Last Friday night was a magical evening at The Beverly Hilton Hotel, where ANDREA BOCELLI accompanied by long-time girlfriend VERONICA BERTI, launched his new Andrea Bocelli Foundation amongst a group of friends and fans. The fundraising Gala, produced by Studiomusica and Jo Champa, featured an auction and performances by Andrea Bocelli himself as well as icons DAVID FOSTER, HEATHER HEADLEY, ANNA MARIA MARTINEZ and a special surprise performance by MICHAEL BOLTON. In addition, Bocelli wearing a Girard-Perregaux 1966 Small Second watch presented the first foundation award, a Girard-Perregaux World Timer timepiece, to iconic music recorder and producer QUINCY JONES for his worldwide philanthropic efforts. The night came to an end with Bocelli’s iconic song “Con Te Partiro”.
Other celebrities attending included EVAN RACHEL WOOD, CAMILLA BELLE, JULIE BENZ, CHAKA KHAN, LINDA RAMONE, CHRIS SPENCER and others.
