Despite the gray day, spirits were more sunny than soggy as 60,000 people gathered for a party with a purpose: to fight extreme poverty.<\/p>\n<p>As always, this year\u2019s event \u2014 hosted by Wolverine himself, Hugh Jackman \u2014 was as much about the music as the message.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"nyp-slideshow-modal-image wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><figcaption>Jelly Roll taking
