Roger Daltrey with Sam Taylor-Johnson

Roger Daltrey took time out to perform at a charity fundraiser in America last night - October 28.

The Who rocker also co-hosted the Strowger Trust Fundraiser For Teen Cancer America event in Los Angeles, in aid of the charity he and bandmate Pete Townshend founded.

He then took to the stage to perform an acoustic selection of best-known hits for guests including Sam Taylor-Johnson, Sadie Frost and Cat Deeley.

Over 30 artists donated works to be auctioned off on the night, and Pete Tong manned the DJ decks.

The Teen Cancer America charity was founded in a bid to improve the lives of teenagers and young adults with cancer, echoing the work done in the UK with Teenage Cancer Trust.

Roger previously said of the charity: "At a time when your body is changing, your social life is everything and you're still trying to figure out who you are, getting cancer can seem like an impossible blow to take. But thanks to Teenage Cancer Trust, thousands of teenagers are taking it, and coming out fighting."
