A star-studded crowd was on hand for the 12th
Annual Lupus LA Orange Ball and it helped raise over $550,000 for research and
support for patients living with the incurable autoimmune disease.
The evening’s entertainer was Natasha Bedingfield, whose
friend has lupus, and introducing the nonprofit founder was Paula Abdul, who
had lupus but is now in remission. Abdul said she feels great and has never
been healthier. She also mentioned that she’s a big fan of organics, but it’s
hard to adhere to (http://goo.gl/xvj7J).
Earth, Wind & Fire bassist Verdine White doesn’t have
lupus, but attended because his doctor, Soram Khalsa, was an honoree,
recognized for his efforts in treating patients with eastern and western
medicine. EWF begins a US tour June 7th in Chicago and will release
a double album in September called Now, Then and Forever. White stays green by
recycling and conserving water. “Don’t use so much water when you brush your
teeth and recycle your trash,” he advised.
Red Tails actor Kevin Phillips was also in attendance to
support a friend whose mother succumbed to lupus. “I’m always recycling, not
leaving the water running, and having my bills emailed to me. Anything I can do
to contribute,” he said.
