Elton John’s famous Oscar party raised over 3.7 million dollars in just 3 short hours on Sunday night.
The 18th annual celebration which hosts all of the biggest names in town, was attended by Betty White, Nicole Richie, Miley Cyrus, Victoria Beckham, Heidi Klum, and Perez Hilton.
Some of the items auctioned off at the event were Elton’s Grammy costume ($30,000) and a watch from his collection ($90,000) as well as a photo of President Obama at college ($60,000) and a week at Elton’s property in Nice, Italy. ($140,000)
Elton has said of the event, “I’m so blown away this year. We’re supposedly struggling though a recession and yet it keeps getting better every year.”
