Tuesday Paul called from work and said we had been invited to a benefit that evening. He didn't know what the benefit was for and he didn't know what to expect. But, I told him to go without me because I don't have any dress suitable for a "black tie" event in NY. Since he had to go anyway, I decided to book myself a ticket for a play while he was doing that. (More about that in another post.)
As I was headed home from the play, Paul called me and said, "Listen to this." Turns out he was in the presence of Aretha Franklin singing RESPECT at the 10th Anniversary Benefit of the Candies Foundation, an organization that helps reduce teenage pregnancy. Here is a list of the other stars who were there: Sarah Palin's daughter Bristol, Rhanna, Bruno Mars, ARETHA! Here's a pic from the internet of Aretha at this event. I need to get my little black dress and soon.
