Laguna Hills soul man Aloe Blacc is experiencing a career awakening years after his chart-topping hit “Wake Me Up.” Besides music, Blacc is heavily involved in various charitable causes, including Malaria No More and Stand for School Equality. In tonight's 'Evening of Music and Comedy,' he teams up with funny woman Rita Rudner, who's out to serve some side splitting laughs in unison with Blacc's delightful hip hop songs, to benefit cancer awareness and treatments. Add in the popular Funniest Housewives troupe, and you have an event that's as enjoyable and exciting as it is beneficial. Hosted by self-proclaimed “Anti-Aging Housewife” Cindy Burns— whose cancer treatment foundation this event's proceeds go to— this will be one feel-good night.
