Kat to perform at the High Hopes Tribue Dinner in Denver

Kat has joined the galaxy of stars performing at the High Hopes Tribute Dinner in Denver September 29th. The show also features performances with David Foster, Smokey Robinson, Babyface. George Lopez will host as Master of Ceremonies. The night will provide entertainment reminiscent of those seen at the Carousel Balls presented in Denver by Barbara and Marvin Davis from 1978 through1985.

Steve Farber, Colorado leader and founder of the American Transplant Foundation will be the honoree at the benefit for the Barbara Davis Center for Childhood Diabetes and the Children’s Diabetes Foundation which serve over 5,000 children with diabetes. Tickets are limited as the event is approaching a sell-out. For information call 303-863-1200.

At least we know what she's going to be doing after filming her new movie.  Kat is awesome.  I can't think of another young celebrity that does so much charity, so often.  I'm sure there are other young celebrities that do, but I can't think of anyone right now, can you?

I'd love to go but have a feeling that the tickets for this kind of affair will be out of my reach. I did call the phone number listed, this morning. But, the Diabetes Foundation isn't open on Saturday and there was no general extention to enter for information on the affair. Just my luck! It's rather sad because I think I'm the only Denver McPhan (I actually live 32 miles north of Denver) on KMF and if I can't afford to attend, then I guess we won't have any first hand reports on her performance. I may try to get in touch with some of the local TV and Radio stations to see if they have any more info. Wish me luck!

Tickets, needless to say, are at a premium. Call 303-863-1200 before it's too late.

DAVID FOSTER CURRENT BIOGRAPHY
http://www.executivevisions.com/projectdetails.asp?ProjectID=114

In 1993, Foster was named Billboard Magazine’s "Top Singles Producer" and "Top R&B Producer." He was also the year’s top Grammy nominee with seven nominations, taking home his third award for "Producer of the Year" for The Bodyguard movie soundtrack.

Foster’s producing credits include songs on such albums as Celine Dion’s Grammy Award-winning “Falling Into You,” which spawned his two hit singles, “Because You Loved Me” and “To Love You More.” He also produced Natalie Cole’s “Unforgettable” and Barbra Streisand’s “Broadway” and “Back to Broadway.” From 1994-1997, four of his productions – “Unbreak My Heart” (Toni Braxton), “I Will Always Love You” (Whitney Houston), “I Swear” (All-4-One), “Because You Loved Me” (Celine Dion) – each reached No.1 on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart where they remained for a total of 42 weeks. This translated to holding down the coveted #1 spot for an unprecedented 20% of a 4 year period.

This is indeed great news!Just the thought of Kat being in the same venue as David Foster should give us hope of a potential collaboration!!I was watching some of his youtube videos...the man is a musical genius!I hadn't realized that he had written many of the Chicago hits with Peter Cetera!The man can write,and produce, a hit at the drop of a hat!Let's keep positive thoughts about their reunion and hopefully this may be televised!!! And yes,it does seem that Kat is constantly keeping to her "giving back"mantra and that is so admirable!!

Good luck with that Moms. Usually tickets for this type of event are rather expensive; the funds go to charity. I think it's a great thing for Katharine to once again work with DF. It may be wishful thinking, but hopefully it is a sign that she will collaborate with him.

Since there's much fascination with David Foster on this board, here's a couple of articles about his recent gala in Calgary:

A session with Foster
http://www.canada.com/calgaryherald/news/entertainment/story.html?id=2a9a9aeb-a3d1-4e9a-bcc2-343032a7cca2&k=75886

Q: I've been looking at the people you've worked with and it's unbelievable. Two Beatles, Michael Jackson, Madonna. . . Is there anyone who got away? Is there someone you still want to work with?

A: It's funny you should say that. Last night I was at the Justin Timberlake concert and I was thinking what an incredible artist he is. It's not really my forte what he does, but I produced one hit for *NSYNC back in the day called Music Of My Heart, and we've known each other peripherally since then. Last night he suggested we get together in December and write some songs, and I thought that was very cool.

Foster hits charitable chord at gala
http://www.canada.com/calgaryherald/news/entertainment/story.html?id=1243726f-cd4c-4dd3-97e7-aa5aa7fe7c7b

Renowned Canadian producer David Foster, a 14-time Grammy Award winner who has worked with everyone from Michael Jackson to Michael Buble, raised $3 million from Calgary's elite for the charity foundation named after him at a star-studded gala Saturday night.

Close to 1,800 Calgarians dressed to the nines paid $1,500 for a dinner and concert event featuring Lionel Richie, Peter Cetera, Sinbad, Beverly Mahood, Kalan Porter and others, all to benefit the David Foster Foundation.

Yes, the thought of a reunion between Kat and David Foster is encouraging. I'd love nothing more than to see the two of them work together in the future. If that actually happens, Kat's sophomore CD could be spectacular and regain her all those fans that loved her singing the standards on AI!

My thoughts as well. I have always thought that Kat's "godfather", David Foster believed in her talent since the time he and Andrea Bocelli met her during AI and worked with her on the concerts with Bocelli in California and at the JC Penney Jam.  Added to this was Foster arranging Kat's hit "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" which is still charting on Billboard today!!!  And Kat has continued to support Foster's charity events as well.  Now that a year has passed since Kat has had the opportunity to go her own way musically, it's time for Kat to go back to her mentor and "godfather" David Foster for his proven successful direction!!!







We are definitely working together -- working on a record together. She sings so magnificently, it's just amazing -David Foster-
