Award-winning actress and singer Kristin Chenoweth hosted a breast cancer awareness event at The Carlyle Hotel on New York’s Upper East Side along with The MOMS Denise Albert and Melissa Musen Gerstein last week.
The MAMARAZZI soiree was sponsored by breast cancer support initiative Warriors in Pink powered by Ford, and was an impactful one with several heartfelt speeches including one from breast cancer survivor and Warriors in Pink “Model of Courage” Lorraine Elmo.
The MOMS’ Denise Albert, daughter of TNT sportscaster Marv Albert, who late last year received a shocking breast cancer diagnosis just months after a normal mammogram, took off her wig for the first time in public as Kristin Chenoweth had expressed a wish to see her without it.
Chenoweth then followed with a speech revolving around how inspirational it is to see Denise fight her cancer so fiercely and how Melissa is there for her through thick and thin just like a sister. She also went on to explain how during lower days, music helps to inspire and lift one up and how music has helped her get through the devastation of having both a mother and two aunts battle breast cancer. Said Chenoweth, “Music is the vibration that heals the soul”.
Chenoweth just released “The Art of Elegance,” her first album of American Songbook classics via Concord Records, and in November she’ll return to the stage in MY LOVE LETTER TO BROADWAY, a limited engagement at the Lunt-Fontanne Theatre.
In 2017, Chenoweth will reunite with executive producer Bryan Fuller in his upcoming Starz series “American Gods,” in the role of Easter.

I’m so happy that I can share this platform with the world because I see the benefits every day.
