In the same auction you can have Kristin Chenoweth record a personalized answering machine message! That one isn't super pricey either!

Wow, I am so tempted to bid on some of those! Would love lunch with Anthony, but that is a little out of my price range.

The thing with Kristin on your answering machine made me laugh. That's cute!

Aww, no one has bid on the lunch with Anthony yet. Think if no one bids they will lower the minimum?

What would it have to be for you to open bidding?

How I wish I had the kind of money to bid on these things. Congrats to whoever does win them, there were many great packages, events, and items in that auction!

Why is there a shipping fee? What, are they going to wrap Anthony up and ship him to you in a box?

Yeah, I was wondering why there was a shipping fee on many of the things as well. They are no small shipping fees either! They ranged from $25 to $75.

The fee is for background checks... $25 each for you and the extra guest! I would hate to sign Anthony up with a couple crazies!!!! That goes for the other items as well... anytime someone wins the chance to get up close and personal with celebrities, it is best to take a precaution and do the checks.

Lol, that's funny!

Background checks are a very good idea.

Olivetone, I take it you are involved in this auction? There are some amazing packages! And in ref. to your question I don't know what I would pay for lunch with Anthony. I did PM you back and again, I'm not saying lunch with Anthony isn't well worth it, I was just curious since no one had bid yet.

Yes, I am involved... I secured a lot of these lots along with the executive director and I want to get the word out to as many people as possible that the opportunities are there! I know they are a lot of money, but the work done by Broadway Cares/ Equity Fights AIDS is some of the most critical initiatives around in the ongoing battle with HIV.

Not to go completely O/T but the Wedding Singer package already has a bid of $800...if only some of this money would get spent on the show it might not be doing so badly.

Kristin Chenoweth recording your answering machine message? Are you kidding me?

Lol, I thought the Kristin thing was kind of cute! Except of course that no one outside the broadway community would know who was on your machine.

Oh, if I had money! And Anthony offered to wait with my until my ride came at a reading I went to! Too bad I was honest, and said I would be ok! Good luck, and tell whoever wins to give a report back here!

They had BC/EFA auctions at Spamalot for Hank Azaria to do your voicemail in one of his Simpsons' voices. Of course, those are more recognizable than Kristin's, unless you're a 14 year old girl.
