life: SAMSUNG 10TH ANNUAL HOPE FOR CHILDREN GALA – PRES. BILL CLINTON, JENNIFER LOPEZ, JOHN LEGEND, JASON MRAZ… #HOPE4CHILDREN (6.7.11)

This past Tuesday, Samsung Electronics America, Inc. hired me to report from their 10th Annual Hope For Children Gala at Cipriani on Wall Street in New York City. I was given a Samsung Galaxy Tab (which is perfectly sized and super efficient) to blog and capture the event.

I was scheduled to interview Miss Haley Moss, 16 year old honoree/published author living with Autism, but since time was running low I didn’t get the chance. I did, however, get to watch great performances by JOHN LEGEND, JASON MRAZ and HARRY CONNICK JR. while sitting next to WENDY LAM/NITROLICIOUS and MISS INFO/HOT97. PRESIDENT BILL CLINTON delivered an amazing speech and JENNIFER LOPEZ honored him with an award. It was all pretty amazing…

I’m so honored to have been part of such a prestigious and worthwhile cause, such as SANSUNG’S HOPE FOR CHILDREN! Children all over the world need our help and this is definitely a worthy cause. #HOPE4CHILDREN
