Katy Perry is auctioning off an elephant statue that she designed to raise money for charity. 

The pop princess seems to be on a rather philanthropic mission of late as she recently donated her amazing cotton candy outfit to the American Red Cross and has now put the little figurine up as a lot for the Elephant Parade fundraiser for Asian elephant conservation. 

Writing about her specially designed statue, which she has named Dumbina and is in the all-American colours of red, white and blue, Perry explained:

"My elephant was inspired by my California Dreams Tour and Candyfornia - a magical, glittering place where everything is sweet! The crystals that adorn the elephant are precious, just like the Asian elephants that need our protection. Let’s raise awareness!"
