Brooke Burns and Paris Hilton Rolling Down the Carpet for Charity

In a swanky black tie fete in the Crystal Ballroom of the famed Beverly Hills Hotel, celebrities, athletes and musicians came together to celebrate spinal cord injury awareness and honor Las Vegas producer Gary Scott Thompson. The night featured live performances by Jackson Browne, Miles Doughty of Slightly Stoopid and Jon Foreman of Switchfoot. It raised more than $370,000 for the Life Rolls on Foundation. The donations were in large part from ex-jailbird / current-philanthropist Paris Hilton and a gorgeous looking Brooke Burns.

The red carpet was full of celebs including: Molly Sims who looked ravishing in a short black sequined cocktail dress, complete with soft waves in her darkened hair; David Chokachi arrived with his wife Susan; Andrew Keegan showed up solo.

I know I'm not really supposed to say anything about people attending charity functions, as their altruism is supposed to outweigh their bad taste, but Laura San Giacomo was a disaster in an ill-fitting lavender dress. Nevertheless, she was all smiles down the red carpet!

Best dressed of the evening was definitely Brooke Burns in a buttery yellow silk dress that had a fantastic cut out of the back. The girl seemed so happy to celebrate the evening. After all, she was nearly paralyzed in a diving accident a few years ago.

At the event, Paris Hilton paid a reported $17,500 for surfing lessons with Adam Sandler and Jesse Billauer, a former pro surfer who was paralyzed in an accident. Looks like the heiress may be showing her charitable side after all. Let's just hope she continues to dish out the money to causes that help people.
