Tonight, more than 50 of your favorite celebrities will share one stage to raise funds for the fight against cancer.

Lance Armstrong, Christina Applegate, Hilary Swank, Forrest Whitaker and many more personalities from TV, film, sports and music will share the stage in an unprecedented television event. These celebrities will come together--as will the television networks ABC, CBS and NBC--for a one-hour, commercial-free, prime-time broadcast starting at 8 p.m. They will educate, move and entertain you, and will share personal stories of loss and hope. The unbelievable song "Just Stand Up" will be performed in support of Stand Up to Cancer by Mariah Carey, Beyonce, Mary J. Blige, Rihanna, Melissa Etheridge and Carrie Underwood (to name a few). The track is just unbelievable--take a listen to it below. All proceeds will go to Stand Up To Cancer when you purchase the song on iTunes. Don't forget to visit the Stand Up To Cancer Web site for more information.
