So Many Stars Came Together to Support Stand Up To Cancer

Hollywood stars came together for Stand Up To Cancer's annual television special on Friday night. The event raises money for the SU2C initiative, which helps fund cancer research. Halle Berry, Jennifer Aniston, and Gwyneth Paltrow were just a few of the big names that took the stage to urge viewers to donate. Kerry Washington, Reese Witherspoon, and Jessica Alba also lent their star power to the cause, as did Pierce Brosnan, who shared his own experience losing both his first wife, Cassandra, and daughter, Charlotte, to ovarian cancer. Sofia Vergara, who is a cancer survivor herself, shared the stage with Kevin Bacon while her Modern Family costar Eric Stonestreet opened the show. Others, like Joe Manganiello, Grimm's Bree Turner, Jordana Brewster, and Dane Cook, sat onstage in the tech lounge answering phone calls, chatting on Facebook, and responding to messages from donors and survivors. The charitable night also saw performances by Ariana Grande, Jennifer Hudson, and Dave Matthews. To get involved or donate, visit the website now.
