kate Walsh @ 03/27/2008 at 11:02 pm

As a teacher and mother, I applaud her support of Sex Education. A wonderful cause. This world needs more caring and giving people.

She will never read this but_Thank You Kate Walsh and Keep Up your Good Work.

She is beautiful.

I have to comment on her amazing skin. She has the best skin I have ever seen. She looks so fresh and natural. Gorgeous Gorgeous Gorgeous.

i think thats awesome! good for her!

i think thats awesome! good for her! i wonder if more celebs will join in like the kardashian sisters or something, theres 3 of them for goodness sake!

#40 How do you know that other celebs dont give a, as you so call, 120%….just cause they dont publicise that fact that they want to support and do support certain charities…doesn’t mean they dont give it their all.

I hate them, but look at Brangelina…..they give quite a lot and not just their money at appearance to certain charities….but not all of it is publicised.

Just cause all celebs dont publicise their support doesn’t mean they dont give their all. KW isn’t special in this case many celebs give it their all to support charaities….just cause you dont care to go and check the facts.

#47 You should really stop bashing people on the internet and pick up a good book specifically a Grammar and Spelling book. It would do you a world of good.

If a celeb shows their full support to a cause, it will be out there, unless the media does not care about that celebrity. Like I said, giving a check is nothing for a celebrity, it does not prove they support a cause, it proves they have money and that is it. Often charities will call up celebs publicist and ask for a donation, of course, the celeb will give money unless the celeb is selfish. However, that is not supporting, it is just giving money.

Giving your 120% support means speaking and leading your voice (like Kate does and some celebs do, including Brangelina) . This was a Congressional Briefing meaning people from the news will be there, not E!online.

Making it known, means more bringing more attention and support to the cause. It brings more money, recognition, awareness, and support to the cause.

So, you need to get your facts straight.

Guess what Kate fans?

It is OFFICAL, Kate is set to film a movie. Its a big production too. Congrats to Kate! She is on fire!

Who the hell am i bashing, seriously im just saying that your precious KW isn’t the only one who supports charity a 120% when doing something for charity, get over it dude.

U get over it, and its the internet sweetie, last time i checked my grammer and etc does not need to be perfect, especially not on this site.

who tha hell iz she?

Whatever Tami, and for the record I never said she was the only one.

Im so excited about Kate filming a movie. Production starts in New Mexico on March 31st and ends May 18th. She also starts back shooting PrP in May. She is a busy girl.

KATE IS GORGEOUS! @ 03/28/2008 at 2:08 am

Yay!!! Kate in a movie!!
Im so happy 4 her!
She so deserves all the great things happening to her!

kate is so inspiring to speak up for these amazing causes. i admire her for using her time to be productive, not just any kind of productive, but being so in such a way that aims to effect progress on other people’s lives. and yes, she’s gorgeous and funny just as much as she is smart enough to be in these public social events. i love her. thank you for these updates Jared, they really inspire!

ps congrats on the movie Kate! It’s gonna be awesome!

#37 I said “not many celebrities do that”. I was just acknowledging the fact that Kate Walsh does, since this is a thread about HER. I know I may be biased, since I like her, and am not informed about ALL the celebrities out there, but it is also a fact that a lot of news about her are about her supporting and speaking up for different causes as opposed to other celebrity news, where it’s all about who partied where and who forgot whose panties etc. (Again I am in no way insinuating that this concerns every other celebrity a part from Kate Walsh. BUT there are a lot of news, pics about famous celebrities like that.) So I am in no way suggesting (nor was I ever) that Kate Walsh is the only celebrity to do that. I just like that she does care about more things than her fame, her outfits etc.
Also thanks, Brainysmurf, for defending me. You are absolutely right.

céline @ 03/28/2008 at 6:29 am

first of all thanks to sarah and jamie for their comment on the last pics.second of all jamie how do you know everything about kate walsh?I’m a bit jealous but thankful to you(is this how you say it”thankful”I don’t have my dictionnary).kate is the best we don’t care about your stupid comments stupid people.

To use one’s celebrity to help is always a good thing. Some people just sign a check, dress up and smile for the photos. Nothing wrong with that, but some go the extra mile. Kate is in the group that really cares, and goes the extra mile, does the leg work.

Kate also serves in the Board of Advocates of Planned Parenthood, along with Blythe Danner. It’s not just the doing the stuff you see for the cameras. It’s not just choosing the causes that look nice in a Miss America speech kind of way. One of her fan sites was hacked by pro-life fanatics just prior to this event.

So yes, Kate is one of the good guys that does more than just sign a check, or dress up for the things she believes in. She is also courageous for not shying away from a very important issue just because she might get a backlash from a fanatical fringe. She is not the only one, but this is a post about Kate Walsh, not about the other ones…

Personally, I think this is such an important issue that it really drives me nuts that the people rather be petty, and jealous than discuss the real issues.

Knowledge is power, whomever denies people the knowledge is infringing on their right to decide for themselves, and on their ability to decide right. You go Kate!

#49 Thanks for the movie alert :) Been waiting for her to make a movie. Wish it will do good in the cinemas.

Any word when the shooting will start?

Mitch - I believe the movie starts starting very very soon - like next week ! It’s scheduled to begin late March and finish in early May & Kate has to be back on the PrP set late May ! Busy lady.

I love Paul Bettany so him & Kate together in a movie *sigh*

And I concur with the comments about admiring Kate. There are few celebs who are eloquent enough to speak at events on behalf of good causes. Kate is one of them. More power to her.

One busy lady indeed, today she is speaking for tha Obama campaign all day in PA:

11:30 AM Bucks County Coffee Co.
22 North Main Street
Doylestown, PA 18901

12:00 PM Speaks at an event at the home of Maureen and Chris Serpico
50 South Chapman Street
Doylestown, PA 18901

1:30 PM Speaks to students at Lafayette College
Oeschle Hall 224
Quad Drive
Easton, PA 18042

3:45 PM Speaks to staff and volunteers at Obama Levittown Campaign
7500 Bristol Pike
Levittown, PA 19057

5:00 PM Speaks to students at Bryn Mawr College
Marion Edwards Park Science 243

She does, literally, go the extra mile.
