British funny man Ricky Gervais has revealed that he has joined a very special star for a new charity ad.

The comedian has posted a blog in which he says he has recorded the ad with Pink for PETA.

“Did a cinema charity ad for PETA,” wrote Gervais. “It’s a great idea and I play a rabbit, and Pink plays an alligator. I’ll post it when it’s all finished and shiny.”

Gervais is no stranger to charity work. Last year he appeared in the 2nd annual Stand Up for Heroes: A Benefit for the Bob Woodruff Foundation, and has also been involved in benefit shows for the Teenage Cancer Trust. He also committed the profits from a series of 2006 warm-up shows for his 2007 stand-up comedy tour to MacMillan Cancer Support.

The new ad sounds intriguing… be sure to check back to Look To The Stars and we’ll let you know when it’s shiny enough to be released.

Roger Daltrey rocked a field of fans at a small charity gig last week.

Frontman for The Who, Daltrey played to 400 people who packed themselves into a huge tent at West Well Farm in the sleepy English village of Tingewick – about 20 miles from Oxford – to raise money for some local charities, including MacMillan Cancer Support, Florence Nightingale House, and the Oxford Kidney Unit.

The singer performed for 75 minutes in a lineup of musicians that included members of Deep Purple, Ringo Starr’s son, Zac, and famed session musician Robbie McIntosh.

The annual event – known as the Party in the Paddock and held every year since 2006 – has raised over US$100,000 for charity.
