Vocal sensation Céline Dion will pay tribute to her late husband and brother by performing live at the forthcoming Stand Up To Cancer telecast in the USA. 

The event, which will also see performances from the likes of Little Big Town and Keith Urban, is set to take place at the Music Center's Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles and it will be broadcast on more than 40 television networks on September 9. 

Bradley Cooper, who lost his father to cancer back in 2011, will act as the event's executive producer and speaking about it in a statement, he said: 

"We all have a reason to stand up. Stand Up to Cancer is a sustained movement that impacts millions of lives. We honour the personal stories that motivate individuals to fight, and that highlight the urgent need to get new methods of treatment to the patients who so desperately need them."
