American Idol’s Ruben Studdard wowed the crowd at Michael Milken’s Prostate Cancer Foundation’s Annual Gala a few weeks back.
The Grammy nominated super-talented winner of season two was introduced by power-producer David Foster who said, “Ruben Studdard has a talent, he can write a song on the spot. So let’s write one for tonight’s event.”
The crowd named the song, ”A Cure Is On the Way” and Studdard brilliantly improvised the words as he sang.
Special performances from Natalie Cole and David Foster were part of the event with 100 percent of the funds raised throughout the evening going towards groundbreaking discoveries in cancer research.
The show ended with a group rendition of Hey Jude, then Michael Milken thanked David Foster and asked everyone to go to the other stage where guests danced the night away to Super Diamond, a Neil Diamond cover band.
