The show will also include appearances by Backstreet Boys, Billy Bob Thornton, Billy Burke, Blake Shelton, Carly Pearce, Cedric The Entertainer, Cody Alan, Jackson Dean, JB SMOOVE, Kelsea Ballerini, Max Thieriot, Nate Burleson, Stephen Colbert, Taye Diggs and Zac Brown Band, alongside real life heroes Mark Starling, Tank Spencer and more.

“In times of crisis, United Way mobilizes the caring power of communities to help people in need,” says Angela F. Williams, President and CEO of UWW. “United Way Benefit for Hurricane Relief is an opportunity to unite people to help the individuals and families impacted by the devastating hurricanes. Because united is the way to create long-term and lasting resiliency for individuals, families and communities.”

“Paramount Global and its brands are proud to collaborate with United Way Worldwide on the United Way Benefit For Hurricane Relief in reaching audiences across the U.S. to help those impacted by Hurricanes Helene and Milton,” says Melissa C. Potter, Executive Director, Content for Change, Paramount Global and United Way Worldwide board of trustee. “I have seen firsthand how United Way rallies local leaders, cross-sector partners, and the community to aid people during times of crisis, and the resources raised by this benefit event will help those in need to recover and rebuild.”
