If it just us, or is J.K. Rowling becoming even more inspirational??

Her story in becoming the writer she is today is astounding, and now that she's at an amazing level, she loves doing her part in giving back — she just announced a $16M donation to Edinburgh University to fund a clinic for multiple sclerosis and neurodegenerative disease.

That's not it, though. A new eBook version of her massively successful Tales of Beedle the Bardcompanion book is set to launch!

We're glad that Yoko Ono is carrying on John Lennon's policy to reach out and help others. By standing with the Hard Rock International and WhyHunger for IMAGINE THERE’S NO HUNGER campaign for the 5th year in a row, his beautiful message can live on!

If you don't know, it's a global campaign to combat childhood hunger and poverty through the backing of sustainable agriculture education and feeding programs for children and families in need.

Now THAT's how you figure out a long-term solution to hunger!

Getting her 1-year-old daughter Willow all dressed up for Halloween must've gotten Pink thinking about her past costumes.

Honey Boo Boo Child may be America's newest reality obsession, but for how much longer?

If it was up to the 7-year-old reality star herself, probably about a week.

Little Alana Thompson is getting so tired of being on television that she fell asleep next to Dr. Drew while appearing on his HLN show yesterday.

She let out an audible moan upon returning from a commercial break, then literally started snoring when the Celebrity Rehab doc asked if it was difficult to be on the tube all the time (above).

Judging by her behavior, yes, it is.

We think she's ready to go home and enjoy her childhood again. She's given us all so much … we think she deserves that now.
