Christina Grimmie

In December of last year, we had the pleasure of hosting The Voice contestant Christina Grimmie inside our headquarters. This talented soul chatted with us about her amazing charity work and performed an exclusive version of her hit, “With Love.”

Christina tragically passed away this year after she was shot while signing autographs outside of a concert in Florida. Our thoughts and prayers remain with her and her family. We are so honored to have had the pleasure of getting to know Christina.

Larry Bakman

Judge Larry Bakman leaves his seat on the syndicated television series, “Hot Bench,” to educate children and teens in Los Angeles about the dangers of gangs and drug addiction through the organization, New Directions for Youth.

“Recognizing the problem allows you to get inside the minds of the parents and the children who you think you can save, who you can educate and at least give them options on what they can do to avoid falling into that culture.”

Danielle Moinet AKA Summer Rae

She’s a ray of arrogant sunshine in the WWE ring but when she’s not body slamming opponents, Danielle Moinet (aka Summer Rae) is actively involved in charity, specifically her family’s organization, the Dean Thomas Moinet Foundation.

Moinet also works with the USO, Special Olympics and the WWE’s Be a STAR anti-bullying campaign.

Susan Holmes McKagan

We caught up with the lovely Susan Holmes McKagan backstage at Style Fashion Week Los Angeles 2016. The blonde beauty, who is married to Duff McKagan of Guns N’ Roses, walked the runway for couture designer Farah Angsana in support of her Life Foundation, which advocates for the homeless and orphans in Indonesia.

In addition, Susan talked about her swimwear line, which she uses to raise money for various causes.

“I have a creative outlet while bringing awareness to various causes that are near and dear to my heart,” she said.

Case Keenum

Fresh off their return to Los Angeles the NFL’s Rams are already scoring with residents of the city of angels thanks to their charity work.

Starting quarterback Case Keenum and his teammates suited up and took to the red carpet in support for Make-A-Wish Greater Los Angeles as part of the Inaugural Los Angeles Rams Night for Wishes.

For Keenum, his charitable work doesn’t end with Make-A-Wish.

“A big part of my life and my story growing up was Fellowship of Christian Athletes,” Keenum said. “I do sports camps in the summer…it’s a big part of what I do and I think there’s a lot of good people out there that could use your support,” he added.

Todd Gurley

Todd Gurley is one of the most talented running backs in the National Football League but his skills extend far beyond the field of play.

Thanks to the relocation of the Rams, Gurley is now a member of the Los Angeles community and he’s giving back with his teammates through the Greater Los Angeles chapter of Make-A-Wish.

Eastwood Ranch Foundation

Alison Eastwood’s father, legendary actor and director Clint Eastwood, made a name for himself starring in some of the greatest westerns of all time and now the actress is making her mark by hitting the ranch.

A staunch advocate for animal rights, Alison co-founded the Eastwood Ranch Foundation, which assists in the welfare and rescue of animals through campaigns, events and education.

Good Celebrity caught up with Eastwood at the 2nd Annual Art for Animals event in June 2016.

“I am inspired by the fact there is such a need to help animals out there,” Eastwood said.

Joanna Krupa

When she’s not walking the runways, Poland-born model Joanna Krupa is lending her support for animal rights. Good Celebrity caught up with Krupa at Alison Eastwood’s 2nd Annual Art for Animals fundraiser in June 2016.

“All the animal people have to stick together,” Krupa said. “Whenever I’m in town and there’s an animal related event of course I’m going to come support it.”

Krupa also dished on her animal rescue, Angels for Animal Rescue.

“We try to do whatever we can, one animal at a time,” she said.

Bojana Novakovic

If there is an actress whose name matches her personality it’s, Bojana Novakovic. Pronounced BOY-YANA, her name is just fun to say!

Always good for an interview, the Serbian-born actress stopped for a chat on the red carpet of the Eastwood Ranch Foundation’s 2nd Annual Art for Animals fundraiser.

Among the topics were her faux fur attire, goat photography skills, and her next visit to Nepal (which may or may not include a climb of Mt. Everest…at least to the base camp).

The post Good Celebrity Interviews WWE Diva Summer Rae (Danielle Moinet) appeared first on Positive Celebrity News, Good Celebrity Gossip, Positive Entertainment News | Good Celebrity.

In the ring, Moinet’s character Summer Rae is known for her entertaining entrances, moves like Indian Death Lock and her finisher Summer Crush, and her diabolical attitude.

The blonde beauty told GC founder Alex Ribble that there are plenty of misconceptions about the correlation of Summer Rae and her real personality.

“My character is very arrogant, very self-absorbed, super mean. She thrives on other people’s weaknesses,” she said.  

“It’s a fun character to play. I think it’s something that maybe in situations I’ve always wanted to be like that. More aggressive, more outspoken and I’m just not like that at all so it’s fun to play that character.”

Moinet continued, “I feel like you should treat people how you want to be treated. So on different social media platforms like Snapchat or Instagram, people can see my real personality.”

Adding, “The biggest compliment I get is when people say, ‘You’re not like your character.’”

She believes that having her role as a sassy Diva is a good lesson for kids to understand that what they see on television and in the world of entertainment isn’t always the truth. It’s purely entertainment.

One way to know Moinet is a kind-hearted person is through her involvement with DTM Foundation.

As previously reported by Good Celebrity, Moinet’s sister, a developmental therapist, created the North Carolina-based nonprofit to help families taking care of terminally ill children.

“A lot of times, when families have a terminally ill child, they’re separated,” Moinet said. “One parent has to stay home while the other goes to the hospital and tends to the sick child.”

She added that they found holes in the resources provided to families because hospitals can only do so much. As a result, DTM Foundation was born and helps families with food, living arrangements, and emotional support.

A newer addition to DTM Foundation is Comfort Cooks. Moinet said that volunteers shop, gather, and drop off food to families in the UNC and Duke hospitals. The latter deed is Moinet’s favorite.

“It’s nice to just see the smiles on their faces,” she said.

In addition to her family’s’ organization, Moinet teams with the WWE to support Be a Star, an anti-bullying campaign, along with the Special Olympics and the US Military.
