​See that pretty girl up there? She's one reason to tune into the 44th annual Jerry Lewis Muscular Dystrophy Telethon this Labor Day weekend, though you were probably already planning on doing so. After all, when else can you see Lynyrd Skynard, David Archuleta, the cast of Glee and Carrot Top all in one disease-fighting 21-hour span?

Yes, Westminister-based Vietnamese entertainment company Thuy Nga will be taking part, recreating a number from their recent Paris by Night 100 performance in Las Vegas. If you read out cover story on Thuy Nga, you'd know that the hundredth show might just end up being Paris by Night's last. 

According to an email from choreographer Shanda Sawyer, the number will be "the big Egyptian Finale" from Paris by Night 100, and will include singers Nhu Loan (pictured above) and Toc Tien, as well as 18 dancers. Unlike most Paris by Night acts, this rendition of the song will be in English. They'll be performing in the 8 p.m. PST hour of the telethon, which starts at 6 p.m. PST Sunday.
