Inside the Hottest After-Parties of Oscar Night

"I come to this event every year and I think what is great is what Elton and David do for the community and we get to honor the Oscars. We get to be around great people and have fun, everything they do is admirable," Michele told us at the Elton John AIDS Foundation's Academy Awards viewing party.

“I started this 26 years ago,” John said moments before the beginning of his annual Elton John AIDS Foundation Academy Awards viewing party. As the singer sat backstage, with his husband David Furnish by his side, he spoke of his long-term goals for the affair noting, “We hope to have an end of aids in 2030, by which time I’ll be 83. We will never stop having this party.”

"I’ve been here many many years. I’m a devotee to Elton [John] and David [Furnish] and Scott Campbell who runs the organization. When you see a night like tonight we are reminded that this is about humanity and story telling and what artists do to change a culture," Light told us at the Elton John AIDS Foundation's Academy Awards viewing party.

“You come here and it feels like a Hollywood prom. Everyone’s in a good mood because the food is great and music is hot, but at the end of the day, it makes a difference for many people in the world. So I am in awe of what Elton and David have done," Young told us at the Elton John AIDS Foundation's Academy Awards viewing party.
