Last week, Kylie Minogue was on hand for a special ceremony at the Empire State Building where she flipped the switch to light up the famed skyscraper in honor of DKMS Linked Against Leukemia charity and this week, it’s Hilary Duff‘s turn. Earlier today, she was on hand for an event where she was allowed to flip the switch to light up the Empire State Building in honor of the 24th Annual AIDS Walk New York Event which gets underway this coming Sunday morning. Here are a few pics of Hilary at today’s lighting event and some info from the event’s press release:

Gay Men’s Health Crisis (GMHC) and AIDS Walk New York (AWNY) announced today that the Empire State Building’s famed floodlights will soon honor the 24th annual AIDS Walk New York. On Thursday evening, May 14, beginning at dusk, the world-famous spire will glow red to kick off the AIDS Walk weekend. Special guest Hilary Duff will lead a Lighting Ceremony in the lobby of the Empire State Building. The event will begin at 12 p.m. and last for about 15 minutes. During the ceremony, Ms. Duff will throw a prop switch to illuminate a scale model of the Empire State Building in the building’s lobby for members of the media and invited guests. On Sunday morning, May 17, Ms. Duff will also co-host the AIDS Walk Opening Ceremony in Central Park, and will then walk with her team “Hilary Duff — Walk with Love.” Additionally, she also appears in public service announcements and a variety of other AIDS Walk communications focusing on prevention and encouraging New Yorkers to register for the event. “In tough times, it’s even more important for people to get involved,” says Duff. She continues, “Everyone should find a cause they believe in whether it is something in your local community or something as big a global issue as AIDS.” “From sunset to midnight on Thursday, New Yorkers will see the solid red color, synonymous with AIDS awareness, beaming from the building. The red lights will serve as a reminder that AIDS is still a matter of great urgency in New York and throughout the United States,” said Dr. Marjorie J. Hill, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer of GMHC, the world’s first AIDS organization and AIDS Walk New York’s primary beneficiary. “The lighting will also honor hundreds of thousands of walkers and donors who have participated in the AIDS Walk over the event’s 24-year history,” said Craig R. Miller, Founder & Producer of AIDS Walk New York. “As one of the largest, most esteemed, and most diverse public events in New York City, we are so proud that the Empire State Building has again chosen to recognize and promote the vital work of GMHC and AIDS Walk New York,” Miller added. This is the third year the event has been so-honored.

I am thrilled that Hilary Duff has teamed up to participate with this year’s AIDS Walk New York. I’ve always been impressed with her previous charity work and this time is no exception. She seems so committed to working for important charities and events that really could use her help. You may recall that she appeared in the Think Before You Speak PSA for GLSEN to help educate kids about using harmful language in school. Even at a young age, she understands that her help and association with these events will help inspire others to participate themselves. Hil D. is my girl. I love her for all the amazing charity work she continues to do :)

Aussie popstress Kylie Minogue, who just announced that she will tour the US for the first time ever in her 20-year music career, was on hand in NYC last night to help light the Empire State Building in honor of the Coty Fragrances partnership with the DKMS Linked Against Leukemia charity campaign. Here are a few pics from last night’s lighting ceremony:

The lighting of the Empire State Building was timed with the 3rd Annual Linked Against Leukemia Gala which seeks to raise awareness for the DKMS organization, the world’s largest non-profit bone marrow donor center. When asked about her upcoming US tour, Kylie had this to say: “I’ve wanted to tour in America and Canada for years and know that fans have been waiting a long time for this. I’m thrilled that the opportunity has finally arrived.” No Kylie, the thrill is all ours :) And I’ll be seeing you in Oakland, LA and NYC this Fall!!

Remember, Kylie will be appearing on The Today Show tomorrow morning (during the 4th hour with Kathy Lee Gifford) on NBC. Make sure you tune in! Kylie is invading the US, y’all. It’s been a long time comin’!!!
