David Beckham was supported by a bevy of beauties at the
6th Biennial UNICEF Ball in Beverly Hills on Tuesday.
Selena Gomez, Mariah Carey, Nicole Kidman and Heidi Klum
were among a host of sultry stars dazzling on the red carpet at the lavish
Beverly Wilshire Four Seasons Hotel, and helping to raise over $2.5 million for
the charity's lifesaving programs.
David was being honoured with the charity's Humanitarian
Leadership Award during the ceremony, for his work helping children through his
Seven Foundation.
The 40-year-old football star looked very handsome as he
arrived at the bash, sporting a classic black tuxedo and bow tie; almost
stealing the limelight from his glamorous companions.

'I can’t wait to continue doing all I can for Unicef and
my 7 Fund, 7.org, to help children across the world.'

Covering up her famous figure: The usually daring Heidi
Klum took a more simple approach
|
Presented by Louis Vuitton, the UNICEF Ball marked the
launch of LOUIS VUITTON for UNICEF, a global partnership between the
humanitarian organization for children and the luxury fashion house to help
support children affected by conflict, disease, natural disasters, and other
situations that threaten their safety and well-being.
The celebrity guests, which also included Michelle
Rodriguez, Miranda Kerr and Heidi Klum, pulled out all the stops when it came
to their red carpet looks for the charitable evening.
Several of the stars picked plunging outfits, including
Selena, who left little to the imagination in a daring red leather creation
that similarly hinted at her slender legs with cutout flowers.
The gown had a ruffled collar and cap sleeves, a zip all
the way down the front and unusual cut-out sections down each leg.

Cute couple: Jennifer Connelly, dressed in glittering red,
was joined by husband Paul Bettany
|
Selena also sported gold sandals and matching rings, and
left her glossy raven locks loose but let her outfit be the centre of attention
by keeping her make-up simple, with nude lips and a touch of smoky eye shadow.

Top performer: Multi-Grammy Award winner Mariah performed
Always Be My Baby, We Belong Together and Hero for the A-list guests on the
night

The singer was positively glowing when she took to the
stage with a wind machine tousling her tresses to add intensity to her stage
performance on Tuesday.
Picking out a similar colour, actress Nicole Kidman
stepped out of her comfort zone that night and plumped for a particularly racy
plunging neckline and thigh high split.
She wore her hair up to reveal her bare decolletage and
as she walked, her dress parted to reveal her sensational pins.

Labyrinth co-star David Bowie on Sunday, following an 18-month battle with
cancer.
While she put on a brave face at the event, the actress
shared her sadness at the loss of her friend in a statement to EW on Monday.
