Leona Performs for Mandela

After attending a dinner in honour of Nelson Mandela's 90th birthday on Wednesday, Leona continued to sing praises for the birthday boy at a fundraising concert in his honour at Hyde Park in London.

Proceeds from the event are in aid of Mandela's 46664 charity, which is currently campaigning to raise awareness of the severity of the disease.

46664 was Mandela's prison number while he was incarcerated for his anti-apartheid views.

Nelson Mandela Turns 90

The stars were out in fine form to help celebrate the 90th birthday of a man who se name has been synonomous with peace over the years.


A dinner was held in Nelson Mandela's honour on Wednesday in London. This dinner was just one event in a series of events to celebrate the life of this political laureate. A big outdoor concert is also scheduled for today (Friday) in Hyde Park.

The fundraising concert will be attended by an audience of exactly 46,664. 46664 was Mandela's prison number while he was imprisoned for 27 years.

Performing at the concert will be Leona Lewis, Annie Lennox and Amy Winehouse along with a host of other musicians.

Below are pictures from the arrival of celebrities at the Mandela dinner.

Nicole and Joel have Mummy and Daddy Time

New parents to baby Harlow Winter left their bundle of joy at home so that they could enjoy a night out without having to change a diaper.

Nicole and Joel attended Cartier Love Charity Bracelet launch party which seeks to raise money for 16 global charities.

Nicole looked simple and elegant in a floral halter dress while her dude, ever a creature of habit, wore his trademark white shirt and black pants.

Hey you can't fault him for trying.

Butterfly Ball

Katherine Heigl looked regal as she attended the Butterfly Ball - a fundraising effort for Chrysalis which aims to find employment and housing for homeless men and women.

Demi Moore and her rent-a-husband (yea I gave him permission to leave me for the night) were also in attendance and I still can't believe that Demi is a lady in her forties. It's amazing how beneficial taking care of yourself can be.

And I had to post this picture of Rebecca Gayheart just because I absolutely love her dress. It's a pity she didn't have McSteamy on her arm- I guess one Grey's cast member was enough.
