Mikalah Gordon, who you might remember from the fourth season of American Idol, was spotted on the red carpet at the 2009 Braylon Edwards Foundation Arts & Stars Gala in Detroit, Michigan. It looks like it was quite an event but it also benefited a worthy cause – a portion of the evening’s proceeds went to the Music Hall, The Detroit School of Arts (DSA) and the YMCA of Metropolitan Detroit.
I lived in a suburb of Detroit for a couple years and I know that this is a city that needs a lot of support from the more affluent people in the community. I’m glad that NFL star Braylon Edwards found a way to give back (his father, Stan Edwards, actually played for the University of Michigan and the Detroit Lions).
