The 22nd Annual GYPSY OF THE YEAR Competition, presented by Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS, opened with an unforgettable tribute to three-time Tony Award-winner Carol Channing. The stage and screen icon, backed by an all-male chorus line, delighted the sold out audience with renditions of "Diamonds are a Girl's Best Friend" from her first Broadway smash, 1949's Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, and the rousing title song from Hello, Dolly! — the show which made her a legend in 1964.

  • She's BRILLIANT....however the sound man should have bumped up her mic just a bit more. Lower register requires a little more amplification.

  • The dancing brought tears to my eyes, so so beatuful she is!

  • A little weaker but still the light in her eyes!

  • gosh all i can do is watch this and cry because im thinking, im watching a living legend!
