When it comes to stepping up against domestic violence, Hollywood celebrities literally hold their breath and GO UNDER WATER to support a good cause…
In a special collaboration project between renowned conceptual underwater photographer Gisele Lubsen and Face Forward, a Los Angeles based non-profit dedicated to helping victims of domestic abuse, Hollywood celebrities are doing their part to raise awareness and put an end to domestic violence.
A-listers such as Sharon Stone, LaToya Jackson, Lotte Verbeek, Nia Peeples (Pretty Little Liars), Ashlan Gorse Cousteau (E-News), Shane Mosley (world champion boxer), Shane Moley Jr, Hanna Kat Jones, George Lazenby, Chloe Farnworth, Nelly, Karen Strassman, Bret Dalton, Jen Lilly, Cooper Harris (Young & Restless) and other celebs are donating their TIME, performances and FACE to help the campaign designed to raise awareness for domestic violence.

Part One: UNDERWATER PHOTOSHOOT – ALL IN THE NAME OF ART
World-renowned conceptual underwater photographer Gisele Lubsen donated her time for a special underwater photoshoot creating works of art in collaboration with the following Hollywood celebrities:
Nia Peeples (Pretty Little Liars)
Ashlan Gorse Cousteau (E-News)
Chloe Fanworth (Dirtymoney)
Sugar Shane Mosley (world champion boxer)
Shane Mosley Jr. (renowned boxer)
The shoot also includes captivating images of survivors of domestic abuse who were saved by Face Forward, given reconstructive surgery and other support to help them move forward.
The models and the artist go under water FREE DIVING, without an oxygen tank to create the pieces.
They are wearing RED CARPET DESIGNER Dalia Maphee’s gowns, which gives a timeless, ethereal look and feel for the images.
