Green Ball, Take 2 (This Time, With Maroon 5 and Will.i.am)

Washington hasn’t seen this much fun in….well, has it ever seen this much fun? It’s been a great week here in D.C., with so many celebs running from party to party that I’ve got to wonder whether the paparazzi who remained in New York and Los Angeles have anything to do.

Our week started on Sunday, with the Carrie Fisher-hosted Obama Pajama Party, a benefit for the Pajama Program, an organization that puts toasty PJs into the hands of needy children throughout this great land of ours. Among the celebs we bumped into included Bruce Cohen, the producer of Milk and TV’s reigning prince of deadpan, Mo Rocca. Last night, inauguration eve, we headed over to the National Portrait Gallery for the second Green Gala in as many nights. This one, hosted by Vice President Al Gore himself, featured performances by Will.i.am, Maroon 5 (whose lead singer, Adam Levine, is pictured here, Melissa Etheridge and John Legend. Tonight’s big shindig is the Creative Coaltion ball, with a glittering guest list, including Anne Hathaway, Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins, Sting, Maggie Gyllenhaal and a host of others.

I have to hand it to Maroon 5 — not only are they a group focused on pushing forward the green agenda, but they’re also making personal choices at home that reflect those values.

Take for instance the band’s annual Halloween party at the home of lead singer Adam Levine. This year, the party was catered by famous raw food chef Ani Phyo — who whipped up a whole bunch of raw vegan sweet treats for those in attendance. Celebrities dressing up included Kirsten Dunst as Amelia Earhart and Adrian Grenier as Oliver Twist.

Jesse Carmichael of the group Maroon 5 has put together a quick video urging people to put pressure on their representatives in Congress to help pass legislation extending tax credits for renewable energy. His main push — called Vote Solar — is an initiative that “engages with state and local governments to build sustainable solar markets, removing regulatory barriers and laying the necessary groundwork for a solar future.”

Take a look at his video (along with a brief appearance by Adam Levine) below:
