Charity Begins at ... Caesars Palace!

Liz Smith

Want to go on “The View” and be Whoopi Goldberg’s guest? Want to spend a day on the set of Glenn Close’s movie “Damages”? Want to enjoy a walk-on part on “The Sarah Silverman Program”? Want to bid on Wayne Newton’s Arabian horse? Want a backstage tour of "The Today Show" with Meredith Vieira?

Want tickets to Tony Bennett’s July 12 gig at Caesars Palace? Want to see Michael Kors’s “Fashion Week” runway collection? Want to go on Rachael Ray’s cooking stint? Want to see Bette Midler in her hot new Las Vegas show via roundtrip tickets on JetBlue?

Well, from now until May 29th you can buy yourself into the celebrity world it seems by logging on to www.charitybuzz.com. This would raise money for Bette’s community gardens effort in New York City.

I’m thinking these opportunities are well beyond my discretionary spending limits, but I am wondering, Liz Smith, if there are available, reasonably priced prints of Ann Richards’ “Doodles”? Wouldn’t that be something special to have? You know, my married name is Willis and Ms. Ann’s maiden name was Willis so if she had married my husband, she would have been………..quite unhappy because they would have been arrested for bigamy. Peace and grace

Yep Beth. Way out of my price range too. I like the idea of the Ann Richards’ “Doodles”.

I looked at the different auctions. And was really quite impressed with the stars efforts to raise awareness. BRAVO! BRAVO! Now, let me see where is that 6 grand I need to hang with Sara or Bette? lol! I really liked the Step Up womens network! Again, BRAVO!

And I’ve always considered myself a pacifist,; turns out I’m a pacifier. Thanks for the compliment, Liza with a D! Peace and grace

we would not mind seeing Tony Danza but thank-you any way it is to far of a drive and I can not fly. But thanks any way.

Eeh Gawds, I wish I had a Wayne Newton Aramus horse, oh wait, I do. (And, he is just divine!) Wish I was rich, would bid on several - what wonderful causes!

These are all way beyond my means, but I think I would have to tie down my mother to keep her from bidding on Tony Bennett. When we saw him in Las Vegas in 2002 she was swooning like a school girl. She was actually giddy and convinced that he had noticed her in the audience and was singing directly to her. What a great entertainer to still have that kind of talent. He’s also an excellent fine artist! Oh heck! I must be smitten too.
