George Clooney and Brad Pitt teamed up with other A-list actors to help raise over $2 million for the American Foundation for Equal Rights. The actors performed a live, condensed reenactment of the Proposition 8 trial. Dustin Lance Black’s play 8 was first performed last September, but on March 3, the stars came out to raise awareness with a modified version. Over 200,000 viewers streamed the play live and the video currently has over 500,000 views on YouTube. In reference to the issue of gay marriages, Clooney told The Hollywood Reporter, “At some point people are going to look back and wonder why this was ever an issue.” The play also included Glee’s Chris Colfer, Matthew Morrison and Jane Lynch, Modern Family’s Jesse Tyler Ferguson plus Jamie Lee Curtis, Kevin Bacon and many more. ~Renita Naraine
