Sounds intriguing right? Were they fighting women with different political views? Or maybe fighting zombie women? Alas, the headline is simply a bad one:
LOS ANGELES - What do Jessica Alba, Katie Holmes and Rosario Dawson have in common? All are A-list actresses, and all support V-Day, a global effort to end violence against women and girls.
Founded by Eve Ensler (of "The Vagina Monologues" fame), V-Day celebrated its 10th anniversary Thursday at a star-studded private luncheon sponsored by Glamour magazine. Joining Alba, Holmes and Dawson were Val Kilmer, Kerry Washington, Ali Larter, Gina Gershon, Judith Light and Jennifer Beals.
Since its inception, the anti-violence V-Day effort has reached 119 countries and raised $50 million to increase awareness about violence against women.
"It literally started from one woman's voice ... and it's exponentially grown," said Dawson, a V-Day board member who was inspired by her mother and grandmother's political activism. "It's about embracing being a female and reclaiming that."
Dawson performed a poem about New Orleans, calling it "the vagina of America."
Alba, who made her stage debut performing "The Vagina Monologues," also offered a poem at the luncheon. But first she warned the crowd that she was "popping out" of her dress.
"If you guys don't know, I'm pregnant," she said, as her fiance, Cash Warren, beamed. "You're all women. I think you understand your breasts are engorged and your stomach is getting bigger by the second."
