Kat at the 2006 Carousel of Hope Ball
Katharine McPhee
2006 Carousel of Hope Ball
October 28, 2006
Beverly Hilton
Well what can I say, she looks absolutely AMAZING. But then again, she always do. *sticks out tongue*
The ball was for a charity event, benefiting diabetes and honoring Quincy Jones and Clive Davis.
There was a lot of A-listers at this event including Halle Barry, Sharon Stone, Teri Hatcher, Hilary Duff, The Hilton Sisters (Duh? It’ stheir Hotel), etc… Also performances by Usher, Jennifer Hudson, Barry Manilow and our very own Katharine McPhee. 
I think this is probably the very first "BIG" event she has ever attended ever since she got off American Idol.
This totally proves that Katharine is headed for bigger and brighter things. I mean, If you take a look at all the success that she’s had so far… The Duet with Bocelli, Her 2.5 Million Sexy Hair Deal, Cover of Teen People, Featured in OK Mag, etc…
And that’s just in after what? 2 weeks after American Idol season 5 ended. I mean, she got all that media attention and to think that hasn’t even put out an album yet. It’s crazy really!
Okay so down to her performance. She was supposed to be singing her signature song "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" but when they realized that Whitney Houston was coming (It’s a big deal now cause it’s her very first appearance since the break-up) they changed it to "I Have Nothing".
On a side note: Clive was the one who asked Kat to sing that song.
The funny thing here was that, Randy Jackson (One of the AI Judges) was there at that event as well. And when Katharine sang "I Have Nothing" on Idol he said that the song was too big for her and that she’s trying to prove that she’s better than Whitney. (Yeah right, jack ass!)
However, Katharine nailed the song again and guess what? Whitney Houston led the standing ovation and later on said to Kat that she was very proud of her. Haha! In your FACE Randy! Mwahaha! Now how cool is that? I mean come on! It’s Whitney Houston for crying out loud! and that is such a huge accomplishment! Whoohoo!
This is one crazy week for us Kat Fans! Haha! Truly awesome! Now if only she could give us her new single now… and then later on her album. Can’t wait!
Oh and we tried to pass by Beverly Hilton last Satruday hoping to see a glimpse of Kat. Nyahaha! But I guess we were too late. Then again the pink carpet is held inside so I doubt that I could catch a glimpse. Oh well… Someday I might just see her. I will try and go to that Megan Mullaly show and hopefully I can get tickets for it. So anyways, that’s it for now. Chao!
