Fifty-seven million...

A telethon record: the Hope For Haiti Now benefit, which aired this past Friday night, raised $57 million...and counting. The all-star event aired on major networks, several cable networks and streamed online. Several stars, including Halle Berry, Brad Pitt, Reese Witherspoon and Morgan Freeman were manning the phones while Alicia Keys, Bono, Stevie Wonder and more gave somber yet touching performances. Some of my favorite and best of the night:
Christina Aguilera

Mary J. Blige

Jennifer Hudson

Bono, Jay-Z & Rihanna
