The 26th Annual Carousel Ball for the Children's Diabetes Foundation is taking place tonight honoring George Clooney!  In addition to George Clooney a huge list of stars will also be attending!  Adrien Brody, Kenny "Babyface" Edmonds, Antonio Banderas, Stacy Keibler, Cheryl Burke, Carrie Ann Inaba, Shaquille "Shaq" O'Neal, Magic Johnson,  Sidney Poitier, Sharon Stone, Jane Fonda, Neil Diamond, Tatyana Ali, Jessica Capshaw, Sophia Bush, Alyssa Milano, Smokey Robinson, Donna Mills, Joan Van Ark, Jay Leno and many others are all scheduled to attend.

This event is taking place inside The Beverly Hilton's International Ballroom.  Celebrities will begin arriving at 6:30 p.m.  This event is taking place inside the hotel.  You're welcome to sit in the lobby and you shouldn't have any issues as long as you're dressed nicely, act like you belong and behave yourself.  Fans who run up to celebrities screaming for autographs and/or pictures or asking staff where the celebrities are will probably be shown the door and well behaved fans may be asked to leave as a result.

Pay attention to the celebrities you might want to approach for an autograph and/or picture.  Do they look approachable?  If so, ask if you can have an autograph and/or picture.  Once again, being rude will make it easy for the celebrity to refuse and probably get the fan kicked out.  So if you're planning on attending, behave yourself and remind others not to spoil it for others!  Sharon Stone is a celebrity I'd probably recommend avoiding any interaction with.

 The Beverly Hilton is located at 9876 Wilshire Boulevard and directions can be found here.
