This is awesome!

Online petitions really CAN make a difference!

After starting a petition with Change.org asking Victoria's Secret to consider making mastectomy bras for breast cancer survivors, Allana Maiden's voice has been heard by the lingerie giant.

Maiden, whose mother is a breast cancer survivor, was contacted by VS after her petition garnered more than 120,000 signatures.

The 27-year-old and her mom met with Tammy Roberts Myers, a rep for the company, to discuss the idea.

After the meeting, Maiden said:

Is this Leslie Mann???….or Carrie?!

Leslie was spotted at Cedar-Sinai Hospital's 8th annual Pink Party at SaMo's Hangar 8 wearing a tiered gown from Rodarte's Fall collection.

While we admire her experimentation, the dripping blood rose neckline just gives us the shudders.

Michelle Pfeiffer was also in attendance for the event benefitting the Cedars-Sinai Women's Cancer Program, and her dress was less than stellar as well.

But maybe they're just getting into the Halloween spirit?

THIS is what technology was made for!

First Warning Systems has developed a sports bra with sensors that can detect tumors in the breast six years before imaging, seven years before a mammogram, and eight years before a standard breast exam.

Wow. That's HUGE!

The bra has a 90% and higher success rate, meaning it’s pretty damn accurate!

It will be launched in Europe in 2013, and with FDA approval will be available in the US by 2014.

The initial investment is expected to be less than $1,000, which isn’t pocket change, but you can’t put a price on health!

Ch-ch-check out the video (below) to learn more about how this AH-Mayzing boulder holder works!

Beautiful!

Kellie Pickler has bid adieu to her blonde locks!

Unlike Britney Spears, the American Idol alum shaved her head to bring awareness to early cancer detection and support her best friend, Summer Holt Miller, who was diagnosed with breast cancer at only 36 years old.

Nice!
