Madonna co-hosts gala auction
amfAR, the American Foundation for AIDS Research, managed to raise 350,000 euros (560,000 USD). With a global recession looming, this is the first time the auction was conducted in euros and not dollars. The biggest lot of the night was a restored 1976 Porsche 911, which sold for 500,000 euros after hip hop star Sean "Diddy" Combs stop bidding at 450,000 euros. Madonna was in Cannes to promote her documentary about Malawi children orphaned by AIDS. Other celebrities at the auction included Milla Jovovich, Natalie Portman and burlesque artist Dita Von Teese.
