Have your eyes snapped with Sony Ericsson

Celebrity photographer Jillian Edelstein has snapped the best of them including Kate Moss, Simon Pegg and Bill Nighy (pictured). Now she’s working with Sony Ericsson on a new project called Eyes Wide Open to promote the launch of its latest Satio handset on Vodfaone.

The idea is simple: to capture images of 121 eyeballs in only 12.1 hours. Sony Ericsson is searching for people from all over the country and all walks of life to take part in the project.

Amplichoir – sing Lollipop and win MTV EMA VIP tickets, maybe

Dell and MTV have joined together to produce Amplichoir. The idea is simple. You record yourself singing Lollipop (the music used in the Dell adverts of course) using a webcam and microphone and you can see and hear yourself by clicking on a thumbnail on the home screen.

Billed as the world’s biggest karaoke, it’s so far attracted around 500 people to participate. The incentive for people to take part – apart from the chance of singing a naff, but very catchy, song out of tune? The chance to win VIP tickets to the European MTV Music Awards and afterparty in Berlin on November 5th.

The prize includes flights and accommodation for you and a friend, stretch limousine transfers to and from the airport and awards, champagne and flowers in your room when you arrive, dinner for two at Fischers Fritz (the only 2 Michelin Star restaurant in Berlin), a relaxing massage in the Regent Spa, make-up/hairdresser to get you looking good for the awards and after-party, and an EMA Award presented to you on the red carpet. So what are you waiting for? Time to dust off that miicrophone and croon with the best of them.
