Apparently the vast amount is the largest raised in any Telethon we think not only helped by the star live performances from Shakira, Madonna, Beyonce, Rihanna, Alicia Keys and male stars including Jay Z and Sting and many more.

We think the deal clincher was the phones were actually manned and answered by celebrities including Jennifer Aniston, Russell Brand, George Clooney, Leonardo Di Caprio, Brad Pitt, Reese Witherspoon, Nicole Scherzinger, Charlize Theron….the list goes on.
