Sophia Scorziello editor Friday evening at the Fairmont Century Plaza had it all — and all for a good cause. “Housewives of Beverly Hills” stars danced on stage with Flo Rida, an Aston Martin was auctioned off for $240,000 and Cinq à Sept held a fashion show, all for the 30th annual Race to Erase MS Gala, a fundraising event dedicated to the treatment and hopeful cure of multiple sclerosis.

Nancy Davis founded Race to Erase in 1993, a year after she was diagnosed with MS. “I was told 31 years ago I could never walk again and that life as I knew it was over,” Davis shared with Variety at the gala.

But over the last three decades, funds raised at the gala have helped lead to 25 medications used to treat MS, raising $56 million for MS research. “To be here tonight and have the whole Hollywood community behind us — they come every year — it’s so lovely,” Davis said.

Later in celebration, she popped champagne on stage with Flo Rida, which made for a joyous evening finale. Actor David Faustino was also in attendance.
