Last night, Jennifer Lopez was joined with current boyfriend, Alex Rodriguez, and ex-husband Marc Anthony, to host a live disaster relief telethon called One Voice: Somos Live. Airing on NBC and Univision, the event aimed to raise awareness and garner donations for Puerto Rico, which remains devastated by Hurricane Maria. Of course, manning the phones were a who’s who of Lopez’s celebrity friends, including Kim Kardashian, Bethenny Frankel, Jamie Foxx and Heidi Klum. Musical performances from Bruno Mars, Demi Lovato, and Gwen Stefani were also televised during the benefit show. Additionally, there were appearances from Marisa Tomei, Debra Messing and Ellen DeGeneres, who shared their efforts to raise money for Puerto Rico on social media.

The One Voice telethon requested that viewers to dial in for a chance to donate to Hurricane Maria relief efforts in Puerto Rico while they speak to one of the numerous celebrities present at the emotional event. Before performing at the star studded event herself, Jennifer Lopez has also recently pledged to raise at least one million dollars to donate to Puerto Rico, and all of the proceeds received from the Somos Una Voz telethon and benefit concert will be distributed to those working on relief efforts in affected areas of Puerto Rico, the Caribbean and Mexico.
