NEW YORK, March 10 (UPI) -- British rockers Duran Duran are auctioning a celebrity-signed soccer ball to raise funds for victims of the South Asia tsunami.
Shore Fire Media in New York issued a statement Thursday saying the soccer ball will be offered on eBay through March 18.
The band's members -- Simon Le Bon, Nick Rhodes, John Taylor, Andy Taylor and Roger Taylor -- first displayed the ball on British television in January. They later announced on ABC's "Good Morning America" the ball would be put up for auction with proceeds being donated to the charitable organization GlobalGiving.
In addition to Duran Duran, other signers included Gwen Stefani, Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne, Alicia Keys and Oscar-winners Cate Blanchett and Robin Williams.
The ball was also signed by Andre 3000 of OutKast, Robert Smith of The Cure, Maroon 5, super model Naomi Campbell, rapper/producer Kanye West and actors Colin Farrell and Dennis Hopper.
