There's some VERY tough competition happening. Natalie Portman, Jessica Biel, Leo DiCaprio, Matt Damon and Salma Hayek are all up for awards. Both Matt and Leo are doing their part to bring attention to the clean water crisis, same with Jessica who climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro to raise awareness about Africa's water situation, Natalie hosted a charity event for the film "Hungry in America," and Salma went above and beyond when she visited Sierra Leone health clinics and breast fed a hungry baby who's mother could not produce milk.
What do Lady Gaga and Pete Wentz have in common? Not much... except that they're both up for a Do Something Award for their work this year. Gaga donated proceeds from one of her concerts to the Haiti relief fund and also raised awareness about AIDS worldwide. Pete was named the spokesman for UNICEF Tap, an organization dedicated to providing clean drinking water to children everywhere. Other musicians up for the prize are Shakira, Christina Aguilera and all three JoBros.
Who says tu can't care about how tu look and about helping people? Several high-profile fashionistas know how to balance both worlds. Tyra Banks, Nigel Barker, Victoria Beckham, Donatella Versace and Christy Turlington have all done their part to change the world this year. Nigel's powerful foto exhibit titled Haiti: Hunger and Hope is the perfect example of how to use whatever talent tu have to make a difference.
Twitter is used for all kinds of reasons: boredom, staying in touch, seeing amazing Twitpics of our fave stars, but did tu know that it's a great charity tool, too? Celebs like Ashton Kutcher, Alyssa Milano, Ed Norton and Hugh Jackman have raised tons of money in 140 characters o less. Now THAT's saying something about how easy it is to donate your time and efforts. Check out which charities they Tweeted and tu decide who tu think should win the award here:

Everyday I wake up siguiente to an angel,
más beautiful than words could say.
They dicho it wouldn't work but what do they know, cuz here's the past and we're still here today.
Never in my dreams did I think
that this would happen to me.
As I stand here before a woman,
I can't fight back the tears in my eyes.
Oh how could I be so lucky,
I must have done something right.
And I promised to amor her,
for the rest of my life...
Seems like yesterday when she first dicho hello. Funny how time flies when you're in love.
It took us a lifetime to find eachother.
It was worth the wait cuz I finally found the one.
Never in my dreams did I think
that this would happen to me.
