New York, April 23, 2007 – The carpet was orange at the Food Bank for New York’s Can-Do Awards on Monday, where Jimmy Fallon and The Edge (of U2) were honored for their commitment to hunger relief. Even on the orange carpet - orange is apparently the color of hunger awareness – the good looking celebs at the gala managed to shine. David Bowie and Iman were surprise guests. Helena Christensen brought Kate Bosworth, and said “We’re just kind of making it like, a girlfriend night”. “We’ve been friends for a while”, Bosworth added. (Insert your own Kate Bosworth/hunger relief joke here.) “I don’t really like giving long speeches”, Jimmy Fallon said before the proceedings began. “I just want to come in, and say thank you to everyone out there who’s doing more work than I am. And then you eat dinner with strangers and get drunk, and then you go home.” So, he wrote a song. “Tonight, I’m playing “Car Wash for Peace”, Fallon informed us. But never fear, there were speeches: Bill Clinton said his piece, as did The Edge. Those handsome guests included Ed Burns and Christy Turlington, Stanley Tucci, Michael Stipe, Chelsea Clinton, Julianne Moore and Bart Freundlich, Patti Smith, Rachael Ray and proud new parents Elvis Costello and Diana Krall.
