7 celebrity ice bucket challenges of note

NEW YORK - Dozens of celebrities have helped fuel the success of the ice bucket challenge for ALS. Here are a few examples:

• Rocker Dave Grohl and his band, The Foo Fighters, spoofed the blood dump scene from the horror movie "Carrie."

• Actor James Franco, who seems to enjoy provoking conversation, took his ice bucket challenge wearing only a T-shirt.

• Kermit the Frog, not to be outdone by James Franco, declared he was the first to take the ice bucket challenge in the buff.

• Vogue editor Anna Wintour ditched her steely image to get her hair wet. Well, a little wet, anyway.

• Tom Cruise, who never seems to back down from a challenge, sat through not one but eight buckets of water being dumped on his head.

• Gabrielle Union tried to take the challenge wearing a shower cap to protect her hair, but someone off-camera pulls it off before she gets doused in water.

• Lindsay Lohan reached high when she took the challenge by nominating Prince Harry to join in. So far, no word from the royal.
