OlderGerard Butler: Elephant Project Proud
Gerard Butler poses with an elephant stuffed animal in support of The Elephant Project, an organization to raise money and awareness for the Alzheimer’s Association.
The organization was started by David Niederhoffer, now 19, after his grandfather passed away from Alzheimer’s disease. There is a phrase that says “elephants never forget,” and in the fight against Alzheimer’s disease, David is striving for those affected by the disease to “never forget.”
Here’s how it works: Celebs pose with an elephant beanie baby and sign a special Elephant Project card, which are then auctioned off to raise money to fight Alzheimer’s disease. Each auction package comes with an 8″×10″ picture of the celebrity and the elephant, a signed card from that celebrity, and an elephant beanie baby. Gerry, Jennifer Garner, Lady Gaga, Brandon Flowers, Ashley Tisdale, and many more have participated in the project.
Currently, over $15,500 has been raised for Alzheimer’s care, research and support! The Fall 2009 round of Elephant Project auctions began Saturday with 34 auctions live until Tuesday, October 13th. Get in your bids at eBay.com!

Leaving the restaurant with friends? Looks like they are coming in and blonde is the restaurant hostess.
Overexposure? Never. Keep them coming. I hope there are pics from tonight’s big doings. He likely will be all prettied up.
What big doings tonight?
The premiere, u doof. LOL
Yep less Gerry exposure will make him a bigger star though.
Yes that is one of their host staff.
He was there with a bigtime movie director - all business.
Great place to see and be seen and EAT!
@@4:
LA premiere of Law-Abiding Citizen.
like Ted said, Gerry is boring.
but in a good way!
i dont buy ANY of the stuff that has been said about him being a womanizer.
I DO buy that certain women never got to see him in live action naked (when they thought they WOULD) lol so instead decided to find childish ways to trash him endlessly.
We love gerry - the fans do!

I totally agree. Exposure related to work is good. Constant pics of him looking sloppy and/or picking his nose is not good.
It makes him look like an attention ***** instead of a dedicated actor.
I tried to bid on that elephant,but too high already, GB all exposure is good get a couple more elephants going the charity is a noble one!
I just checked the bids. Others have one bid or no bids, Gerry’s up to 16 bids and $325 for the elephant. The fangirls want that elephant.
He’d better hope his next movie doesn’t bomb. Good charity though.
@overexposure:
Is Gerry really the biggest star in Hollywood right now?
Thats what they are calling him…..wow.
Funny how allll these chicks he’s allegedly been with - not a one has a story?? For the bloids even ???
Hahahahahhaha….how sad?? Now, when it would make sense…no one has a story.
If Gerry never called sweetie, just enjoy the fact that 1) you got a smile or flirt and 2) you got him to ask for your number to get away from you. Stop wishing he wanted more.
PYT,Norwegians, KimK, Kelly Bensimon etc etc.
I would give my husband and his new car to have a long kiss with tongue this man….god.
lol

Is there a way to follow the red carpet? Online?
Twitter will proba have the best coverage…TMZ.
He is going to walk the carpet with Jamie and F Gary :-)
@crikey #6. I can’t see calling someone “u doof” because s/he doesn’t know the LA LAC premiere is tonight. I don’t think I did either. Or if I did I forgot. I won’t get to go anyway so why does it matter? Some of us enjoy reading these posts and posting ourselves, mainly to get information, share our opinions and hear what others think, but have busy lives of our own, aren’t so obsessed we know every single thing that’s going on in stars’ lives and when. The name calling, mud slinging, foul language (even if edited with asterisks and such) and bashing of both celebrities and other posters on some of these sites gets objectionable and eventually drives me away from sites. (I know. I know. I sound prissy as hell. Somebody will say, good riddance, or something ruder. Fine. ;)
@overexposure #10 Right on. I wanted him to be the actor he seemed to be too, not the dismaying caricature of the attention-seeking, self-indulgent HW celebrity that we keep getting.
@Lori #9. Not sure of your theory but I don’t know the man, have never met him and am willing to keep an open mind. We keep getting various versions of that same song, that the only women who spew these “rumours” about his wh*ring ways are those he turned down. I dunno. Where I live, most people I know, even women, don’t seem to know who GB is, unless you prod their memory with POTO or something and get, “Oh yeah.” For the rest, they don’t care. And I don’t live in LA or NYC but don’t live in Hicksville either.
I like going to different sites, about GB’s films or anyone and anything else I’m interested in, where people share legitimate info and opinion and correct each other about facts in an intelligent and civil way. I learn much and hope I enlighten someone occasionally with what I know. People criticize you, but don’t attack with verbal nonsense. The Internet is an incredible resource. I’d like to see it kept that way, not end up being regulated for being out of control.
Okay, Miss Prissy shuts up. I hope StinkyLouise, ManLESSton, Amen, Pafan and other faves show up, but after LAC opens is okay. Back to work.
I am SO not reading #18’s ‘Colin Powell’ address but I just wanted to say as a fan I so hope he gets a good one going with this LAC deal!!!
Keep it real!
That’s what this one media outlet just called him and Im dying bc they are the same age. LOL
I do not think GB is 39. Prob 43.
I enjoyed Gerard Butler, so much, in the movie called,
“The Ugly Truth.”
I think that he is a very good actor.
I guess that makes me a fan.
I also saw him in “Gamer.”
I even saw him in a DVD of “300.”
Yes. I am definately a fan.
(His body seems like the type,
that when he enfolds you in his arms,
you do not want to even THINK about wanting him to stop holding you
in those strong and comfortable arms.)
Keep the pics coming, please, JJ. Hope you get some good ones at tonights LAC premiere and the afterparty if there is one.
adam brody signed product is alsopart of this,but jared will not mention his even for a good cause,i wish i have the money to buy adam brody signed elephant.
@curious cat: ITWAY. Although I really backhanded a troll earlier, most of the time I try to be civil.
.
I agree with your observations of Gerry’s career. I first discovered him in Dear Frankie and had my own “oh sh!t” moment when I realized he had been in POTO. Although many of his films haven’t been the best I’ve ever seen, I enjoy watching him.
.
I also think he is sexy as hell but have no delusions of meeting him or anything else.
.
The speculation of what he does outside of his work can be fun, but needs to be thoughtful and light-hearted. After the poster outed by Star magazine for unknowingly confirming a false story run in their rag, I try not to use any names and not to specify relationships other than professional. If I do mention anyone in his personal life it is only by first name only.
.
I like that Gerry is so open to doing charity work. I watched that interview that Mr. Giggles (IIRC) posted on an earlier thread. He loves to be involved in doing good. I say, good for him. To be involved in a 9/11 fundraising for a non-American is commendable.
.
As you can tell by me responding, I am not hanging by the Twitter to hear all the details of his premiere. I am just hoping for the best for this movie for him. I think he can be a brilliant actor under the right circumstances. If all goes well with LAC, he may get more chances.
What time is the premiere? PST I know but is it actually going on right now?
