As promised, here are more pics from Tony Bennett's 80th Birthday bash last night in Hollywood. Kelly Clarkson, Stevie Wonder, Marc Anthony and the legend himself all performed. Tons of stars came out to support the famous singer, and Tony supports them right back. Recently the singing legend appeared on The X Factor (the UK version of American Idol) and found that he didn't agree with the way the artists on the show were being treated. He said,
“I’m a little disturbed that the businessmen are making a fortune, but after the first record, they drop the artist and go with the next. It’s not fair because the artists all have such good potential. They all have the possibility of really becoming good performers if they just had the place they could break into and learn how to do it properly.”
No wonder he's being honored - what a great guy! For more pics of the singer, George Clooney, Billy Crystal, Kelly Clarkson, Marc Anthony, Stevie Wonder, and Bruce Willis just read more
Way to go Tony!!! I love him
