The stars have lined up for the 2007 Children in Need Appeal, the BBC’s annual TV charity event. Airing tonight on BBC One, the evening of special programming will be hosted by Terry Wogan, and will feature special live performances by the Spice Girls in LA, Kylie Minogue, Westlife, Annie Lennox, David Gray and Sugababes.
The Spice Girls are also helping out by donating funds from their new single “Headlines (Friendship Never Ends)”. [Amazon: CD, MP3]
Irish boy band Boyzone have reformed for the event; the band split seven years ago when lead singer Ronan Keating went solo.
Last year’s appeal brought in £33 million ($66 million) for the charity, which strives to improve the lives of disadvantaged children.
As we are reporting in other news today, Children in Need is also one of the beneficiaries of a new fundraising book of celebrity handprints.
