'Glee' cast and David Archuleta show up for Jerry Lewis telethon 2010
Something else to look forward to on Labor Day, oddly enough, is the 2010 Jerry Lewis telethon for Muscular Dystrophy. The 45th annual show, which started at 9 p.m. ET on Sept 5 and continues through 5 p.m. ET on Sept 6, boasts a particularly star-studded line-up this year.
David Archuleta tweeted to fans that his late-Sunday appearance on the Las Vegas telethon will include a debut performance of "Things Are Gonna Get Better."
And he's not the only "American Idol" in attendance. Returning producer Nigel Lythgoe and former contestant Ace Young will both lend their talents as emcees -- nobody expects 84-year-old Lewis can't go for over 21 hours all on his own.
Elsewhere in the TV-verse, the full cast of "Glee" are on deck for the telethon to perform their rendition of "Proud Mary" -- which you might remember as the wheelchair routine from Season 1.
Other stars making time for the charity include Richard Belzer, Enrique Iglesias and Nancy O'Dell. All proceeds from the telethon go to the Muscular Dystrophy Association of "Jerry's Kids." Last year's outing brought in $60.5 million.

David Archuleta's performance was amazing...a beautiful song and a very nice one for the MDA Telethon.
Where is Jerry? Have been watcing all day and haven't seen him?
I spoke too soon.
Did anyone see Jerry Lewis? I haven't
Amazing performance by David A. It brought tears to my eyes. His voice is getting better and better. How could people not to love him? He is gorgeous, down to earth, nice, sweet. He is the whole package. May god bless him always and let him stay as long as can be in this music business. I preorder his album already and I read his book twice, I cried, I laughed, I smiled, it is worth every penny.
