Random Acts of Ali Larter: Saying yes to carrots, signing shoes, visiting the United Nations, winning awards for fights, annoying Ms Magazine and singing with Wolf Blitzer

Ali Larter and compost

This fortnight, Ali Larter has been the most random – and randomly charitable – person in recorded history.

First, she’s selling off autographed shoes to help women with cancer as part of ‘Hero in Heels’s summer auction.

Then she’s off encouraging inner city kids to start or improve high school gardens – and appreciate the power of compost – as part of the Environmental Media Association’s “Yes to Carrots Garden Challenge” in Venice, California.

Then in a break from all that charity work, she’s off winning an MTV Movie Award for Best Fight in Obsessed.

As if that wasn’t honour enough, she then gets invited by the United Nations Foundation (as “an actress and women’s health advocate“) to go to the Women Deliver Conference in Washington DC (with her mum):

Said conference, which focused on global and maternal and reproductive health, managed to get Melinda Gates to cough up $1.5 billion to help women around the world.

That was $1.5 BILLION in case you missed it.

Our Ali, who ironically for a women’s health advocate, had a cold at the time, says:

How can you create the life of your dreams if you can’t plan your own family? Hundreds of thousands of women don’t have access to contraceptives… Women’s rights are human rights

But despite all that and proudly declaring herself a feminist (“I am just a woman who feels a sense of responsibility to help other girls and women”), she still managed to annoy Ms Magazine, by saying she was proud to be a Mrs. You can’t win them all, huh?

Nevertheless, did you really expect her to end the conference without doing something random? Like singing Aretha Franklin’s “(You Make me Feel Like) A Natural Woman” with special assistant to the president Gayle Smith, South African singer Yvonne Chaka Chaka and CNN’s Wolf Blitzer, for example. Of course not:

Ali Larter in Resident Evil: Afterlife

Watch out.

Oh, she’s probably only coming to get you to let you know Crazy – which is a biopic of guitar player Hank Garland who played with the likes of Roy Orbison, Patsy Cline, Hank Williams and Elvis Presley – is out on DVD soon:

Yes, she is in it, otherwise that would be truly random, wouldn’t it?

Random Acts of Ali Larter: Achieving Name-Check Status

The first season cast of Heroes

This week, Ali Larter has mostly been achieving name-check status on The Office thanks to Obsessed:

But she’s also been off shooting something – a short film possibly involving food or drink for Absolut – with Amanda De Cadenet for five days in one of the most famous houses in Los Angeles.

As if that weren’t enough, she’s also joined up with all the other members of the Heroes cast to send a farewell message to fans:

Heroes started as a story about ordinary people that tapped into the dreams and fears in all of us. It made us believe, and it inspired and entertained us on so many levels. I remember reading the pilot, and you just new it was something special. Being so drawn to Nikki… She felt so bare and daring at the same time. I felt so lucky to work with such a talented cast and crew. They always cared about the work, and always wanted to make an environment where we could soar creatively. Heroes pushed me, challenged me, and gave me some of the greatest rewards in my life. Friends and memories that I will cherish forever. There is one reason that we had that chance, and it is because of the undying support of out true fans. For that, I am forever grateful. xx, Ali

Nice.

But what am I going to watch instead of Heroes now?

Random Acts of Ali Larter: busy, busy, busy

Ali Larter in denim

Busy, busy, busy, our Ali. Not only has she been to another book launch (Derek Blasberg’s Classy – Exceptional Advice for the Extremely Modern Lady) wearing denim – ooh, radical – not only has she been off helping the Relational Center, she’s just been nominated at the MTV Awards for best fight scene and declared 91st sexiest woman in the world by FHM.

And she’s off to the Monte Carlo Television Festival on behalf of Heroes. I’d be knackered if I were her.
