Jennifer Lopez isn’t dodging her philanthropic duties…

The 52-year-old Puerto Rican superstar will headline the Los Angeles Dodgers Foundation’s Blue Diamond Gala at Dodger Stadium, where she’ll perform an exclusive concert.

Jennifer LopezReferred to as “The Party For LA,” the event is presented by the Los Angeles Dodgers Ownership Group, a collective that includes Mark Walter, Magic Johnson and tennis great Billie Jean King.

Lopez will share the program with DJ D-Nice, who will spin a set during the pre-show dinner party.

In addition to the live performances, the event will play host to special guests like Dodgers players, alumni and coaches and other boldfaced name VIPs.

Proceeds from the Blue Diamond Gala benefit LADF and its community programs and initiatives aimed at improving education, health care, homelessness and social justice for Angelenos.

Since its inception, LADF has invested over $40 million into the Los Angeles community in the form of direct programs and grants to nonprofits.

“We are thrilled to announce the return of the sixth annual Blue Diamond Gala, the party for Los Angeles, celebrating and raising funds for the Los Angeles Dodgers Foundation and our positive impact on the Los Angeles community,” said Walter, Dodgers owner and LADF chairman of the board. “We are truly honored to have an artist of Jennifer Lopez’s caliber performing at this year’s gala.”

Added LADF CEO Nichol Whiteman: “The return of the gala is a celebration of heroes, our partners and those we serve, who experienced so many highs and lows the last two years. They are the reason we are bigger than baseball.”

Sure she’s known as a Hollywood sex symbol… But, Jessica Alba is also one athletic woman.

The 33-year-old half-Mexican American actress proved that on Sunday when she threw out the ceremonial first pitch at Dodger Stadium.

Even though she could have gotten closer to the home plate, Alba elected to take the mound when she threw out the first pitch at the Los Angeles Dodgers baseball game.

In a vine captured by the Major League Baseball team, the Sin City: A Dame to Kill For actress shows some serious athletic skills as she plays catch with one of the Dodgers’ players moments before her big moment.

 

Alba’s experience at the stadium comes after Jeff Bridges and Chrissy Teigen delivered impressive first pitches earlier this summer. And, Alba’s was much better than 50 Cent‘s sad attempt.
