Pia Toscano - Hard Rock Cafe DC

October 6, 2011 - It's PINKTOBER. "The answer is out there. Together we'll find it." Pinktober is Hard Rock Cafe's campaign for breast cancer awareness.

October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month and Hard Rock Cafe Washington DC along with HOT 99.5 rocked for the fight against breast cancer in presenting an appearance and performance by Pia Toscano of American Idol fame. Proceeds from the evening will benefit Breast Cancer Research at City of Hope.





Pink Jams!
recently signed a partnership deal with Hard Rock Café and as a partner, I and others were given complimentary tickets to attend the event. Pink Jams! is a Washington DC area non-profit promoting early detection and breast cancer awareness to young men and women.

There was a VIP meet and greet with Pia Toscano before her performance and then Pia performed by singing several songs, some of which were sung during her time on American Idol. Pia was amazing to hear and she also answered questions from the audience. Pia donated a dress that she wore during her American Idol appearance to Hard Rock Cafe.

After her performance Pia spent a few minutes having pictures taken with her fans. I was able to get a photograph of Pia up close and it was good to see her and have her here for this performance and cause.
