Radiohead's gig in Los Angeles on Sunday night raised more than $500,000 (£307,650) for the relief effort in earthquake hit Haiti.

Entrance to the Oxford band's one-off show at The Music Box Theater on Hollywood Boulevard was only available to the highest bidders in an online auction in a bid to make as much money as possible for the blighted country.

Hollywood stars Justin Timberlake, Daniel Craig, Rosanna Arquette, Jessica Biel, Charlize Theron, and Anna Paquin were just some of the names who shelled out for tickets.

The band played a sprawling two hour set at the 1,300 capacity featuring songs 'Paranoid Android', 'Fake Plastic Trees', 'Karma Police', 'Pyramid Song', 'Reckoner' and 'Street Spirit (Fade Out)'.
