And the award for best celebrity planking picture goes to...

Eliza Dushku!



Check out these awesome pictures of Eliza Dushku in Uganda, Africa.

Eliza recently traveled to Uganda to build a trauma and healing rehabilitation center for former child soldiers and war victims. Such a nice thing for her to do, especially because Eliza actually bought the land and the building supplies herself, since the center was all her idea!

Taking a break for some fun, Eliza snapped one of the greatest planking pictures ever and shared it on her Tumblr. Not sure what planking is? Read up!

Planking comes from a form of slavery. I just can't at this picture. lol
succubuzz 27th-Jul-2011 12:03 am (UTC)
really??
jenjen28 27th-Jul-2011 12:04 am (UTC)
really? how? (not trolling, genuinely curious)

Critics of the lying down game compare the game with the slave trade-era practice and manner of stowing African slaves upon the planks of a slave ship's lower hold, as illustrated in the Brookes abolitionist poster imagery.[11][12]

Apparently. I had no idea either.

Its also the name of a yoga move, which is what most people know it as tbh.
succubuzz 27th-Jul-2011 12:12 am (UTC)
I just read into it, it's actually not.

rebeccamars 27th-Jul-2011 12:23 am (UTC)
False, American didn't even start the meme.
niimaa 27th-Jul-2011 12:30 am (UTC)
yup.
prophecy_grl 27th-Jul-2011 01:25 am (UTC)
Or yoga, which came way before the slavery this would refer to. Just saying.
empirebird 27th-Jul-2011 12:01 am (UTC)

crackitycrackho 27th-Jul-2011 12:05 am (UTC)
Weh weh planking is dumb weh.

I'm entranced by op's icon.
emesieremonde 27th-Jul-2011 12:07 am (UTC)
planking...in Africa.....wow

maidenhell 27th-Jul-2011 12:31 am (UTC)
A part of this offends me...like, really? In one picture she's trying to show how "hip" she is by planking and how compassionate she is for doing charity work in Africa. Ugh.

I'm sure those dudes in the back are thinking "WTF at dis bitch."
tundrabeast 27th-Jul-2011 12:32 am (UTC)
LOL mte
emesieremonde 27th-Jul-2011 12:36 am (UTC)
I'm not a big fan of westerners coming in to build houses/schools for ~the poor Africans. All that travel money that Westerner groups spend to come to these villages could be used to pay locals who are qualified to do the work themselves. That would contribute more to the local economy then getting free help elsewhere imo :)
ohsofierce_x3 27th-Jul-2011 12:40 am (UTC)
MFTE.


Honestly though, could she not. Really. Pretty freaking please. SMDH.
shania_cares 27th-Jul-2011 12:08 am (UTC)
I always think that people are constipated when they do this, because an herbalist told me this was one of the best positions to realign the GI tract.
reallyupthere 27th-Jul-2011 12:10 am (UTC)
Dumb. She's on a wall, how is that the best? I wish people would stop planking and do something that's actually interesting.
gm_infinity 27th-Jul-2011 12:11 am (UTC)
aw sweet lol.
youbeboy 27th-Jul-2011 12:13 am (UTC)
I don't understand planking.
boltonlove 27th-Jul-2011 12:17 am (UTC)
yay, another post where people say they don't get "planking".. what is there to get? people are lying down in random places.

when did this even become planking? it was the lying down game a few months ago.

oblig ellen page did it better

luckythree3 27th-Jul-2011 12:18 am (UTC)
If your back is arched, you fail imo
boltonlove 27th-Jul-2011 12:20 am (UTC)
lol i never noticed her technique
maidenhell 27th-Jul-2011 12:32 am (UTC)
She is too fuckin' hipster for her own good.
hotcement 27th-Jul-2011 01:23 am (UTC)
i feel like ellen page and maybe even michael cera planking bullshit happened AT LEAST 2 years ago. idg why it's suddenly getting big now but it bothers me so much.
sessile29 27th-Jul-2011 06:37 am (UTC)
The trash kills me every time, I don't know why, lol.
