Julia Roberts, Matt Damon, Gwyneth Paltrow join A-listers participating in Stand Up to Cancer telethon

An A-list cast of celebrities is joining a telethon to raise money and awareness to fight cancer. Gwyneth Paltrow, Julia Roberts, Matt Damon, Samuel L. Jackson, and Emma Stone are among the stars participating in the third Stand Up to Cancer telethon, the organization announced Wednesday. Paltrow also is an executive producer for the fundraiser that will be carried commercial-free from 8-9 p.m. EDT Sept. 7 on the four major broadcast networks, ABC, CBS, Fox, and NBC, and more than a dozen cable channels. Musical performances by Taylor Swift, Coldplay, Alicia Keys, and Tim McGraw are planned, and more than 25 movie, TV, and sports stars will be on hand to take phone pledges, said executive producer Joel Gallen. Laura Ziskin, founder of Stand Up to Cancer and producer of its first two telethons in 2008 and 2010, lost her seven-year fight against breast cancer last year. The Spider-Man movie producer was 61.

Instead, it was because the 21-year-old pop singer had clearly forgotten to have a shower before the A-List event as she was sporting some rather unflattering underarm hair. At first glance she looked her usual sexy self but as soon as the tiny black hairs were spotted, even her most loyal admirers are bound to have been turned completely off. Julia Roberts made the same mistake back in 1999 at the London premiere of Notting Hill. As she waved to fans who had turned up to greet the movie star, what they weren't bargaining for was getting a full-on glimpse of the long black hairs spewing out of her armpit. And to make matters worse, she seemed totally unaware of the furore she had created as she carried on beaming. Winner Round 1: Julia's slip up was 13 years ago.
