Nom de Guerre

Gorillaz igned a special military helmet to be auctioned off for the War Child charity. The cartoon band's effort is available to bid for now at ebay.co.uk. It is the only one of its kind in existence.

Gorillaz' Russel said of the initiative, in conjunction with the movie 'Jarhead': "War Child do a fantastic job of helping the victims of conflict, providing the exact kind of long-term support that children in these areas so desperately need. But they do need funds in order to continue their work. So in an effort to raise money for the organisation I've drawn a dead duck on the side of one of these helmets." (article at NME.com)

It's funny how sometimes fictional people can be more generous than most real ones.
