Are You Ready For The 2009 LA Gay & Lesbian Center Gala & Auction?
My good friend (and sometimes roving reporter) Darion is working with the L.A. Gay & Lesbian Center on their 2009 Gala and Auction this year (which takes place THIS SATURDAY October 24) and would like me to pass along some great info about this year’s event. Up for auction at this year’s event are some very cool items and experiences including: 2 VIP Tickets to see Lady Gaga in concert with limo transportation to her LA concert along with a meet and greet with Lady Gaga herself, 2 Tickets to The Showgirl Must Go On in Las Vegas, NV plus a meet and greet with The Divine Miss M Bette Midler, A walk-on role on How I Met Your Mother with Neil Patrick Harris, a signed iPod by Kylie Minogue, a signed guitar from Maroon 5, 2 Tickets to any Columbia Pictures world Premiere in 2010 (where you can walk the red carpet like your favorite star), and MUCH MUCH MORE!
For me, the big prize has to be the chance to win a walk-on role on HBO’s True Blood:
All proceeds from the auction and ticket sales for the gala ball will go to the L.A. Gay & Lesbian Center which provides advocacy work, seniors programs, empowering youth programs, life-saving health services and personal development courses for GLBT members of the community … which is an endeavor that I fully and wholeheartedly support. This year’s Gala & Auction promises to be a complete blast!!!

My love and respect goes out to Darion and everyone involved with this year’s event. It is my sincere hope that they are able to generate LOTS of revenue for the L.A. Gay & Lesbian Center. Woot!!

This is such a good cause! One of my friends volunteered at the center, and there are so many people in need. One of the stories that really touched me was of the teens whose parents were so hateful to them at home that they didn’t feel safe there. They would spend time at the Gay and Lesbian Center to be around people who accepted and supported them for who they really are, and to be in a safe enviornment. More power to this wonderful organization! (and those are some really amazing prizes!)

Uh is that supposed to be Lady CaCa in the blue outfit? Either she got massive plastic surgery or overpaid the airbrusher because it looks nothing like her.

Lol, she got her nose done so that’s why it looks nothing like her.
And OMG! The walk-on role for HIMYM would be AWESOME!
