Oracle of DelphiAustralian Stars Help Bushfire Telethon
February 15th 2009 05:32
Some of Australia's biggest stars participated in a telethon to aid victims of this week's deadly bushfires ravaging the state of Victoria, among them Nicole Kidman and husband Keith Urban, who personally donated more than $300,000 in relief funds.
"As Australians, I think the biggest thing is that, no matter where you are in the world, we support each other and we rally," the 41-year-old Australia actress said in a message delivered live via satellite. "That's why we wanted to show our support and we would like to donate 500,000 Australian dollars [$327,000 U.S.] on behalf of our family to the families that need it now."
Joining the A-list couple in rallying public support were Russell Crowe, Naomi Watts, Hugh Jackman, Mel Gibson, Rachel Griffiths, Orlando Bloom and his model-girlfriend Miranda Kerr, Ellen DeGeneres and a host of musicians like k.d. lang, politicians and sports legends, all of whom sent appeals asking for money on behalf of the Nine Network's Australia Unites telethon.
