Alyssa Milano Will Follow You on Twitter (For a Price)

Alyssa Milano, one of the most influential celebrity tweeters out there, has launched the first ever celebrity tweet auction on eBay and it's all in the name of charity. With 100% of the winning bid set to go to aHomeInHaiti (an organization that builds shelters, homes, and schools for Haitians devastated by the earthquake) this is a great chance to realize the ultimate Twitter fantasy and get yourself an A-list celebrity follower, and A-list celebrity retweet, and an A-list celebrity shout-out all while doing something good for the world. The lucky winning bidder will be followed by @Alyssa_Milano for a minimum of 90 days plus she'll give you a personal shout out using your @twitterhandle and will retweet at least one of your posts (lets hope it's a good one). The auction just started and with over 9 days left is already up to $3,050. She'll probably be the most expensive Twitter follower you ever pick up but who knows, with the kind of pull Alyssa has online this just might be your chance to 'make it big' in the Twitterverse (and make a few Haitians' days too).

Alyssa Milano Designs for NFL Fans

Alyssa Milano has an option for female NFL fans tired of wearing oversized men's logowear but still wanting to look fashionable while supporting their team: her "TOUCH" apparel and jewelry line, available at NFL Shop.

Launched in spring 2007, TOUCH, which also includes lines for the NBA and NHL, was born out of necessity, according to Milano's Web site. When Milano, an avid baseball fan, went to games, "she wanted to wear fan gear to support her team, but found that the product mix offered in the marketplace did not address her everyday fashion needs. She felt women should be able to look stylish while cheering on their favorite team. So, she partnered with G-III Apparel Group and Major League Baseball to design and distribute a line of juniors' ladies MLB apparel." And so it began.

I just learned about the line when I saw a TV ad during a Sunday night football game; it seems the NFL partnership is fairly new. This line includes 245 products that range in price from $16.99 - $89.99.

View the gallery for some examples. Most of the products are available for multiple teams.
