In this economy, to watch stars take thousands of dollars of swag at gift suites doesn’t feel right. So it’s refreshing to see a gift suite where celebrities can actually help a good cause! Access Hollywood teamed up with On 3 Productions for the 3rd Annual “Stuff You Must” Golden Globes Lounge.

Here’s how it works! For every celebrity that stops by, a donation is made to charity. In all, CVS/pharmacy donated a whopping $100,000 dollars to Best Buddies and the Lollipop Theater Network.
“I think it’s great,” Vanessa Hudgens told us. “I love being a part of it and this lounge is doing amazing things, so I’m happy to be here.”
The guilt-free shopping didn’t hurt either. CVS/pharmacy set up a Reinventing Beauty Bar where Hollywood stylist Cristophe created a fabulous updo for Stacy Keibler to wear to Fergie and Josh Duhamel’s weekend wedding. Disney darling Selena Gomez and Rumer Willis got makeovers from celeb makeup artist Laura Geller.
“Dancing With the Stars” judge Carrie Ann Inaba was excited about the lounge’s Habitual Denim booth.
“I love these jeans, the skinnies make my butt look so good!” she laughed. Now, if that isn’t some endorsement, then I don’t know what is!
”90210’s” AnnaLynne McCord and “Twilight’s” Taylor Lautner both got some bling from D’Annunzio Group International Fine Jewelry. Taylor was coy about the diamond heart necklace he picked out for his girlfriend… but not shy at all about showing off his beefed up “guns” and “six pack” to our Access cameras! Hello!!!!
Vanessa Hudgens scored boots from Koolaburra (a favorite of the actress). There were Passchal bags made from recycled inner tubes and even some super cute kiddie couture. Michael Stars, the casual wear line loved by stars Jessica Alba, Courteney Cox and Giselle Bündchen has branched out with a baby line called Mikey Stars. Being that I am eight and a half months pregnant, this was my favorite booth to check out! But even if I wasn’t expecting, the tiny versions of tank tops, leggings and dresses were ADORABLE!
To top it off, stars got to take home their goodies in stylish Carlos Falchi shopping totes. In all, there were 23 companies gifting and Selena Gomez loved the idea of combining shopping with a good cause.
“I think it’s cool to come here knowing your doing a good deed and you don’t have to feel guilty you are taking stuff,” she laughed!
