Obama Hopes to Calm Panicked Hollywood with Latest La-La-Land Fundraiser

Obama Hopes to Calm Panicked Hollywood with Latest La-La-Land Fundraiser

President Barack Obama will have to do some serious acting tonight.

Obama returns to Hollywood for yet another star-studded fundraiser, but this time he’ll have to sell his minions on the notion that his disastrous debate performance Wednesday in Denver was a one-time only affair.

President Barack Obama returns to Los Angeles Sunday for a star-bedecked celebrity concert and fundraising dinner. In the wake of his Denver debate troubles, however, the long scheduled visit has acquired another, equally urgent purpose–reassuring his Hollywood supporters that he’s fighting to win the race and he’s poised for a comeback in the next televised forum with former Gov. Mitt Romney….

There’s also no doubt that the president’s Hollywood supporters were deeply shaken by his lackluster performance in this week’s debate with Republican nominee Romney….

The cloud of anxious fallout from Denver has all but overshadowed what otherwise would be considered a particularly glittering and gala L.A. appearance for Obama. His Sunday evening will kick off with a concert at downtown L.A.’s Nokia Theater featuring Katy Perry, Stevie Wonder, Jennifer Hudson, Earth Wind and Fire, and Jon Bon Jovi. Presidential pal Clooney will make a special appearance to introduce Wonder. Afterward, Obama will head next door for a $25,000-per-plate dinner at Wolfgang Puck’s chic WP24.
