Milano Fronts for Neglected Tropical Diseases

Posted Jun 28th 2007 12:58PM by TMZ Staff

Alyssa MilanoAlyssa Milano has been named the Global Network's Ambassador for the control of something called Neglected Tropical Diseases. Time to get that rash you got on spring break checked out!

The 34-year-old hottress has taken on the role of raising awareness of NTDs. No glove no love?! What are NTDs you ask? They are 13 chronic and disabling bacterial and parasitic infections known as "diseases of poverty," which afflict about one billion people around the world. Who knew? Exactly!

Milano is so committed to the cause that she even donated $250,000 of her own dollars toward buying safe, effective and inexpensive drugs to combat NTDs.

If only Paris would do the same for claustrophobia!

9. About time one that these stars finally do something to help out in United States instead of spending their money in other countries, when we need help here. Now if we can get these stars to start buying babies here that need to be adopted, boy wouldn't make a difference.

11. Becca, If you're reffering to her commercials she has changed her hairstyle. She did that all the way thru Charmed. IMHO the one she has now really doesn't suit her but she'd never listen to me.

13. I kinda lose respect for actors/actresses who do nude scenes. I don't see why she did what she did when she was already doing good as an actress.

14. Have tropical diseases been neglected by their mommies?

Will there be a telethon?

Shouldn't we be more concerned that the families of our soldiers overseas are being neglected by the Department of Defense?
