Former Grey’s Anatomy actress Kate Walsh gets to sniffin’ some type of plant on a walk through her neighborhood with a friend in Los Angeles on Saturday.
The 40-year-old actress recently was involved in a celebrity footwear auction with the charity “Clothes Off Our Back”. Kate designed a pair of RODO shoes and the olive pumps were auctioned off to benefit children’s charities. Kate’s auction just ended at $480. Shoes designed by Kate Winslet went for the highest price of $9,500! Check it.
Kate Walsh wows in Hervé Leroux at The American Red Cross of Santa Monica’s “Red Tie Affair” fundraiser gala held at Fairmont Miramar Hotel in Santa Monica on Saturday.
The 40-year-old Private Practice star wore an element of red in her attire (a red cross), which signifies her support for the American Red Cross and for the thousands of individuals helped by the local Red Cross every day.
Gourmet dinners were designed by celebrity chef Nick Stellino. The gala honored the humanitarian spirit of those who have shown courage, unselfish character, and have saved lives.
Kate Walsh promotes her medical drama, Private Practice, after arriving at the Quay Grand Hotel in Sydney, Australia on Wednesday. She’s also reportedly promoting her new movie One Way to Valhalla.
It was recently announced that Kate won’t be performing in “Good Medicine,” a musical benefit at UCLA’s Royce Hall on Friday to benefit crew members who were affected by the strike. Other cast members from Grey’s Anatomy and Private Practice will be there to perform, though! Here’s Kate’s personal (and funny) apology:
“I’m sorry. I’m really sorry and I am sorry I have to be so sorry but still, I do, because I am writing to let you know that despite my initial commitments, I won’t be able to participate in ‘Good Medicine.’ I wanted to come, I really, really did — but I can’t. I have a prior commitment that I tried to get out of and couldn’t. I am so sorry. And so so so bummed. I am so bummed not only that we can’t be there for you and our crew, but because I hate to miss what promises to be an unbelievably great evening. Audra McDonald, Sara Ramirez and Loretta Devine (known to you as the chief’s wife, Adele. She played Effie in the very first Broadway Production of Dreamgirls) are singing! Not to mention T.R. Knight, Chandra Wilson, Amy Brenneman and Paul Adelstein, Tim Daly and Chris Lowell… they’re all going to sing! And so are Chief Webber and his real-life wife Gina, also a Broadway veteran. Aside from all the music, there will be appearances by Katherine Heigl, Brooke Smith, Sandra Oh, Justin Chambers, Chyler Leigh, Eric Dane and Taye Diggs. Basically everyone’s gonna be there. Except me. I cannot believe I have to miss this. Crap. Our crews are the people who make all of it possible. I am so excited this evening is happening to raise money for them and so so sad I won’t be there. I hope you forgive us and I hope you have a wonderful time.
With Love and Regret,
Kate Walsh”
