Sin City had a boost of star power over the weekend.

A-list celebrities traveled to Vegas and lent their support at Keep Memory Alive's 26th annual Power of Love Gala at MGM Grand Garden Arena. The event raises funds for Cleveland Clinic Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health.

Many rock icons performed at the special event, with Van Halen's Sammy Hagar hosting the event.

"I'm an easy one! You call me and you get five or six guys. I'm bang for the buck. A one-stop shop," Hagar tells PRIDE.

Alice Cooper hit the stage during the exciting night and opened up on the longevity of his classic song "School's Out."

"That song is the national anthem right around May and June. I get emails from India and China! I became the Francis Scott Key of 'School's Out.' If you remember the last day of school and you got three months of summer coming up, that's what I wanted to capture on that song. There were so many Peter Pan's in rock 'n' roll and no Captain Hook. I'll gladly be Captain Hook," Cooper says.

Hilarious comedienne Nikki Glaser also brought the laughs in Vegas and she'll be returning very soon. The star has a residency coming up at The Venetian with comedian David Spade.

"I'm on the road constantly... some say chronically. I might have to have it looked at. Some of the funds might be going to that tonight. David is one of my best friends and he's my favorite comedian," Glaser says.

While she may be on the road all the time, Glaser took time last year to guest judge on RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars 7.

"That was a meaningful day to me. I'm still high off that experience of witnessing that and getting to work with them that day. I'm dying to get back in there. I will cancel gigs! Screw David Spade. I will come back to Drag Race!"

Just before the concert kicked off, Paula Abdul stopped by on the carpet to show her love for the LGBTQ+ community.

"I've been such a longtime supporter. I have supported the community for decades and decades and will continue to do so. My closest family and friends are the most beautiful people and I would do anything for help," Abdul says.
