On Saturday, Russell Simmons and Rush Philanthropic hosted their 15th annual “Art for Life” at Fairview Farms in Water Mill, New York. The celeb-filled fundraiser, sponsored by Cadillac and General Motors, brought out a few of our faves.  Including those ridiculously cute kiddies of Kimora's.

The Simmons family made quite the entrance.  TheYBF.com attended the event.  And though Russell's ex Kimora Lee wasn't in attendance like usual, she made a $1 Million dollar donation.  Guess her new husband said her money can be there...but she doesn't need to be...

Angela attended in a summery peach Balenciaga dress that she paired with metallic pumps by Saint Laurent.  Loves it.

JoJo looked a little disheveled....but he's a "Simmons."  He can do that....we guess.
