The latest cause Cyndi (as well as Elton John, Idina Menzel, Wanda Sykes and Rachael Harris) lend their voices to is the scourge of hate crimes afflicting the contemporary world. Whether or not Sir Elton's appearance is an effort to regain some credit in the straight gay world, the collection of household names coming out to fight during a period of increased need in the community is invaluable.
