While most American citizens were eating chips and watching football on Sunday, Dame Helen Mirren and Rosario Dawson were rubbing shoulders with some of the most inspiring leaders in the world.
Helen and Rosario hosted the Nobel Peace Prize Concert in Oslo, Norway which honored laureates Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, Leymah Gbowee and Tawakkol Karman.
The women were acknowledged for "their non-violent struggle for the safety of women and for women's rights to full participation in peace-building work."
"We know how much women are suffering in the world," said Helen. "And yet somehow we cannot organize ourselves as a human culture to do anything about it. And these women do."
The concert brought out some of music's hottest stars such as Jill Scott, Sugarland and Evanescence.
Past Nobel Prize laureates include Mother Teresa, Nelson Mandela, President Barack Obama, Archbishop Desmond Tutu, Kofi Annan and Al Gore.
