Happy first night of Hanukkah, everyone! And for those of you not of the Jewish faith (please, indulge in latkes and gelt anyway), happy 25 days of Christmas! At least, that's the holiday Snooki is busy celebrating today. But while there are eight days of Hanukkah and apparently 25 days of Christmas, the observance most stars remembered today only occurs once a year: World AIDS Day.
Many of our favorite stars' accounts announced that they were "digitally dead," sacrificing their digital lives to raise money for Alicia Keys' charity Keep A Child Alive. While we definitely missed the hilarious commentary of Justin Timberlake, Lady Gaga, Kim Kardashian and Ryan Seacrest, one of our favorite comedians took a slightly different approach to raising awareness of AIDS prevention. "It is AIDS day. Put on a condom RIGHT NOW. Even if you're not aroused. Even if you're not having sex. Just put it on," Russell Brand ordered his Twitter followers.
Check out the rest of Wednesday's best tweets as Josh Schwartz celebrates another important holiday today and David Slade gets emotional over "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1"! Follow us @hollywoodcrush to get even more celebrity and pop culture news around the clock!
