SPOTTED: SNL alum Joe Piscopo, Don Felder of The Eagles, Bill Duke, Omar Akram, and producer Moghul at the Sheila Kar Health Foundation’s 11th Annual Valentine’s Day Heart Seminar and Gala benefit held at Beverly Wilshire (a Four Seasons Hotel) in Beverly Hills, CA.
The event was appropriately held over Valentine’s weekend and featured a free seminar offered by Dr. Sheila Kar on heart and health awareness. The event concluded with a $500 per plate gala where Temple Flower apparel gave the audience a fashion show.
During dinner, guests were treated to an incredible evening of talent which included renditions of Eagles’ classics “Tequila Sunrise” and “Hotel California” by the incredible Don Felder.
Honoree professor Sanjay Roy who founded the world-renowned Barefoot College gave the keynote address about his efforts in rural communities in India to bring education to the masses. Roy mentioned that they like to train women, not so much men, to become solar engineers because the women stay local and help the village once their education is complete but the men immediately leave after certification to find jobs in big cities.
