Shawn "Jay-Z" Carter & The Shawn Carter Foundation Hosted an Evening of "Making The Ordinary Extraordinary"
Where: Pier 54
Who was there: Guests included Jay-Z, Gloria Carter, Alex Rodriguez, Danielle Staub, CC Sabathia, Charlamaine, Lee Keyonus, Kevin Lyles, Questlove, Paula Zahn, Michael Eric Dyson, Susan Taylor, and Jefra Burns.
Other details: MTV News caught up with Mr. Carter at the event, where he said the evening was about having fun while raising money for a good cause. Jay said two of the worst things in life are a waste of talent and a person who applies him- or herself but is unable to advance due to financial hardship. He hoped this foundation would help ease such burdens and assist people in recognizing their potential.
