When it comes to helping kids in need, it takes a village. Right?
Right! At least that's the way Ewan McGregor told it at the Go Go Gala Friday night (November 20), as Cirque du Soliel stiltwalkers swirled around him during the cocktail hour that preceded the glittery dinner party held at Social Hollywood.
"I got involved because of my neighbors," the handsome Scotsman explained, pointing to his buddy Scott Fifer, the ex-lawyer-turned-screenwriter who created the Go Foundation in order to help in-need children worldwide find a better future. "He came over to my house and convinced us that we needed to be involved with him and this amazing organization." And in fact, the Go Go Gala was actually packed with kids--well-dressed children of the privileged who are also participate in the Go Foundation's push to get American kids involved in helping youth around the world.
McGregor,
who shares a happy abode in an unnamed "very important neighborhood" (he joked)
in L.A. with his wife Eve Mavrakis, has three children, including a daughter
adopted from Mongolia in 2006. That adoption was a direct result of his
experiences encountering a lot of needy kids on his 2004 motorcycle journey
from London to New York, traveling 19,000 miles, a journey 
"There's so much that needs to be done," he said seriously, "I work with UNICEF, and with Scott, and we're doing what we can to make a difference wherever children need help."
What they did at the Go Go Gala was bring together people like model Cheryl Tiegs, singer and "Tru Jackson, VP" star Danielle Bisutti, ex-Eurythmics musical genius Dave Stewart, and "Desperate Housewives" hottie Jessie Metcalf for an evening of dinner and music (Stewart played with his latest band, the Rock Fabulous Quartet).
"This is a great organization," Metcalf shouted at the raucous cocktail party preceding the dinner. "I only work with two charity organizations, and this one is so important, because it gets American kids interested in what is happening all over the world."
Jonah Hill agreed, as did Blake Mycoskie, who as the founder of TOMS Shoes gives a pair of shoes to a child in need for every pair of shoes they sell, was being honored for his humanitarian work at the gala.
"When I started the company three years ago, people thought I was crazy to give away shoes to children," Mycoskie grinned. "I guess they don't think I am so nuts any more!"
Certainly not at this village's party, that's for sure.
