The stars came out for A Celebration of Paul Newman’s Dream on Monday night at New York City’s Lincoln Center to pay tribute to the late actor and his SeriousFun Children’s Network, which sends sick children around the world to summer camp. Though performer Trisha Yearwood told us she had never spent her summers by the campfire, and Elvis Costello didn’t take part across the pond (“They didn’t have them in England. They barely had tent pegs,” he said), we did get to hear about singer Josh Groban’s warm weather adventures.
”One of the reasons I’m here tonight is because my summer camp experience was so awesome,” he told Metro. “One was in Maine and one was in Michigan. [One] was called Interlochen and the other one was called Camp Winona. I canoed and I did archery and I sang; I was in theater there. It was just great.”
But Groban’s just being humble. That would be the famed Interlochen Arts Camp in Michigan he’s referring to, which is kind of like the summer camp version of Juilliard. So even as a boy, he was melting the hearts of people everywhere with that voice of his.
I am in love with street art okay you guys. I’m just gonna go and squat around the streets all day loving art and never going home.
I know one that would love to live there.
Tony Bennett, Josh Groban ‘This Is All I Ask’ Video Premiere (EXCLUSIVE)
There’s something magical that happens when legendary crooner Tony Bennett gets in front of the camera. The passion and joy he brings to the song seems to flow forth, creating a sort of aura around him. Watching Bennett sing is a treat enough, but when the icon is joined by another artist, well … that’s next level awesome.
Take Bennett’s latest video with new school icon Josh Groban. Filmed for the series ‘Great Performances,’ the duo join voices to perform their recent duet, ‘This Is All I Ask,’ off Bennett’s ‘Duets II’ album. The stripped down set and unedited vocals epitomizes Bennett’s recent series of artist collaborations with the likes of Lady Gaga, Michael Bublé and Carrie Underwood … just to name a few. Watch the full video below and for more of Tony’s “great performances” check out his ‘Duets II: The Great Performances’ DVD when it hit stores on March 6.(Source)
