Antonio "L.A." Reid along with longtime creative colleague Kenny "Babyface" Edmonds produced and created a smash hit dedicated to combat cancer. "Just Stand Up" features Mariah Carey, Beyonce, Mary J. Blige, Rihanna, Fergie, Sheryl Crow, Miley Cyrus, Melissa Etheridge, Ashanti, Natasha Bedingfield, Keyshia Cole, Ciara, Leona Lewis, LeAnn Rimes and Carrie Underwood. All sales of the star-studded single will benefit cancer research.
All of the singers will come together to perform the song live on Sept. 5 during the "Stand Up to Cancer" television special, set to air simultaneously on ABC, NBC and CBS. Other stars expected to turn out for the hour-long fund- and awareness-raising program include Jennifer Aniston, Lance Armstrong, Katie Couric, Sally Field, Salma Hayek, Meryl Streep, Forest Whitaker and Reese Witherspoon.
In 2007 the Entertainment Industry Foundation founded the Stand Up to Cancer program, which calls on entertainment-industry people and platforms to help fight cancer.
