DIONNE WARWICK

The 65-year-old singer, who received a standing ovation when she entered the auditorium, watched with tears of joy as the Black Ensemble Theater performed her hits, including WALK ON BY, DO YOU KNOW THE WAY TO SAN JOSE and I SAY A LITTLE PRAYER.

And after the final bows, Warwick walked onstage to speak to the stars.

She said, "My babies, you were magnificent. Truly magnificent. I cannot thank you enough for caring that much about me."
