1302199081_katy 290

Ever watch Katy Perry's "California Dreams" video and just want to jump on that trampoline with her? Or, have you ever wanted to walk around in that fancy military jacket worn by Coldplay's Chris Martin? Oh, and you fashion fans, how about owning Jane Birkin's original Birkin Bag as designed for her by Hermes?

I bet you do, and now there's a way to buy all of these and help earthquake and tsunami-ravaged Japan via the EMI music groups exclusive online charity auction.

Located here, the auction also offers up exclusive items from 30 Seconds To Mars, Gorillaz, Norah Jones, The Beach Boys, David Guetta, Keith Urban and Lady Antebellum.

All funds raised will be used towards the Japanese Red Cross disaster relief efforts to help those affected by the earthquake and tsunami, including  the ongoing provision of immediate relief to support the affected population during their recovery. And, better yet, EMI Group has committed to match all funds raised from the auction up to a maximum of one million euros.

The first phase (which includes the Birkin and Martin's jacket from the 2010 Viva La Vida world tour, plus the Beastie Boys' Japanese MTV Award) will run until April 15th, while a second phase of the auction will take place between April 11th – 21st. That phase will include Perry's cupcake trampoline from her 2010 hit video, plus the 1987 Ferrari 412 as featured in Daft Punk’s film Electroma,  limited edition Beatles’ "Yellow Submarine" Schwinn bicycle, a signed guitar from Norah Jones, the MacBook used by David Guetta to create the demos for One Love, framed hand written lyrics from Brian Wilson, Tinie Tempah’s pink blazer from the "Frisky" video, and a limited edition Gorillaz lithograph signed by Jamie Hewlett and Damon Albarn.

Norah Jones tells UsMagazine.com: "Japan has been one of my favorite countries to visit and my heart goes out to everyone affected by this disaster. I'm so glad I can be part of this fundraising effort along with the EMI family. It helps make things a little bit easier at such a difficult time."
