CANNES (FRANCE): Stars of the movies and the music world raised more than USD 15 million for AIDS research at Cannes film festival's most glamorous party, organisers said on Friday.

The social highlight of the festival, the charity dinner laid on by the American Foundation for AIDS Research (amFAR) brought in a host of big hitters among them Antonio Banderas, Eva Longoria, Andie MacDowell, Adrien Brody, Tom Jones, Tommy Hilfiger, Pamela Anderson and Donald Trump's youngest daughter Tiffany.
