Yesterday, I posted the cover of Ok Magazine featuring Sheryl Crow with her son, Wyatt. It sparked a "baby buying" and "publicity seeking" debate amongst my readers. Today, Sheryl explains why she decided to give OK magazine the exclusive. Read below.

Hi Everyone!
Well, as you no doubt have seen, Wyatt and I did our first, and probably only, photoshoot for a magazine. I have always made it a practice to keep my private life out of the public light but to be honest, I was being heavily stalked by photographers who wanted the get the "first shot." And rather than have someone I don't know sell a shot to a magazine, we accepted OK magazine's offer to make a generous donation to an amazing organization called the World Food Program in Wyatt's name.. (Please visit their site by clicking on the name or pasting this in your browser http://www.wfp.org)
So....Wyatt is now a humanitarian! Because he and I happened to catch an interview with Drew Barrymore on the Situation Room with Wolf Blitzer about this organization, we were inspired to get involved with the WFP.
In a nutshell,  this United Nations non-profit organization feeds millions of starving children at schools in third world countries as an incentive for them to attend school, which in turn might better their futures. They do so much more but I was so struck by this story that our relationship with the WFP was born, with the help of OK Magazine.
Hope you enjoy!
