Los Angeles brought its gift for top quality entertainment out in full force last night on World AIDS Day, with a unified mission to shine a spotlight on the difficult past, the great progress made today, and the hopeful future.

Since 1987, the AIDS healthcare foundation has provided medical care for more than 1.6 million people living with and affected by HIV/AIDS in 45 countries. Their important messaging and outreach could not have been more evident at AHF Presents World AIDS Day - The LA Revival at The Forum.

Before he took the stage, Rainbow spoke with me at Forbes and said that he was thrilled to hear that AHF asked for him. I said I had to do it because I was getting ready for my show in New York and they were fans of my videos.

The dance world was the hardest hit by AIDS. I buried half my boys. My kids need to be aware of what is happening around them while they are here to celebrate life and celebrate the joy of what can be. Everyone is talking about Covid but they need to remember that AIDS is the cause of death for millions of people every year.

The first of the evening's two headliners was Hollywood and music superstar, and Oscar-winning actress, Jen Hudson, who commanded the room with "And I Am Telling You I'm Not Going" from her 2006 film Dreamgirls. Hudson took on songs from her recent portrayal as Franklin in the movie Respect and concluded her set with a beautiful rendition of "Hallelujah" which she told the crowd is her favorite song to sing.
