'A day after the storm one of Jersey’s most famous own went back to his home town of Sayreville to see the devastation first hand,' Kristen said. 'What Bon Jovi – sorry, Jon Bon Jovi – saw served to humble, inspire, and move him.'
Kristen joined a host of Hollywood beauties, including Gossip Girl Blake Lively, who wowed in a scarlet Isabel Marant dress, and Katie Holmes, who added a touch of old Hollywood glamour to proceedings in Tom Ford.
