Obama to return to Los Angeles in June for star-studded fundraisers — The Hill
President Obama’s decision to support gay marriage this week is paying off in a big way with the LGBT community in Hollywood.
Obama is expected to attend an LGBT gala in Los Angeles on June 6, where ticket prices range from $1,250 to 25,000 a piece. As part of the same trip, Obama is also expected to attend a fundraiser hosted by Ryan Murphy, the co-creator of the show “Glee,” and his fiance David Miller.
Like the fundraising dinner hosted by actor George Clooney on Thursday night in Los Angeles, which raked in $15 million, the dinner is expected to bring in millions of dollars for Obama’s reelection campaign. Obama’s acknowledgement of same-sex marriage on Wednesday has prompted a slew of big dollar donations from the gay community.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the LGBT gala is now seeking a larger venue to meet skyrocketing demand for the event, which may include a performance from singer Pink, and could reel in a haul of up to $10 million.
