No, it’s not for possessing the most gorgeous cleavage at 45. It’s for a more noble cause. Liz has set a new world record for illuminating the most historic landmarks in 24 Hours as part of a new Estee Lauder breast cancer awareness initiative. She toiled 24 hours across Thursday and Friday to help illuminate 39 historic monuments in pink lights.
Contactmusic reports,
The British beauty has been the cosmetics company’s celebrity breast cancer champion for the past 15 years and for 24 hours across Thursday (30Sep10) and Friday (01Oct10) she helped turn monuments around the globe pink. Hurley was in New York to flick the switch on the Empire State Building’s lights, and other landmarks to be turned pink included the Sydney Opera House in Australia and the Taj Mahal Palace & Tower Hotel in India.
A total of 39 buildings were lit up – enough to gain the Guinness World Record for Most Landmarks Illuminated for a Cause in 24 Hours. And Hurley is delighted with the accolade and awareness drive.
Now this is one world record that’s worth a big round of applause. Congratulations Liz! You’ve got every reason in the world to celebrate your womanhood… and the new Guinness Record.
