Ellen Degeneres Joins Fight Against Cancer

Newly married, Ellen Degeneres, will be working the phonebank during the live telecast of the upcoming Stand Up to Cancer benefit on September 5, 2008.  E! describes it as “the Oscars, the Emmys and the Grammys rolled into one.”

It sounds great (I will be definitely watching) and it’s fantastic that it’s for a very worthy cause!  Many other stars are expected to attend including new mom Jessica Alba, cancer survivor, Christina Applegate, Charlize Theron and Katie Couric, who lost her husband, Jay, to colon cancer. 

Make sure you try to watch it and donate money if you can!
