Now the original article of the Hellomagazine!

Andrea and Caroline Corr joined fellow Irish beauties helping to raise funds for a good cause at the Dining To Make A Difference charity gala in Dublin on Thursday. Andrea, who was recently voted hellomagazine.com's Most Attractive Woman of the Year, was in good company as she rubbed elbows with fellow Emerald Isle stunners Miss World 2003 winner Rosanna Davidson and actress Victoria Smurfit.

Rosanna shared the night out with her boyfriend James Montgomery and parents Chris and Diane De Burgh. The soiree was in aid of the International Community for the Relief of Starvation and Suffering (ICROSS) - an ongoing project working to eliminate starvation and suffering in Africa.

Andrea has started 2005 on a winning note. After taking home hellomagazine.com's Most Attractive Woman honour, she went on to scoop the best actress in a comedy gong at the Colorado Film Festival for her role as Anne in the musical comedy The Boys From County Clare.

Andrea donates shoes!
By Hayley Carlin - 29th January 2005

Andrea Corr and more than 40 other musicians, actors, designers and footballers, have joined together to support a campaign to fight Multiple Sclerosis. Each celebrity has donated footwear to be auctioned in the "MyShoes" celebrity auction. All shoes will be signed or have a "Step Into MyShoes" certificate of authentication.

The shoe auction will be held on eBay during London Fashion week beginning on February 13 and all cash raised will go towards helping MS sufferers.

Marla Madison has lived with the disease for more than 20 years and is running the campaign from her home in Monsell Road, Finsbury Park, North London.

She said: "This is a fun and interesting way of raising awareness and funds in the fight against a very serious condition. MS is still incurable and is a very uncertain disease that can leave people unable to walk or even see in extreme cases."

"We chose shoes to highlight MS for a number of reasons. Firstly, the group most interested in shoe fashions - 20 and 30-something women - is also the group most likely to be diagnosed with MS. Secondly, difficulty walking is one of the most common symptoms of the disease. And thirdly, just as shoes come in a myriad of colours, styles and fashions, so do the symptoms of MS. No two people with MS ever have the same experience."

For further information, see the MyShoes website.

Finally the auction of the celebraty shoes is closed, here's the article from corrsonline.com, see how much mooney was bidden for Andreas shoes :

Andrea's £2,350.00 shoes
By Hayley Carlin - 23rd February 2005



A while back we reported that Andrea would be donating a pair of shoes to the MyShoes Campaign To Fight Multiple Sclerosis. Andrea alongside many other celebrities gave shoes, to be auctioned on eBay to raise money for this cause.

The auction began on February 13th and had been running for 10 days, and ended tonight. The shoes were sold for a whopping £2,350.00 to winning bidder, "corrmark". The shoes gained huge interest and had 77 bids altogether, with a start price of just £25. It could well be true that Andrea's pair of shoes raised the most money out of all shoes on auction.

The "classically Andrea," black Yves Saint Laurent shoes, from the Rive Gauche collection were signed by Andrea with a silver pen. To find out more about the charity, www.myshoes.org.uk
