Elton John and Steven Tyler would love to see you the night of the Oscars. It’ll cost you, though.
Tyler is auctioning two spots at his table at the Elton John AIDS Foundation Academy Awards Viewing Party dinner on Feb. 26. The event will be hosted by John and partner David Furnish in West Hollywood.
Tyler struck a jovial tone in a statement about the event:
“How would you have to dress if you were sitting next to me at a banquet table at Elton John’s Oscar Party? Sounds like a loaded question, eh? Put your money where your mouth is and arrive as you will and come as you are to help me support the Elton John AIDS Foundation!”
The evening includes a cocktail reception, dinner by “Iron Chef” Cat Cora and a performance by Foster the People following the Oscars telecast.
Over the years the fete has drawn A-listers such as Halle Berry, Nicolas Cage, Kevin Costner, Kevin Spacey, Denzel Washington and Catherine Zeta-Jones, while musical entertainment has been provided by artists including Mary J. Blige, James Blunt and John Legend, Grace Jones, and Florence & the Machine.
The current high bid is $13,500. The experience is valued at $25,000. Proceeds benefit the Elton John AIDS Foundation. If you win you and your guest will be subject to security screening. You have to get yourselves out there and find your own place to stay. And you cannot resell the item.
Here is the link if you’d like full details and the chance to place a bid.

Why no Comments on J-Z the cheap skate? You can go to Boortz and get a link to many of your Famous Democrats that say they LOVE the poor and want to help. You can see their tax returns and people like Terreza Heintz Karry(spelling) gives less than 3% of her income. Jay -Z is no different than all the Loud Mouth Democrats. Add Ted Kennedy to the list of lying pigs. All these RICH Dems want to use the tax payers money to redistribute funds but they don’t GIVE CRAP to CHARITY like they Preach for others to do.

I want to see WHERE the money actually goes. We just found out Susan G Koman BREAST CANCER gives money to Abortion Clinics. That is not why I gave her money & I will no longer giver her foundation money.

Dear Kim Z’s:
The Jay-Z item contains a reader poll rather than commenting. I am sure Neal Boortz appreciates you visiting his site. I am not sure this blog will be very helpful if you’re interested in researching abortion and breast cancer. Ted Kennedy is deceased so likely is not contributing money to any charities these days.
Hope that helps,
Jennifer
