DEMI AND ASHTON ATTEND THE SPOLIGHT INITIATIVE AWARDS SUNDANCE

I always enjoy The Creative Coalition’s arts advocacy events, and the 2011 Spotlight Initiative Awards at the Tao Sundance space this past week, was no exception. The star-studded event was attended by the likes of Demi Moore & Ashton Kutcher, Kate Bosworth, Kevin Spacey, Penn Badgely, Jeremy Irons, Zachary Quinto, Cheryl Hines, Stanley Tucci, Adrien Grenier, Paul Bettany, Ellen Barkin, and others. The CEO of TCC, Robin Bronk, kicked off the party by welcoming guests and introducing TCC President, Tim Daly-who is clearly passionate about the arts. In fact, he mentioned that entertainment is the #2 export from the United States. Interesting! We also had a chance to view the recent PSA produced by TCC which focuses on the healthy portrayal of women and girls in the media.

Over the course of the evening, awards were handed out to the cast of Margin Call, Barkin, Alan Arkin, Maria Cuomo Cole (Living for 32), and Isabella Rosselini (Animals Distract Me) After Barkin was presented her honor by Another Happy Day cast mate Bosworth (who looked warm and toasty in a flowy dress and faux fur shearling jacket), Ellen affectionately referred to her younger co-star as her “daughter.”

Meanwhile, Demi & Ashton (who continued to after-party at the Bing Bar) remained close in the corner of the room, and Kutcher was the first to jump up and hug his wifey before she headed to the stage as part of the honored cast of the Margin Call. Funnyman Tucci entertained friends by the bar, and when it was time for him to speak, he joked that the servers were making too much noise when serving the dinner! Simon Baker exemplified the Sundance look with a flannel shirt & messy hair. He even topped it off with thick black glasses, but still managed to look good. Quinto did a similar fashion scheme-ski cap, sweater, and jeans-like he had just come off the mountain. As the night wore on, Grenier, Irons, and Spacey, all mingled with each other and happily posed for pictures with admiring party-goers, who seemed thrilled to meet their on-screen heroes.
