During the band’s stop at Croke Park stadium in the Ireland capital on Saturday, July 8, Martin noticed a wheelchair-bound fan crowd-surfing and invited him on stage.

Once there, the 29-year-old named Rob improvised a song with the legendary rocker and even accompanied Martin’s lyrics with a harmonica.

“He is 29-years-old, and training is his job,” Martin sang. “Here we are in Dublin, what an awesome crowd. I’ve been around the whole wide world, never seen anybody so loud.”

Naturally, fans whipped out their phones to capture the unique moment and Coldplay, themselves, shared a video of the experience on social media, writing “Amazing scenes in Dublin this evening!”

Following the unforgettable night, Rob told BBC News how the event unfolded.

“A lad accidentally fell on me and was extremely apologetic. He and his friends insisted on lifting me and getting me a better view,” he explained. “Chris Martin called me up onto the stage; suddenly I was on stage with Coldplay.”

Rob concluded his interview with a hopeful message: “In a time where we’re seeing the horrors of London, Manchester, and Paris, I hope this shows that if you get yourself out there, you never know what’s going to happen. I would like to thank Chris for an amazing experience.”

In a recent interview with W Magazine, Kutcher gave a glimpse into his personal life and his decision to get involved with the cause.

“Once I started to gain some level of fame, I was constantly being asked to lend my name to this or that,” Kutcher said. “And I was wondering, Is there a single cause that I can really get behind?”

After catching a Dateline special about sex trafficking, his eyes were opened to the horrific crimes, many of which were occurring in his own backyard of Los Angeles. From there, Kutcher educated himself on the matter, and he found out that many of these cases (approximately 70 percent) occurred online.

Kutcher was one of the first celebrities to realize the importance of social media in self-promotion (he was the first person on Twitter to have a million followers), and over the years he built relationships with some of the bigwigs in Silicon Valley.

“This was a medium I had a lot of experience with,” he said, “where I knew a lot of folks who could help.”

Motivated to make a difference in the world and save lives, Kutcher and his then-wife Demi Moore started Thorn, a nonprofit organization that “leverages technology to combat the sexual exploitation of children.”

Kutcher was tight-lipped in regards to Thorn’s methods (“Revealing our tactics would get in the way of our goals,” he said) but he did report that roughly 6,000 trafficking victims and 2,000 traffickers have been identified through the organization’s work.

He continues to work as an actor (season two of his Netflix series The Ranch premieres June 16), but Kutcher has found his life’s true calling, and there’s plenty more to be done.

“We have some research that suggests that people exposed to images of child sex abuse are more likely to commit a hands-on offense,” he said. “And so our next big initiative is to eliminate all child pornography on the Internet. It’s a pretty ambitious goal, but I think we can do it.”

Whether they’re taking us through the “History of Rap,” reminiscing about Camp Winnipesaukee, or sending up the La La Land at the Golden Globes, these two buds always know how to have fun and always take us along for a ride.

Speaking of a ride, their latest collaboration sees them peddling around the Hamptons during Memorial Day weekend in what they refer to as “bro-biking.”

The “Can’t Stop This Feeling” singer shared a video to his Instagram of himself riding his bicycle. When he tilts the camera behind him, we see Fallon along for the ride. The duo shout “bro-biking!” and ride in tandem back-and-forth across the screen.

Bro-biking. @jimmyfallon #memorialdayweekend

If the past is any indication, expect “bro-biking” to become the latest trend amongst fans on social media!

In the past few months, Ellen Degeneres teamed with Shutterfly to pay off a Sudan refugee’s student loans and joined with Wal-Mart in awarding 41 high school students college scholarships, while model Chrissy Teigen paid off a woman’s beauty school tuition. Now, Nicki Minaj is getting in on the charitable fun.

On Saturday night, the singer tweeted about a contest she was offering which would pay for the winner to fly out and join her at the Billboard Music Awards in Las Vegas on May 21.

However, rather than enter the contest, one follower asked if she would pay for his college tuition instead.

“Show me straight A’s that I can verify w/ur school and I’ll pay it. Who wants to join THAT contest?!?! Dead serious. Shld I set it up?” Minaj responded.

— NICKI MINAJ (@NICKIMINAJ) May 7, 2017

That tweet opened an onslaught of requests from other followers who tweeted proof of their grades along with explanations for each of their respective situations.

If u give me a 4.0 then I’ll keep my end of the bargain. https://t.co/Esqs9rwfPn

— NICKI MINAJ (@NICKIMINAJ) May 7, 2017

Initially, Minaj made the stipulation that her fans had to have a 4.0 grade-point average to receive tuition, but she got loose with the rule once students began with smaller payment requests of remaining classes.

That’s it? I’ll send it tmrw. dm me ur bank info babe. Next! https://t.co/i4TVmsqDoA

— NICKI MINAJ (@NICKIMINAJ) May 7, 2017

After roughly forty minutes of answering the wishes of her fans, Minaj closed the contest and once more gave her word that she’d pay up as soon as possible.

Ok u guys. It’s been fun. Let me make those payments tmrw then see if I have any money left. I’ll do some more in a month or 2.

Who You’ll Help

Today and every day 400 babies are born with HIV. We can get that close to zero as soon as 2020 if we all act now.

The life-saving ARV pills that prevent HIV+ moms from passing the virus to their unborn babies cost just 30 cents a day in sub-Saharan Africa. When you donate to win a (RED) experience on Omaze, you’re helping to ensure more moms get access to that medication, and you’re helping get closer to the goal of an AIDS FREE GENERATION.

Let’s end AIDS now.

Giving Tuesday, aka #GivingTuesday, started in 2012 by the 92nd Street Y and the United Nations Foundation as a way for people to take a break from the post-Thanksgiving shopping extravaganza and give back to charities and causes that are close to their heart.

It’s also a great way to kick off the holiday season by paying it forward and even finding a new cause to focus on for the upcoming new year.

There are many good celebrities and organizations that are getting involved this year. Whether it’s matching donations or sharing support for an underserved initiative, the celebrity news headlines, and our Twitter feeds, are bursting with #GivingTuesday notifications!

Good Organizations Increase Donations on #GivingTuesday

Many companies and causes are doubling donations, which helps to increase the impact of contributions on this important day.

Radisson

The Radisson hotel brand announced its #ShareYourPlate initiative, which invites social media users to share photos of their plates of food today to raise awareness for the hunger problem worldwide. For every photo shared on Instagram and Twitter using the hashtag #ShareYourPlate, Radisson will donate $1, up to $500, to benefit Feeding America and The Global FoodBanking Network.

“This campaign supports the brand’s commitment to help source one Million meals through strategic efforts in our communities,” said Rich Flores, vice president, branding, Radisson. “We have declared through Radisson’s responsible business program, there is No Room For Hunger and are committed to driving awareness on the ground at our hotels and even on social media through initiatives like #ShareYourPlate”.

Humane Society and Halo Pets

The Humane Society teamed up with organic pet food brand Halo Pets to match donations with a bowl of food for a shelter animal.

“So grateful for @halopets support this #GivingTuesday! For every $1 donated, 1 bowl of food will help feed a rescued pet! #GivingFoodsDay,” the Humane Society tweeted.
