Rufus Wainwright at the Hollwood Bowl

Rufus sings with Judy Garland's daughter, Lorna Luft

Some of the most memorable moments of the evening included, Rufus telling a story about being saved from drowning in the Chateau Marmont pool by Betty Buckley. He sang "Zing! Went the Strings of My Heart" complete with an homage to the dance that Judy performed during this number. He walked out into the audience to kiss Debbie Reynolds and dedicate "You Made Me Love You" to her. Stephen Oremus conducted and played piano. The amazing Bucky Pizzarelli played a guitar solo in "How Long Has This Been Going On". Martha Wainwright sang "Stormy Weather" and "Someone to Watch Over Me". Kate McGarrigle played piano when Rufus sat center stage to sing "Somewhere over the Rainbow". In a sweeping fuscia evening gown, Lorna Luft brought the house down on both "After You've Gone" and "Carolina in the Morning".

For the encores Rufus came back on stage dressed as Judy, complete with fishnets and high black pumps.

Also in attendance to share in the glow, we spotted Jake Gyllenhaal, Reese Witherspoon, Rebecca Romijn, Jerry O'Connel, Patton Oswald, Rod Stewart. Ron Rifkin, Barry Diller, David Geffen, Jimmy Fallon, Laurie Metcalf, Carrie Fisher, Hilary Swank, Santino Rice, and Dita Von Teese.

After the show, we sipped champagne with Project Angel Food supporters, board members, and staff. We spotted Bruce Villanch and met and the extremely tall Santino Rice from "Project Runway". When Rufus walked into the party, everyone cheered and snapped photos, including the secret celeb who gave me these photos from the performance to share with all of you.
