Pete Attends the Movado - Macy Event
- petepage
'Los Angeles, September 29 – Pete Sampras was at the 23rd Macy’s Passport AIDS fundraiser where Sharon Stone was the auctioneer.
Pete Sampras got caught up in the auction excitement, and impulsively threw in a private tennis lesson followed by lunch at his house. When pushy auctioneer Stone got the bidding up to $17,500, she brought the champ up onstage, took him aside and asked if he’d throw in a second identical package. Sampras turned to us and muttered, “She’s going to ask for my first-born next”. Stone sold lesson number two for another $17,500.
The evening included several other fashion shows, and Wilmer Valderrama and Venus Williams were on hand. Elizabeth Taylor was unable to attend.'
