Millions of dollars were raised during a special celebrity charity telethon last night for victims of Australia’s devastating floods.

Stars such as Hugh Jackman, Simon Baker, Terri Irwin, Bindi Irwin, The Veronicas, Kasey Chambers, Tina Arena and X Factor Australia winner Altiyan Childs supported the telethon, hosted by Eddie McGuire, Leila McKinnon and Karl Stefanovic.

The two-hour telethon ran 90 minutes overtime, with phone lines crashing after a few minutes. This didn’t stop over $11 million being donated during the program.

Crikey! Did you know tomorrow, November 15, is Steve Irwin Day at Australia Zoo in Brisbane?

There’ll be a ton of ripper activities down at the zoo for the day, kicking off with a free BBQ breakie in the carpark from 6am. Gates open at 8am, and Terri Irwin will launch the day’s festivities at 10am at the Crocoseum, along with Captain Paul Watson from the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society. This will be followed by a Bindiwear fashion parade, a special performance from Bindi and the Crocmen, an Australia Zoo Wildlife Warriors show featuring Terri feeding the Crocodiles, a performance from Australia’s very own Thirsty Merc, and the chance to be the first to play the new Nintendo Wii and DS Planet Rescue games: Wildlife Vet, Animal Emergency, Endangered Island, and Ocean Patrol – designed to teach young players to save, nurture and heal endangered animals.

And in true Steve-o tradition, come along dressed in your Khakis and get 10% off admission to Australia Zoo and a free gift.
