Scarlett Johansson, Minnie Driver Spoof Fashion In Oxfam Video


First Posted: 12/09/10 03:45 PM ET Updated: 05/25/11 07:20 PM ET


Starlets Minnie Driver and Scarlett Johansson have teamed up for a comical video to promote Oxfam America's gift-giving initiative this holiday season.

The organization works to end poverty by providing in-need families with animals, plants and skill sets necessary to empower them through sustainable jobs. The new Oxfam Collection makes shopping for animals, from alpacas to goats, hip and chic.

WATCH:


Shoppers can purchase gifts like animals for families, books for children or even art supplies for schools through the Unwrapped website.

Donors can support the organization by buying gifts from the Oxfam Collection or making a general donation to Oxfam.

Love this commercial - Oxfam is a highly rated charity organization that does great work. Couldn't hurt to stop by their web site catalog and look around. www.oxfamamerica.org

Frankly, my dear, I don't own a goat.

What is this? A bunch of dry jokes, one after the other.

An astoundingly low threshold for "hilarious" is at work here.

Goats are beautiful and gentle creatures. How could anyone accuse them of being destructive?

The fact that they are is mentioned in one (or several) of the Wikileaks leaked cables. Furthermore, the Iranian news agency Ishtar confirmed the existence of a secret goat program so destructive, it could end mountainsides as we know it.

In the veterinary field, there is an old joke:
'What fencing can contain goats?' / An aquarium'
Speaking from past experience: you can often come out of a barn call to find the client's goats (if resident) standing at different points on your PortaVet (veterinary box put in payload deck of pickup) -REGARDLESS of sincere client efforts to contain them.
'Climb every mountain (especially the new ones that just arrived)' seems to be their credo.
That all being said- they're still wonderful! lol

Minnie Driver is improving greatly with age. BTW goats are very destructive to the environment. Sorry Peaches.

Not really. They are being used for brush clearing all over the world, in organized fashion, and their work is much more green than using machines for the same work.

They are also part of an ancient and highly sustainable culture of dairy/meat/fertilizer production.

Love this. Scarlett and Minnie are hilarious, but my favorite is the GOAT. I'm giving the goat as a present to a few friends this holiday season. Check it out at www.OxfamGifts.com.

Both of these women are talented adults who've had leads in several movies. Don't you think "starlets" is a bit demeaning?

The notion that celebrities can be demeaned is a redundancy on par with "dirty sewage."

Yeah, and I really hope Scarlett shows them in a movie or magazine sometime soon.

Perhaps, but Minnie strikes me as a bottom.
