First of all, kudos to putting any cool spotlight on science. I think a different perspective would also be valuable. Why not put the rockstars in the lab or the field and THEN do a photoshoot after they tag an animal or make a cell glow. We might all be pleasantly surprised by their response that maybe rockstars actually think science is cool. I think this could be especially effective if the star (not limited to rock, why not sports, acting, art, etc.) chooses to pair up with a scientist researching a topic related to a cause close to their heart, whether it is cancer, autism or some environmental cause.
