Los Angeles, CA (The Hollywood Times) 9/24/21 – Last week,  La Boheme, the iconic West Hollywood Restaurant on Santa Monica Boulevard, opened its doors to Bergman’s Luxury Lounge & Luncheon — in celebration of the 73rdAnnual  Emmy® Awards. Over 100 of Hollywood’s finest turned out to celebrate and honor the television industry’s Emmy® Nominated actors, former Emmy® winners, presenters, stylists, and industry VIPS.

“Sometimes, the beauty of the world, is more than I can bear,” acknowledged Bergman. “So, when it gets to be too much, it’s time to do something about it. That’s when I decided to move forward with our 11th Annual Luxury Lounge & Luncheon. We scouted out an outdoor venue for a comfort level and then approached our exclusive sponsors to participate. It was surprising to learn how many vendors were ready to ‘get out and be seen.’  It was like old times. The big smiles and hugs said it all!”

This highly anticipated invitation-only event, hosted by Precious Vodka and presented by The Abingdon Co., showcased an incredible array of fashion for him and her, including couture gowns, bespoke tuxedos & suits, men & women’s casual wear, fancy footwear, fabulous timepieces, vegan leather bags, the finest in beauty, skin and hair care, outrageous CBD products, stunning jewelry collections, gorgeous accessories, health foods, scented candles, La Boheme signature cuisine, Bulgarian vodka,  organic Tequila, delectable gourmet sweets and much more.

The special attraction? Direct from Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas, was Minneapolis-based ‘80’s Pop Group — “The Jets”  — who made their debut with VAI — their own brand of CBD Wellness Water!

In the spirit of giving back, guests & sponsors made monetary donations and/or donated unwrapped gifts for young adults (ages 13-18) for a Pre-Holiday Gift Drive benefiting ‘Wednesday’s Child’ — a weekly segment airing on KTTV FOX 11 News, Los Angeles, with Anchor Christine Devine.  ‘Wednesday’s Child’ highlights ‘harder to place’ young adults in the LA County foster care system who are in need of adoptive families. “In Los Angeles County, alone, there are over 30,000 children receiving child welfare services,” says social worker, Dr. William Wong.  Bergman always invites at least 2 foster youth to join in on the festivities and experience what it feels like to be treated like a VIP.  http://www.foxla.com/wednesdays-child
