  <title>Desperate Housewives Join The Muppets For Charity Initiative</title>
  <description>&lt;p&gt;Disney Parks is launching a program that celebrates the spirit of volunteer service with a simple proposition: &amp;#8220;Give a Day, Get a Disney Day.&amp;#8221; And they&amp;#8217;ve enlisted &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/417-teri-hatcher&quot;&gt;Teri Hatcher&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/330-james-denton&quot;&gt;James Denton&lt;/a&gt; and some madcap Muppets to help.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Disney hopes to inspire families to volunteer in their communities during 2010 through this first-of-its-kind program. One million people who perform volunteer service for a participating organization will receive a free one-day admission ticket to a Walt Disney World Resort or Disneyland Resort theme park.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8220;As you can see there&amp;#8217;s lots of volunteers here and they&amp;#8217;re excited about it, too,&amp;#8221; said Hatcher in a &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;PSA&lt;/span&gt; with Denton and The Muppets. &amp;#8220;I&amp;#8217;m a big believer in volunteering, and honestly the feeling that you get when you volunteer and give back is everything &amp;#8212; and you wouldn&amp;#8217;t even need the Disney day, but that&amp;#8217;s the icing on the cake.&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The initiative will kick off on January 1, 2010.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8220;In 2010, we want to recognize and add one more reason for celebration: the contributions people make to their communities every day,&amp;#8221; said Jay Rasulo, chairman of Walt Disney Parks and Resorts. &amp;#8220;We want to inspire 1 million volunteers &#8211; people who will invest time and energy to make their own communities and neighborhoods a better place.&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To enable people to sign up for an eligible volunteer project, Disney is working with HandsOn Network, the nation&amp;#8217;s largest volunteer network. Part of Points of Light Institute, HandsOn Network has 250 on-the-ground volunteer action centers across the country and connects volunteers to more than 70,000 nonprofit agencies that need their help.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8220;Wherever we live, our communities need our hands-on help to thrive,&amp;#8221; said Michelle Nunn, &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;CEO&lt;/span&gt; of Points of Light Institute. &amp;#8220;We are thrilled at this unprecedented effort by Disney Parks to help mobilize 1 million volunteers into action. &amp;#8216;Give a Day, Get a Disney Day&amp;#8217; has the potential to reach so many families and instill the volunteer spirit in a new generation.&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Bob Iger, president and &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;CEO&lt;/span&gt; of The Walt Disney Company, said, &amp;#8220;&amp;#8216;Give a Day, Get a Disney Day&amp;#8217; fits perfectly with our long history of supporting and participating in volunteer efforts. It&amp;#8217;s a great way to honor guests who are making a positive contribution to their communities.&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;

  <title>LTTS Exclusive - The 2009 Noble Awards</title>
  <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;small&gt;Written by &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/contributor/39-michelle-vink&quot;&gt;Michelle Vink&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I had the honor of attending &amp;#8220;The Noble Awards&amp;#8221; on their first annual show honoring charities and their celebrity supporters.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;On Sunday, October 18th at The Beverly Hilton, &amp;#8220;Access Hollywood&amp;#8217;s&amp;#8221; Billy Bush hosted the premiere of this special event honoring &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/246-morgan-freeman&quot;&gt;Morgan Freeman&lt;/a&gt; with a Lifetime Achievement Award and a list of celebrity honorees from Brett Ratner to &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/417-teri-hatcher&quot;&gt;Teri Hatcher&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Guests were treated to live performances from names like Brian McKnight and &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/1901-benji-madden&quot;&gt;Benji Madden&lt;/a&gt; and the famed 8-year-old piano prodigy, Emily Bear. The night was supported with a star-studded cast of performers, honorees and guests that all believe in using the power of their voice in the name of philanthropy and charity. No detail was too small for this event. The award sculpture itself was the vision of &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/940-antonio-banderas&quot;&gt;Antonio Banderas&lt;/a&gt; and came to life at &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/393-the-art-of-elysium&quot;&gt;The Art of Elysium&lt;/a&gt; workshop with personal touches from the children at the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/823-shriners-hospitals-for-children&quot;&gt;Shriners Hospitals for Children&lt;/a&gt; with the guidance of The Art of Elysium volunteer/actor/sculptor David Grieco.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Noble Awards was an inaugural awards show that launched the beginning of a perennial movement that will encourage each and every person to give back and take action in the world today.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Each year they will recognize and honor philanthropic organizations and the celebrities that make considerable contributions to them. Some of this year honorees included &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/291-nancy-odell&quot;&gt;Nancy O&amp;#8217;Dell&lt;/a&gt; for &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/341-best-buddies-international&quot;&gt;Best Buddies International&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/1676-annalynne-mccord&quot;&gt;AnnaLynne McCord&lt;/a&gt; for &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/1347-the-blind-project&quot;&gt;The Blind Project&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/417-teri-hatcher&quot;&gt;Teri Hatcher&lt;/a&gt; for &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/349-childrens-hospital-los-angeles&quot;&gt;Children&amp;#8217;s Hospital Los Angeles&lt;/a&gt;, Brett Ratner for &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/1167-dosomething-org&quot;&gt;DoSomething.org&lt;/a&gt;, Billy Bush for &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/106-lollipop-theater-network&quot;&gt;Lollipop Theater Network&lt;/a&gt;, Whitney Burditt for Playing for Change, Kenneth &amp;#8220;Babyface&amp;#8221; Edmonds for &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/1120-stand-up-to-cancer&quot;&gt;Stand Up To Cancer&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/1730-laila-ali&quot;&gt;Laila Ali&lt;/a&gt; for Women&amp;#8217;s Sport Foundation and a charity very close to my heart, The Art of Elysium honoring &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/904-joel-madden&quot;&gt;Joel Madden&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Jennifer Howell, Founder of The Art of Elysium, presented this award to Joel Madden with &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/1822-lionel-richie&quot;&gt;Lionel Richie&lt;/a&gt;, Allison Beck and Stacey Price: &amp;#8220;As both an artist and a father, Joel truly embodies a sincere passion for both music and children. It was evident in his beautiful and humble acceptance speech where he expressed his heartbreak at the thought of a child spending one second inside of a hospital. A moment that was also extremely moving was when his twin brother [&amp;#8221;Benji&amp;quot;:http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/1901-benji-madden] (who has spent many days with The Art of Elysium teaching guitar and participating in music workshops) shared his love for his brother with a music dedication. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/903-nicole-richie&quot;&gt;Nicole Richie&lt;/a&gt; (who has also dedicated her talents to the charity) looked on lovingly while her Father introduced Joel and thanked him for loving his daughter so much. The love, support and generosity that was shown by all members of Joel&amp;#8217;s family are the true roots that can help take The Art of Elysium&amp;#8217;s mission to every child that spends that terrifying one second in a hospital.&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I was lucky enough to experience the vision of the Founder/Executive Producer, Janeen Mansour, prior to the event and watch it develop from an idea to a reality.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8220;The goal of the Noble Awards was to highlight the charities there that night and celebrities that champion them,&amp;#8221; she said. &amp;#8220;Our goal reached far beyond my expectations. The purpose of the Noble Awards is to create awareness and send out a call to action. I feel everyone in the room was inspired and moved and understood the message we were trying to convey. That message is to be &lt;em&gt;a Noble&lt;/em&gt;.&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Noble Awards are a testament to what Hollywood can achieve when it uses its voice to celebrate positive change. This event showcased just a few of the many celebrities and individuals dedicated to making a difference in the world today. It is my hope that it will serve as an inspiration to others to get involved in their charity, community or cause that has meaning to them. Being a volunteer takes less time than your yoga class and can cost you less money than your Latte. But the experience will stay with you a lifetime.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To the children, the volunteers, the unnamed angels, the celebrities, the founders, the team behind this event and to all of the people that donate their time and passion to making a difference on a daily basis, this celebrates you.&lt;/p&gt;

  <title>Inaugural Noble Awards Celebrate Hollywood Philanthropy</title>
  <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;small&gt;Written by &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/contributor/14-tim-saunders&quot;&gt;Tim Saunders&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Look To The Stars&lt;/em&gt; was proud to be part of the inaugural Noble Awards on Sunday, October 18 &amp;#8211; an event that honored a host of charities and the celebrities that support them, elevating awareness of the significant impact of their work.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Held at the Beverly Hilton Hotel, the event honored &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/246-morgan-freeman&quot;&gt;Morgan Freeman&lt;/a&gt; with a lifetime achievement award, as well as &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/1730-laila-ali&quot;&gt;Laila Ali&lt;/a&gt; (&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/523-womens-sports-foundation&quot;&gt;Women&amp;#8217;s Sports Foundation&lt;/a&gt;), Billy Bush (&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/106-lollipop-theater-network&quot;&gt;Lollipop Theater Network&lt;/a&gt;), Kenny Edmonds (&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/1120-stand-up-to-cancer&quot;&gt;Stand Up To Cancer&lt;/a&gt;), &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/417-teri-hatcher&quot;&gt;Teri Hatcher&lt;/a&gt; (&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/349-childrens-hospital-los-angeles&quot;&gt;Children&amp;#8217;s Hospital Los Angeles&lt;/a&gt;), &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/1390-norman-lear&quot;&gt;Norman Lear&lt;/a&gt; (Playing for Change), &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/904-joel-madden&quot;&gt;Joel Madden&lt;/a&gt; (&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/393-the-art-of-elysium&quot;&gt;The Art of Elysium&lt;/a&gt;), &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/1676-annalynne-mccord&quot;&gt;AnnaLynne McCord&lt;/a&gt; (The Blind Project), &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/291-nancy-odell&quot;&gt;Nancy O&amp;#8217;Dell&lt;/a&gt; (&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/341-best-buddies-international&quot;&gt;Best Buddies International&lt;/a&gt;), &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/64-eva-longoria&quot;&gt;Eva Longoria Parker&lt;/a&gt; (Padres Contra El Cancer) and Brett Ratner (&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/1167-dosomething-org&quot;&gt;DoSomething.org&lt;/a&gt;).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/1822-lionel-richie&quot;&gt;Lionel Richie&lt;/a&gt; was on hand during the ceremony to present an award to Joel Madden, who attended the event with &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/903-nicole-richie&quot;&gt;Nicole Richie&lt;/a&gt; and his brother &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/1901-benji-madden&quot;&gt;Benji&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8220;I want to welcome him to our family and present this Noble award to a guy I love very much &amp;#8211; Joel Madden!&amp;#8221; said Lionel as he introduced Joel to the crowd.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8220;They are just as much a part of it,&amp;#8221; said Madden, paying tribute to Nicole and Benji. &amp;#8220;Nicole does just as much as I do with Art of Elysium and all the charities we work with. And so does Benj &#8211; Benj actually does more then I do, and he plays the guitar better then I do, so he is a little more entertaining for the kids.&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Madden later Twittered about the emotions he felt as he accepted his award: &amp;#8220;Just left the &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;NOBLE&lt;/span&gt; awards. Got an award that was really for the people at the Art of Elysium. Awesome folks and I&amp;#8217;m humbled to know them. By the way got totally choked up when I got my award. I hate thinking about kids in the hospital, they should be getting the awards not us.&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The award itself was designed by &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/940-antonio-banderas&quot;&gt;Antonio Banderas&lt;/a&gt;, with personal touches added by children who participated in The Art of Elysium workshop at the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/823-shriners-hospitals-for-children&quot;&gt;Shriners Hospitals for Children&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Morgan Freeman received the Lifetime Achievement Award for his tireless work and dedication to over a dozen non-profits. Freeman&amp;#8217;s diverse charitable efforts include working with American &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/75-red-cross&quot;&gt;Red Cross&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/415-artists-for-a-new-south-africa&quot;&gt;Artists for a New South Africa&lt;/a&gt;, the Campaign for Female Education, Earth Biofuels, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/309-grenada-relief-fund&quot;&gt;Grenada Relief Fund&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/315-mississippi-animal-rescue-league&quot;&gt;Mississippi Animal Rescue League&lt;/a&gt; and Mississippi State College of Veterinary Medicine. Freeman has also done PSAs for &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/615-sierra-club&quot;&gt;Sierra Club&lt;/a&gt;, and a number of &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/134-entertainment-industry-foundation&quot;&gt;Entertainment Industry Foundation&lt;/a&gt; campaigns, covering issues like colon cancer prevention, health care reform and volunteerism.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8220;I think so often we don&amp;#8217;t know that our gestures matter,&amp;#8221; said Teri Hatcher, who was also honored. &amp;#8220;I think when you get involved in your local community charity you really do see you make a difference and it&amp;#8217;s empowering for you.&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Look To The Stars&lt;/em&gt; was at the awards, and we will bring you more about the fantastic event over the coming days.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8220;The Entertainment Industry Foundation is pleased to be a part of the inaugural Noble Awards,&amp;#8221; said Lisa Paulsen, President and &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;CEO&lt;/span&gt; of Entertainment Industry Foundation. &amp;#8220;We are honored and so proud to present our dear friend and exceptional actor Morgan Freeman with the Lifetime Achievement Award for his outstanding charitable work and ongoing contributions to so many important social causes.&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Noble Awards will kick off the &amp;#8220;Be A Noble&amp;#8221; Movement, a perennial effort to encourage each and every person to &amp;#8220;Be A Noble,&amp;#8221; and inspire them to give back and take action with a purpose on a global scale. Some of these initiatives include:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;em&gt;Look to the Stars&lt;/em&gt; will work year-round with The Noble Awards to promote philanthropy in Hollywood.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;As part of next year&amp;#8217;s Cup with a Cause program, 7-Eleven, in collaboration with The Noble Awards, will produce a series of celebrity-designed coffee cups featured in stores nationwide. A minimum of $250,000 will go towards each participating celebrity&amp;#8217;s charity of choice. During The Noble Awards&amp;#8217; cocktail hour, guests will be asked to design cups as part of the program.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Participant Media and Takepart.com, the official &amp;#8220;action&amp;#8221; platform for the Awards, have partnered with the &amp;#8220;Be A Noble&amp;#8221; Movement to provide the Foundation with a web platform to showcase the work of all the organizations they are honoring throughout the year.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;ONEHOPE&lt;/span&gt; Wine has bottled an award-winning varietal of wine to be labeled &amp;#8220;&lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;NOBLE&lt;/span&gt;.&amp;#8221; 100% of all proceeds from each bottle will go towards the &amp;#8220;Be A Noble&amp;#8221; Movement, to be distributed among the honored charities.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Rumblefish Jewelry will design a jewelry line based on The Noble Awards and &amp;#8220;Be A Noble&amp;#8221; Movement, where a percentage of sales will be donated to Noble charities.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Additional partners include &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;EIF&lt;/span&gt;/iParticipate, The Hollywood Reporter, Audi, Beverly Hilton, Mobile Cause, Rosenthal and GoodSearch.&lt;/p&gt;

Produced on behalf of the Celebrity Charity Awards Corporation, a non-profit organization, the first annual awards will take place on October 18, 2009. The Celebrity Charity Awards Corporation will launch a year-round movement to BE A &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;NOBLE&lt;/span&gt; to better unify the efforts of charities with celebrities, influencers, media and everyday citizens in order to create an effective forum for change and service.

  <title>Teri Hatcher Completes Triathlon For Charity</title>
  <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;small&gt;Written by &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/contributor/14-tim-saunders&quot;&gt;Tim Saunders&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Desperate Housewives&lt;/em&gt; star &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/417-teri-hatcher&quot;&gt;Teri Hatcher&lt;/a&gt; was one of several stars to compete for charity in the 2009 Nautica Malibu Triathlon during the weekend.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8220;I&amp;#8217;m still standing , yeah yeah yeah,&amp;#8221; &lt;a href=&quot;http://chla.kintera.org/faf/donorReg/donorPledge.asp?ievent=300123&amp;amp;lis=1&amp;amp;kntae300123=C748DD9BCD0A49CE82E44CA9A9564298&amp;amp;supId=268501588&quot;&gt;blogged the star&lt;/a&gt;. &amp;#8220;What a great experience I had doing my first official triathlon. Many many thanks to all those who donated! I couldn&amp;#8217;t have had more generous support from friends, family and fans. I couldn&amp;#8217;t have been with a nicer more supportive team than Team Disney. We raised funds for [&amp;#8221;Children&amp;#8217;s Hospital Los Angeles&amp;quot;:http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/349-childrens-hospital-los-angeles] in record numbers. I am proud and grateful and humbled by all the efforts put forth by the thousands of contestants and spectators.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8220;I have a new article posting on Modernmom.com on finishing the triathlon called &amp;#8220;To compete or not to compete&amp;#8221; and an earlier written one called &amp;#8220;How is motherhood like a triathlon.&amp;#8221; Please visit their site for some light fun reading.&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Other stars that competed in the triathlon for Children&amp;#8217;s Hospital Los Angeles included &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/963-felicity-huffman&quot;&gt;Felicity Huffman&lt;/a&gt; and actor husband &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/1906-william-h-macy&quot;&gt;William H. Macy&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/1532-anna-kournikova&quot;&gt;Anna Kournikova&lt;/a&gt; and Saved By The Bell star &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/864-mario-lopez&quot;&gt;Mario Lopez&lt;/a&gt;. The event was kicked off by &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/1012-david-hasselhoff&quot;&gt;David Hasselhoff&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

  <title>Teri Hatcher Blogs About Charity Triathlon Training</title>
  <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;small&gt;Written by &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/contributor/14-tim-saunders&quot;&gt;Tim Saunders&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Desperate Housewives&lt;/em&gt; star &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/417-teri-hatcher&quot;&gt;Teri Hatcher&lt;/a&gt; is set to compete in the 2009 Nautica Malibu Triathlon for charity, and she&amp;#8217;s blogging about her training.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The actress is looking for donations for &amp;#8220;Team Hatcher&amp;#8221; to support &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/349-childrens-hospital-los-angeles&quot;&gt;Children&amp;#8217;s Hospital Los Angeles&lt;/a&gt;. Her fundraising goal for the event &#8211; which takes place this Saturday &#8211; is $10,000, and she is hoping for your support.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8220;I recently accepted the challenge of participating in the fundraising efforts surrounding the Nautica Malibu Triathlon,&amp;#8221; she wrote. &amp;quot;I have single handedly taken my carbon footprint significantly down by riding my bike to work at least 3 times a week. I&amp;#8217;m running on my treadmill &amp;#8211; so I&amp;#8217;ve had to find room in my closet for the clothes that normally hang on it &amp;#8211; and I&amp;#8217;m swimming 50 to 80 laps in my pool. Thus the pool no longer serves as a leaf and bee catcher. The event takes place on September 13, 2009, and I have committed to raise at least $10,000 for Childrens Hospital Los Angeles in partnership with the event. I&amp;#8217;ve done one &amp;#8220;dress rehearsal&amp;#8221; in which I did not drown or get eaten by a great white shark. And after watching an entire shark week of episodes on TV, that was what I call facing a giant fear.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8220;Donate anything you can, &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;EVEN&lt;/span&gt; a &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;DOLLAR&lt;/span&gt;. I&amp;#8217;m really grateful to those of you who&amp;#8217;ve come this far to check out this event. It&amp;#8217;s raising lots of money for such an important cause &amp;#8211; children. What could be more important than that?!&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To read Teri&amp;#8217;s blog and donate to her effort, click &lt;a href=&quot;http://chla.kintera.org/faf/donorReg/donorPledge.asp?ievent=300123&amp;amp;lis=1&amp;amp;kntae300123=C748DD9BCD0A49CE82E44CA9A9564298&amp;amp;supId=268501588&quot;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

  <title>Teri Hatcher To Be Honored At A Stellar Night</title>
  <description>&lt;p&gt;The &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/233-starlight-childrens-foundation&quot;&gt;Starlight Children&amp;#8217;s Foundation&lt;/a&gt; will present &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/417-teri-hatcher&quot;&gt;Teri Hatcher&lt;/a&gt; with its 2009 Heart of Gold Award at the organization&amp;#8217;s annual &lt;em&gt;A Stellar Night&lt;/em&gt; gala on March 27.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hosted by Dave Koz, &lt;em&gt;A Stellar Night&lt;/em&gt; will spotlight inspirational stories from Starlight families and pay tribute to humanitarians who are helping seriously ill children and their families cope with their pain, fear and isolation. The event invites adults to bring children to teach them firsthand about the importance of philanthropy and to share with them the impact that Starlight&amp;#8217;s programs have on families with seriously ill children&#8230;brightening their world, a little each day.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The awards will be presented by &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/84-jamie-lee-curtis&quot;&gt;Jamie Lee Curtis&lt;/a&gt;, with guests such as &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/1635-jeff-henderson&quot;&gt;Jeff Henderson&lt;/a&gt;, Allen Alvarado, Alyson Stoner, Christopher Massey, Devon Werkheiser, Dominic Scott Kay, Field Cate, Kay Panabaker, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/1379-kyle-massey&quot;&gt;Kyle Massey&lt;/a&gt;, Rachel Sibner, Rob Pinkston, Tyler Foden and Zane Huett expected to attend.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The event will be held at the Beverly Hilton Hotel, and starts at 6pm with cocktails and a silent auction, followed by dinner. More information can be found &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.starlight.org/events/&quot;&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

  <title>Siegfried &amp; Roy Make Triumphant Return</title>
  <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;small&gt;Written by &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/contributor/14-tim-saunders&quot;&gt;Tim Saunders&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Famed illusionists &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/1148-siegfried-and-roy&quot;&gt;Siegfried &amp;amp; Roy&lt;/a&gt; made their return to the stage in Las Vegas on Saturday, February 28.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The duo performed a 15 minute show at the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/458-keep-memory-alive&quot;&gt;Keep Memory Alive&lt;/a&gt; Foundation&amp;#8217;s &amp;#8220;Power of Love&amp;#8221; gala to benefit the Lou Ruvo Brain Institute (&lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;LRBI&lt;/span&gt;) in Las Vegas.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8220;This is the goodbye we never were able to say,&amp;#8221; Roy Horn told the Las Vegas Sun. &amp;#8220;This is the farewell we wanted to make. Our duty now is to give back to the community that gave us so many gifts and so much love over the years. We are very much committed to the amazing work being done and the successes that will be achieved [at the Institute].&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The show was the first time the pair has appeared on stage since Horn was mauled by a tiger during a show in 2003. The tiger, Montecore, also appeared with the magicians during their show on Saturday.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Among the stars who paid up to $75,000 for a table at the dinner and show were &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/76-hilary-duff&quot;&gt;Hilary Duff&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/565-danny-devito&quot;&gt;Danny DeVito&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/417-teri-hatcher&quot;&gt;Teri Hatcher&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/1176-steve-schirripa&quot;&gt;Steve Schirripa&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/news/638-siegfried-and-roys-magical-return&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Look To The Stars&lt;/em&gt; reported last year&lt;/a&gt;, the Lou Ruvo Brain Institute has been under construction since 2007. It will aim to provide the most current research and scientific information for the prevention, early detection, treatment, education, and support of memory disorders and neurodegenerative dementia diseases. &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;LRBI&lt;/span&gt; plans to &amp;#8220;house the world&amp;#8217;s most powerful brain doctors&amp;#8221;, and predicts that the cure for Alzheimer&amp;#8217;s, Parkinson&amp;#8217;s, Huntington&amp;#8217;s, and Lou Gehrig&amp;#8217;s disease will be discovered there.&lt;/p&gt;

  <title>LTTS Exclusive: Inside A Night To Make A Difference with Host Michelle Vink</title>
  <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;small&gt;Written by &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/contributor/39-michelle-vink&quot;&gt;Michelle Vink&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Look To The Stars&amp;#8217;&lt;/em&gt; lead host, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/contributor/39&quot;&gt;Michelle Vink&lt;/a&gt; was on hand as a host of &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/347-leeza-gibbons&quot;&gt;Leeza Gibbons&amp;#8217;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;em&gt;A Night To Make A Difference&lt;/em&gt; Fundraiser on Oscar night. Read her story below:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h5&gt;&amp;#8220;Without hope, life is just not worth living&amp;#8221;&#8230;&lt;/h5&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Those were the words from Harvey Milk from the Oscar-winning movie, &lt;em&gt;Milk&lt;/em&gt;. Despite the uncertain state of the economy and the lack of faith we keep hearing about on the news, there was an overwhelming resurgence of hopeful optimism at the Oscars this year. Winning storylines like &lt;em&gt;Slumdog Millionaire&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Milk&lt;/em&gt; captured that very essence.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h5&gt;A new type of Oscar party&lt;/h5&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I recall reading that &lt;em&gt;Slumdog&lt;/em&gt; director &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/1645-danny-boyle&quot;&gt;Danny Boyle&lt;/a&gt; placed the money to be paid to the 3 lead child actors in a trust until they complete grade school, and that the production company set up a driver to take the kids to school every day until they are 16 years old. When the movie was nominated for an Oscar alongside all the &lt;em&gt;Milk&lt;/em&gt; nominations, I knew it would be a good year.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Soon after that I learned of a new type of Oscar party that Leeza Gibbons was coordinating, called &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/news/2090-look-to-the-stars-exclusive-live-stream-of-leeza-gibbons-night-to-make-a-difference&quot;&gt;A Night to Make A Difference&lt;/a&gt;. The timing was impeccable, and before I knew it I was invited to help host the event.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;Photo: Russell, Leeza and Michelle&quot; class=&quot;photo story_wide&quot; src=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/photo/2439-russell-leeza-and-michelle/story_wide.jpg&quot; title=&quot;Russell, Leeza and Michelle&quot; /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;Michelle with Leeza and co-host, Russell.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h5&gt;Celebrity organisers with special causes&lt;/h5&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Leeza wanted to &amp;#8220;take the global stage of Oscar Night and use it to put the focus on advocacy, philanthropy and volunteerism.&amp;#8221; With a team of volunteers and a production team fueled with the same passion, Leeza did just that. Helped by &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/472-olivia-newton-john&quot;&gt;Olivia Newton-John&lt;/a&gt;, music legend &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/207-david-foster&quot;&gt;David Foster&lt;/a&gt;, and several co-hosts, the team created &amp;#8220;A Party with a Purpose.&amp;#8221; This monumental event not only benefited &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/402-leezas-place&quot;&gt;Leeza Gibbons&amp;#8217; Memory Foundation&lt;/a&gt; and the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/481-olivia-newton-john-cancer-centre&quot;&gt;Olivia Newton-John Cancer Centre&lt;/a&gt;, but also raised awareness for philanthropy and inspired a feeling of hope. This inaugural event was streamed live here on LooktotheStars.org, and on other sites including Variety.com , LeezaGibbonsOscarEvent.com, Glam.com and ExtraTV.com.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;With the aid of &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/195-jessica-biel&quot;&gt;Jessica Biel&lt;/a&gt; and her &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/237-make-the-difference-network&quot;&gt;Make The Difference Network&lt;/a&gt;, an opportunity was created for viewers to donate to the cause or just open the door for people to get involved in a charity that is close to their own hearts. Check out &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.mtdn.com&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;MTDN&lt;/span&gt;.com&lt;/a&gt; for more information on Jessica&amp;#8217;s charity.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h5&gt;An all-star cast of celebrity givers&lt;/h5&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Celebrities who came out to support this event and celebrate Hollywood&amp;#8217;s big heart included &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/1730-laila-ali&quot;&gt;Laila Ali&lt;/a&gt; (who uses her celebrity to get kids excited about physical fitness), &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/898-melanie-brown&quot;&gt;Mel B.&lt;/a&gt;, Jessica Biel, Wilson Cruz, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/76-hilary-duff&quot;&gt;Hilary Duff&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/417-teri-hatcher&quot;&gt;Teri Hatcher&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/471-tony-hawk&quot;&gt;Tony Hawk&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/719-paris-hilton&quot;&gt;Paris Hilton&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/999-slash&quot;&gt;Slash&lt;/a&gt; &amp;amp; Perla Hudson (who donated a guitar to the auction), Kym Johnson, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/864-mario-lopez&quot;&gt;Mario Lopez&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/715-melissa-gilbert&quot;&gt;Melissa Gilbert&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/156-jane-seymour&quot;&gt;Jane Seymour&lt;/a&gt; &amp;amp; James Keach, Cindy Margolis, Terrell Owens, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/289-holly-robinson-peete&quot;&gt;Holly Robinson-Peete&lt;/a&gt;, Suzanne Somers, Dee Wallace, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/496-forest-whitaker&quot;&gt;Forest&lt;/a&gt; &amp;amp; Keisha Whitaker and many, many others. I was honored to interview Wilson Cruz (&lt;em&gt;He&amp;#8217;s Just Not That Into You&lt;/em&gt;) immediately following &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/1758-dustin-lance-black&quot;&gt;Dustin Lance Black&amp;#8217;s&lt;/a&gt; win for &lt;em&gt;Milk&lt;/em&gt; and I was moved by his passionate desire for change.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;Photo: Leeza, Teri Hatcher, Russell and Michelle&quot; class=&quot;photo story_wide&quot; src=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/photo/2440-leeza-teri-hatcher-russell-and-michelle/story_wide.jpg&quot; title=&quot;Leeza, Teri Hatcher, Russell and Michelle&quot; /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;Michelle talks to Teri Hatcher during the event.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h4&gt;A responsibility to help&lt;/h4&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Rex Lee said of using his celebrity status for good, &amp;#8220;For whatever reason, people out in the world pay attention to us, and if I say I support Olivia Newton John and building a new cancer center out in Australia, people listen. There is a responsibily in that.&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/602-michael-buble&quot;&gt;Michael Buble&lt;/a&gt; expressed his feelings on helping others, too, saying, &amp;#8220;I think most people hopefully have compassion and empathy. We&amp;#8217;ve been blessed, and we should help.&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;Photo: Paris Hilton and Michael Buble at A Night to Make a Difference&quot; class=&quot;photo story_wide&quot; src=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/photo/2442-paris-hilton-and-michael-buble-at-a-night-to-make-a-difference/story_wide.jpg&quot; title=&quot;Paris Hilton and Michael Buble at A Night to Make a Difference&quot; /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;Michael Buble and Paris Hilton &amp;#8211; photo by Levi Walker&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Manuela Testolini, founder of In A Perfect World, talked about giving back, saying, &amp;#8220;It&amp;#8217;s mutually beneficial. The thing that unites us despite our circumstances is the desire to create better world.&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h5&gt;Making a difference with makeovers&lt;/h5&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Another special touch to the event was the five women that were &amp;#8220;hired&amp;#8221; as extras from the LA Women&amp;#8217;s Shelter. Celebrity hairdresser &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/1194-ken-paves&quot;&gt;Ken Paves&lt;/a&gt; supervised red carpet makeovers for these women, providing hair, makeup and wardrobe. Shoes were donated by &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/96-jessica-simpson&quot;&gt;Jessica Simpson&lt;/a&gt;. The women were given life coaching lessons and a boost of confidence to help them show others that change &lt;em&gt;is&lt;/em&gt; possible, that we can always reinvent ourselves (just like &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/201-madonna&quot;&gt;Madonna&lt;/a&gt;), and that there is always room for a second chance.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h5&gt;&amp;#8220;Help other people&amp;#8221;&lt;/h5&gt;
&lt;p&gt;While on the red carpet, Jane Seymour said, &amp;#8220;It&amp;#8217;s not just the Oscars, but giving back and helping other people. It&amp;#8217;s about what you can do to help other people right now. The more we help other people, the better it will be for all of us. My mum always used to say to me, &amp;#8216;When life is tough, go out and help other people&amp;#8217; [&amp;#8230;] Every single person on this planet can make a difference &amp;#8211; it&amp;#8217;s just an act of kindness.&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;So despite what we have been hearing on the news, it looks like there are a few of us out there that still believe in hope. Thank you, Leeza &amp;#8212; it truly was a party with a purpose.&lt;/p&gt;

  <title>Hugh Laurie To Be Honored For Charity Work</title>
  <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;small&gt;Written by &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/contributor/14-tim-saunders&quot;&gt;Tim Saunders&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;House&lt;/em&gt; star &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/624-hugh-laurie&quot;&gt;Hugh Laurie&lt;/a&gt; will be honored with a special humanitarian award by the Venice Family Clinic later tonight, February 23.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Along with &lt;em&gt;House&lt;/em&gt; creator David Shore, Laurie will be honored for his charity work. Also being honored at the event is the David Geffen School of Medicine at &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;UCLA&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Founded in 1983, Silver Circle is Venice Family Clinic&amp;#8217;s premier giving group, raising more than one million dollars annually to provide free, quality health care to people in need. The Venice Family Clinic, the nation&amp;#8217;s largest free clinic, provides free, quality health care to people in need. Last year, with the support of Silver Circle donors and more than 1,500 volunteers&#8212;including nearly 500 physicians&#8212;the Clinic served over 23,500 children and adults in approximately 100,000 primary care, specialty care, mental health and dental visits. Silver Circle is Venice Family Clinic&amp;#8217;s premier annual support group, raising approximately $1,000,000 per year.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Laurie was busy with his charity pursuits over the weekend: on Sunday he performed with the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/1615-band-from-tv&quot;&gt;Band From TV&lt;/a&gt; at the West Coast Premiere of &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;NASCAR&lt;/span&gt;, the Auto Club 500.

  <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;small&gt;Written by &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/contributor/14-tim-saunders&quot;&gt;Tim Saunders&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Look To The Stars&lt;/em&gt; is proud to be involved in one of Hollywood&amp;#8217;s premier charity Oscar parties this weekend. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/347-leeza-gibbons&quot;&gt;Leeza Gibbons&amp;#8217;&lt;/a&gt; A &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/news/2030-leeza-gibbons-and-olivia-newton-john-present-a-night-to-make-a-difference&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Night To Make A Difference&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt; will take place on Sunday, February 22, at the iconic Mr Chow in Beverly Hills, with a host of celebrities expected to attend. And &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/live&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Look To The Stars&lt;/em&gt; is streaming the event &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;LIVE&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This unique event will bring together stars from film, TV, music, sports and fashion to celebrate the worlds of celebrity and charity. Special Ambassadors of Change who have used their celebrity to make a tangible difference in the world will be on hand to empower the audience to make a difference in their own lives.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hosted by Leeza Gibbons, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/472-olivia-newton-john&quot;&gt;Olivia Newton-John&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/207-david-foster&quot;&gt;David Foster&lt;/a&gt;, the &lt;em&gt;Night To Make A Difference&lt;/em&gt; will attract stars such as &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/719-paris-hilton&quot;&gt;Paris Hilton&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/195-jessica-biel&quot;&gt;Jessica Biel&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/496-forest-whitaker&quot;&gt;Forest Whitaker&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/999-slash&quot;&gt;Slash&lt;/a&gt;, Alan Thicke, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/1917-ashley-tisdale&quot;&gt;Ashley Tisdale&lt;/a&gt;, Brooke Burns, Cheryl Burke, Cheryl Ladd, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/254-chevy-chase&quot;&gt;Chevy Chase&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/1645-danny-boyle&quot;&gt;Danny Boyle&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/591-darryl-mcdaniels&quot;&gt;Darryl McDaniels&lt;/a&gt;, Dee Wallace, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/76-hilary-duff&quot;&gt;Hilary Duff&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/289-holly-robinson-peete&quot;&gt;Holly Robinson-Peete&lt;/a&gt;, Jaclyn Smith, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/156-jane-seymour&quot;&gt;Jane Seymour&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/862-joey-fatone&quot;&gt;Joey Fatone&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/1216-jordin-sparks&quot;&gt;Jordin Sparks&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/1194-ken-paves&quot;&gt;Ken Paves&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/864-mario-lopez&quot;&gt;Mario Lopez&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/898-melanie-brown&quot;&gt;Mel B.&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/715-melissa-gilbert&quot;&gt;Melissa Gilbert&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/1268-rick-schroder&quot;&gt;Rick Schroder&lt;/a&gt;, Suzanne Somers, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/1491-taraji-p-henson&quot;&gt;Taraji P.

&lt;p&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;Photo: Night to Make a Difference&quot; class=&quot;photo story_wide&quot; src=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/photo/2414-night-to-make-a-difference/story_wide.jpg&quot; title=&quot;Night to Make a Difference&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8220;The Night To Make a Difference party is to benefit the [&amp;#8221;Leeza Gibbons Memory Foundation&amp;quot;:http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/402-leezas-place] and my own &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/481-olivia-newton-john-cancer-centre&quot;&gt;Olivia Newton-John Cancer and Wellness Center&lt;/a&gt;,&amp;quot; Olivia Newton-John &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/news/2067-exclusive-interview-look-to-the-stars-talks-to-olivia-newton-john&quot;&gt;told &lt;em&gt;Look To The Stars&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. &amp;#8220;But now it has morphed into a bigger night than just our two charities &#8211; it&amp;#8217;s about everybody&amp;#8217;s philanthropy and giving back. It&amp;#8217;s a new era in America with the new Obama presidency, and it&amp;#8217;s all about giving back, so we decided to make the night an evening about celebrity giving &#8211; like the theme of &lt;em&gt;Look To The Stars&lt;/em&gt;.&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Other charities to be involved with the event are Jessica Biel&amp;#8217;s &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/237-make-the-difference-network&quot;&gt;Make The Difference Network&lt;/a&gt;, the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/587-felix-organization&quot;&gt;Felix Organization&lt;/a&gt;, the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/685-childrens-hospice-and-palliative-care-coalition&quot;&gt;Children&amp;#8217;s Hospice &amp;amp; Palliative Care Coalition&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/660-cancer-schmancer-movement&quot;&gt;Cancer Schmancer Movement&lt;/a&gt;, Blessings in a Backpack, the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/75-red-cross&quot;&gt;Red Cross&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/449-treepeople&quot;&gt;TreePeople&lt;/a&gt;, the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/480-tony-hawk-foundation&quot;&gt;Tony Hawk Foundation&lt;/a&gt;, the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/105-david-foster-foundation&quot;&gt;David Foster Foundation&lt;/a&gt;, Smiles For Life, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/380-the-hollyrod-foundation&quot;&gt;The HollyRod Foundation&lt;/a&gt; and many more.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8220;This event is truly different from the others and one of the aspects I am most excited about is the ability for viewers at home to be a part of the experience via the live &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/live&quot;&gt;webcast&lt;/a&gt;,&amp;#8221; said Leeza Gibbons. &amp;#8220;With Arquiva and Highwinds handling the technical wizardry, we are able to focus on our message of advocacy and philanthropy. Our hope is to inspire people at home and around the world to take action and knowing that we are able to reach a broad audience on the web means we truly have a chance to help create the change presented by our on-camera Hollywood celebrities. I think it&amp;#8217;s what happens when Hollywood stars converge with technical stars like Arquiva and Highwinds. Our combination of being behind the scenes of movie&amp;#8217;s most glamorous night along wtih it&amp;#8217;s most passionate and purposeful stars takes the gold for best new web idea!&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The event kicks off at 4pm in Beverly Hills with Red Carpet arrivals. For more information and tickets, visit the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.leezagibbonsoscarnight.com/index.html&quot;&gt;official Night To Make A Difference website&lt;/a&gt;.

  <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;small&gt;Written by &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/contributor/14-tim-saunders&quot;&gt;Tim Saunders&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Fans of great music and television&amp;#8217;s hottest stars should aim to stay home in front of the TV this Friday, as &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/1615-band-from-tv&quot;&gt;Band From TV&lt;/a&gt; make an appearance on &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/442-jay-leno&quot;&gt;Jay Leno&amp;#8217;s&lt;/a&gt; Tonight Show. And &lt;em&gt;Look To The Stars&lt;/em&gt; is giving you the chance to win an autographed copy of the group&amp;#8217;s brand new CD/&lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;DVD&lt;/span&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/news/1376-band-from-tv-are-hoggin-all-the-covers&quot;&gt;Hoggin All The Covers&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The all-star cover band donates all of its proceeds to charities &amp;#8211; including &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/192-save-the-children&quot;&gt;Save the Children&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/393-the-art-of-elysium&quot;&gt;The Art of Elysium&lt;/a&gt;, the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/1251-child-abuse-prevention-program&quot;&gt;Child Abuse Prevention Program&lt;/a&gt; and the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/21-national-coalition-against-domestic-violence&quot;&gt;National Coalition Against Domestic Violence&lt;/a&gt; &amp;#8211; through the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/627-band-from-tv-global-charity-trust&quot;&gt;Band From TV Global Charity Trust&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;House&lt;/em&gt; star &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/624-hugh-laurie&quot;&gt;Hugh Laurie&lt;/a&gt; &#8211; who plays keyboards in the band &#8211; will take on vocal duties during their performance on &lt;em&gt;The Tonight Show&lt;/em&gt; this Friday, January 16.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/341-greg-grunberg&quot;&gt;Greg Grunberg&lt;/a&gt; of &lt;em&gt;Heroes&lt;/em&gt; fame will also be on the show. Grunberg started the band after being getting a few celebrities to play together at the House Of Blues for charity. The success of that event has led to a number of gigs in the US which have, according to Hugh Laurie, &amp;#8220;raised a gargantuan sum of money for charity.&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Grunberg&amp;#8217;s excitement about the project is clear in our &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/video/103-greg-grunberg-talks-to-look-to-the-stars&quot;&gt;recent exclusive interview with him&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/video/103-greg-grunberg-talks-to-look-to-the-stars&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://i2.ytimg.com/vi/QZUBenLDm38/default.jpg&quot;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8220;My oldest son has epilepsy,&amp;#8221; said Grunberg. &amp;#8220;And I saw this band as a wonderful vehicle to help raise money for the [&amp;#8221;Pediatric Epilepsy Project&amp;quot;:http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/398-pediatric-epilepsy-project]. Having band mates who also happen to be in some of the most popular shows on television creates an amazing opportunity to really reach out to our fans to help support these wonderful causes.&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h5&gt;Hoggin&amp;#8217; All The Covers&lt;/h5&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The &lt;em&gt;Hoggin&amp;#8217; All The Covers&lt;/em&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;DVD&lt;/span&gt;/CD set features 13 tracks &#8211; including &amp;#8220;Piece of My Heart,&amp;#8221; &amp;#8220;Mustang Sally&amp;#8221; and &amp;#8220;The Letter&amp;#8221; &#8211; recorded at a gig in LA, and the &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;DVD&lt;/span&gt; includes footage of rehearsals, exclusive interviews and information on the charities that will benefit from sales. It is currently available on Amazon.com and Amazon.de, and will soon be available on Amazon.co.uk.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Even better, we have a signed copy to &lt;strong&gt;give away in a free prize draw&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h5&gt;How to enter&lt;/h5&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To enter our draw, just &lt;strong&gt;guess what song Hugh is going to sing on the show&lt;/strong&gt;. We&amp;#8217;ve included a hint below in case you&amp;#8217;re not feeling lucky today!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Drop us a line at contests@looktothestars.org before the show airs on &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;NBC&lt;/span&gt; on Friday at 11:35pm telling us your name, address, and the answer to the question. All correct answers will go into the random draw.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;small&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Hint: the song was originally recorded by Billy Preston for his 1973 album, &lt;em&gt;Music Is My Life_. It then spent a week at #1 on the Billboard Charts during July of that year. Still too hard? It&amp;#8217;s also Track 3 on the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001IDZGCU?ie=UTF8&amp;amp;tag=looktothestar-20&amp;amp;link&quot;&gt;Hoggin&amp;#8217; All The Covers CD&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt;code=as3&amp;amp;camp=211189&amp;amp;creative=373489&amp;amp;creativeASIN=B001IDZGCU.&lt;br /&gt;

  <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;small&gt;Written by &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/contributor/14-tim-saunders&quot;&gt;Tim Saunders&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/1615-band-from-tv&quot;&gt;Band From TV&lt;/a&gt; will be appearing at the annual &amp;#8220;Hollywood Christmas Tree Lighting at The Grove,&amp;#8221; on Sunday, November 23.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The charity band made up of television stars &amp;#8211; including &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/624-hugh-laurie&quot;&gt;Hugh Laurie&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/341-greg-grunberg&quot;&gt;Greg Grunberg&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/417-teri-hatcher&quot;&gt;Teri Hatcher&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/330-james-denton&quot;&gt;James Denton&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/1584-bob-guiney&quot;&gt;Bob Guiney&lt;/a&gt; &#8211; recently &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/news/1376-band-from-tv-are-hoggin-all-the-covers&quot;&gt;released their first CD/&lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;DVD&lt;/span&gt;, Hoggin All The Covers&lt;/a&gt;. The band was started in 2006 to provide funding for several worthwhile charities &amp;#8211; &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/192-save-the-children&quot;&gt;Save the Children&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/393-the-art-of-elysium&quot;&gt;The Art of Elysium&lt;/a&gt;, the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/1251-child-abuse-prevention-program&quot;&gt;Child Abuse Prevention Program&lt;/a&gt; and the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/21-national-coalition-against-domestic-violence&quot;&gt;National Coalition Against Domestic Violence&lt;/a&gt; &amp;#8211; and to raise money through music to help those in need.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Grunberg had the idea to establish the band after being asked to get a few celebrities to play together at the House Of Blues for charity. The event sparked a great amount of interest, and has led to a number of gigs in the US which have, according to Hugh Laurie, &amp;#8220;raised a gargantuan sum of money for charity.&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Sunday&amp;#8217;s show, hosted by &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/392-jon-lovitz&quot;&gt;Jon Lovitz&lt;/a&gt;, will also feature performances by Grammy Award-winner &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/1798-natalie-cole&quot;&gt;Natalie Cole&lt;/a&gt;, the HB Barnum New Life Choir, and Straight No Chaser, a talented A Capella group best known for their rendition of &amp;#8220;12 Days of Christmas.&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The show starts at 7:30pm, and will be held at The Grove, 189 The Grove Drive, Los Angeles. More information can be found at www.thegrovela.com.&lt;/p&gt;

  <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;small&gt;Written by &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/contributor/14-tim-saunders&quot;&gt;Tim Saunders&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/924-black-eyed-peas&quot;&gt;Black Eyed Peas&lt;/a&gt; singer &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/751-fergie&quot;&gt;Fergie&lt;/a&gt; was in New York yesterday to unveil the new Swarovski star for the Rockefeller Christmas Tree, and now you can bid on a special Swarovski star designed by the songstress in a new charity auction.&lt;/p&gt;

  <title>Band From TV Gets Help From JetExpress</title>
  <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;small&gt;Written by &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/contributor/14-tim-saunders&quot;&gt;Tim Saunders&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/1615-band-from-tv&quot;&gt;Band From TV&lt;/a&gt; has announced an exciting new alliance with ExpressJet.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The group has named the carrier as their official transport provider, which means the company will fly the band to concert events across America free-of-charge.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8220;We are incredibly grateful to ExpressJet for providing transportation for our band all throughout America,&amp;#8221; said &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/341-greg-grunberg&quot;&gt;Greg Grunberg&lt;/a&gt;, who started the band to raise money through music to help those in need. &amp;#8220;All of the money saved from ExpressJet providing this service goes straight to the charities and we are beyond thankful.&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Band From TV is a 9 piece musical ensemble that features the talents of Desperate Housewives&amp;#8217; &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/330-james-denton&quot;&gt;James Denton&lt;/a&gt; on guitar, House&amp;#8217;s &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/624-hugh-laurie&quot;&gt;Hugh Laurie&lt;/a&gt; on keyboards, and Desperate Housewives&amp;#8217; &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/417-teri-hatcher&quot;&gt;Teri Hatcher&lt;/a&gt; on vocals. The full length album follows earlier releases on the House soundtrack and the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/news/367-hugh-laurie-band-from-tv-for-charity&quot;&gt;top-selling version of &lt;em&gt;Minnie The Moocher&lt;/em&gt; on iTunes&lt;/a&gt;.

&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8220;We are proud to associate our expertise in aviation with the talented actors and musicians of Band From TV,&amp;#8221; said ExpressJet&amp;#8217;s Sr. Manager of Marketing, John Yeng. &amp;#8220;We couldn&amp;#8217;t be happier to do our part in raising money for the very worthy charities that each celebrity has chosen.&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;

  <title>Hope North To Benefit From Celebrity Clothes Auction</title>
  <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/156-clothes-off-our-back&quot;&gt;Clothes Off Our Back&lt;/a&gt; has just launched an exciting new auction to benefit &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/1184-hope-north&quot;&gt;Hope North&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Clothes Off Our Back, founded by actors and philanthropists &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/326-jane-kaczmarek&quot;&gt;Jane Kaczmarek&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/325-bradley-whitford&quot;&gt;Bradley Whitford&lt;/a&gt;, is currently holding an online auction with clothing, accessories &amp;amp; memorabilia from the Emmy Awards, Teen Choice Awards, Fashion Week &amp;amp; more. This auction includes items worn by &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/64-eva-longoria&quot;&gt;Eva Longoria&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/417-teri-hatcher&quot;&gt;Teri Hatcher&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/117-scarlett-johansson&quot;&gt;Scarlett Johansson&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/873-neil-patrick-harris&quot;&gt;Neil Patrick Harris&lt;/a&gt;, Jorge Garcia, Tommy Hilfiger, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/410-helen-mirren&quot;&gt;Helen Mirren&lt;/a&gt; and many others. The auction ends on October 21, and all proceeds will benefit Hope North along with three other charitable organizations.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hope North is a 40-acre campus in northern Uganda where refugees, orphans and escaped child soldiers find a place to call home. With an accredited secondary school and vocational training center, this safe and vibrant cultural setting provides a haven for resident students to rebuild their lives through education and job training. A monthly donation as little as $10 can help these youth develop the skills and strength to build Uganda&amp;#8217;s future after a brutal 22-year civil war.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This year, Hope North is one of four charitable organizations selected by Clothes Off Our Back to be beneficiaries of all online auctions held between June 2008 and May 2009. Over 500 celebrities and 200 designers have participated in Clothes Off Our Back auctions since its inception in 2002, helping raise nearly $3 million for various children&amp;#8217;s charities.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8220;The Clothes Off Our Back Foundation started as a way for celebrities to literally give the clothes off their back and make them available to the public to help children in need,&amp;#8221; said Michel Schneider, Executive Director of Clothes Off Our Back. &amp;#8220;It is our pleasure to support Hope North as one of our current beneficiaries. If you love, fashion, entertainment and charity, make a bid and help a child.&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you are interested in making a bid in the &amp;#8220;Clothes Off Our Back&amp;#8221; Emmy Awards Auction, visit &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.clothesoffourback.com/&quot;&gt;Clothesoffourback.com&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

  <title>Band From TV Are Hoggin' All The Covers</title>
  <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;small&gt;Written by &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/contributor/14-tim-saunders&quot;&gt;Tim Saunders&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/1615-band-from-tv&quot;&gt;Band From TV&lt;/a&gt; is set to release its first CD/&lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;DVD&lt;/span&gt; for charity.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Hoggin&amp;#8217; All The Covers&lt;/em&gt; will be released on Amazon on October 28, and will feature a fine selection of the songs the celebrity funksters have been rocking audiences with since being formed in 2006.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Band From TV is a 9 piece musical ensemble set up by Heroes&amp;#8217; star &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/341-greg-grunberg&quot;&gt;Greg Grunberg&lt;/a&gt;, who plays drums, and features the talents of Desperate Housewives&amp;#8217; &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/330-james-denton&quot;&gt;James Denton&lt;/a&gt; on guitar, House&amp;#8217;s &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/624-hugh-laurie&quot;&gt;Hugh Laurie&lt;/a&gt; on keyboards, and Desperate Housewives&amp;#8217; &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/417-teri-hatcher&quot;&gt;Teri Hatcher&lt;/a&gt; on vocals. The full length album follows earlier releases on the House soundtrack and the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/news/367-hugh-laurie-band-from-tv-for-charity&quot;&gt;top-selling version of &lt;em&gt;Minnie The Moocher&lt;/em&gt; on iTunes&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The live CD features 13 tracks &#8211; including &amp;#8220;Piece of My Heart,&amp;#8221; &amp;#8220;Mustang Sally&amp;#8221; and &amp;#8220;The Letter&amp;#8221; &#8211; recorded at a gig in LA, and the &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;DVD&lt;/span&gt; includes footage of rehearsals, exclusive interviews and information on the charities that will benefit from sales, such as &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/192-save-the-children&quot;&gt;Save the Children&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/393-the-art-of-elysium&quot;&gt;The Art of Elysium&lt;/a&gt;, the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/1251-child-abuse-prevention-program&quot;&gt;Child Abuse Prevention Program&lt;/a&gt; and the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/21-national-coalition-against-domestic-violence&quot;&gt;National Coalition Against Domestic Violence&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Band From TV Global Charity Trust was created to provide funding for several worthwhile charities, and to raise money through music to help those in need. Grunberg started the band after being asked to get a few celebrities to play together at the House Of Blues for charity. The event sparked a great amount of interest, and has led to a number of gigs in the US which have, according to Hugh Laurie, &amp;#8220;raised a gargantuan sum of money for charity.&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8220;My oldest son has epilepsy,&amp;#8221; said Grunberg. &amp;#8220;And I saw this band as a wonderful vehicle to help raise money for the [&amp;#8221;Pediatric Epilepsy Project&amp;quot;:http://www.looktothestars.org/charity/398-pediatric-epilepsy-project]. Having band mates who also happen to be in some of the most popular shows on television creates an amazing opportunity to really reach out to our fans to help support these wonderful causes.&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The CD/&lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;DVD&lt;/span&gt; package will also be available from the &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.bandfromtv.org/store.php&quot;&gt;Band From TV website&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
