BEIJING, Nov.4 -- The rock-and-roll sisterhood gathered in London on Sunday as female singers helped to raise money to find a cure for breast cancer.

    The Women in Rock concert was held at the Royal Albert Hall and featured performances from female stars such as former "Spice Girl" Melanie C, Joss Stone, "Bananarama," and Bonnie Tyler.

    The show was organized by Hard Rock as part of its series of Pinktober events which help to fund research into a cure for breast cancer.

    In keeping with the Pink theme, stars and guests walked a pink carpet on their way to watch the concert.

    Other performers included Jamelia, Nerina Pallot, the cast of "Mamma Mia," Queen's Brian May bucked the woman only trend by accompanying a group called "Woman."

    In the UK, money raised by the gig went to the Caron Keating Foundation, a charity that supports both cancer sufferers and their families
