Earlier this week, One Direction member Louis Tomlinson and his mother Johanna Deakin hosted the Believe in Magic Ball. Hardly the first fancy dress event to benefit charity, the Cinderella-inspired affair didn't just benefit a philanthropic organization, it gave terminal and seriously ill children the chance to be princesses and princes.
The Believe in Magic Ball gave the sick kids a chance to enjoy themselves in a truly magical setting, making the dreams of many come true. For girls, this included handmade wands and beautiful outfits.
Along with his band mate Liam Payne, Louis made headlines by donating a considerable amount throughout the evening via auctions. The pair also gave away fellow One Direction members Niall Horan's autographed guitar and designer t-shirts belonging to Harry Styles. Other British celebrities were also in attendance.
