Is there anyone more worthy of celebration than Nelson Mandela? Bill Clinton doesn’t seem to think so. The former President hosted a star-studded auction and gala dinner in honor of the first Mandela Day and Mandela’s 91st birthday at Vanderbilt Hall in Grand Central. Graca Machel,  Mandela’s wife, attended the celebration, as did Alicia Keys, Russell Simmons, Josh Groban, Keisha Whitaker, Karolina Kurkova and Fern Mallis. Also in attendance was everybody’s favorite crush from the 1950s, Harry Belafonte, and Morgan Freeman, who, perhaps wisely, attended without his step Grand daughter/fiancee. The event culminated in a Christie’s auction, which raised funds for The Nelson Mandela Foundation.
