The 35-year-old Irish star hosted the fundraiser where he invited a host of pop stars to perform at his Emeralds and Ivy Ball, including band Lawson and former Catatonia frontwoman Cerys Matthews, reported Contactmusic.

Keating also hit the stage for a short set, which included a duet with Matthews on Christmas classic 'Fairytale of New York'.

The event, held at Supernova here, pulled in USD 1.4 million for Cancer Research UK and the Marie Keating Foundation, which the singer set up after losing his mother to the disease.
