The Barcelona charity gala full of VIPs that Madrid envy, by Joan Vehils

For the good of humanity, Dr. Bonaventura Clotet should never retire. And if one day she does, she would have to dedicate herself to organizing charity galas. It is true that when doing it with Laura Durán at his side everything is easier, because the Fundación Lucha contra las Infecciones has devoted patrons and that Barcelona is short of parties, but Clotet’s power to convene is unbeatable.

And if Clotet attracts them, Good source puts everyone on alert, and the Mag Lari hypnotizes them. Only he is capable of pere aragones and Xavi Hernandez participate in a magic trick together in front of more than 750 people. The president and his wife, Janina JuliThey are a couple of those that one would go to dinner with them. Simple and fun, they talked at length with the president of Seat, Wayne Griffiths. Another friendly and close couple and also present is that of Arthur More and Helena Rakosnik. Not everyone will agree with this, but we should respect people more and not despise them just because of their political ideals. And if not, ask Ada Colau. By the way, the mayoress, who this year preferred to be absent from the gala, leads the polls…

TO Xavi and his wife, the elegant Nuria CunilleraThey barely let them have dinner. Photos, questions, hugs… It was a constant parade of personalities towards the table that the Barça coach shared with the actor Marc Clotet and his partner, the fashionable actress Natalia Sanchez. She, as always, was one of the prettiest. oh! Of course, yes, she speaks perfect Catalan. No Madrid accent. Better even than some who still wear the yellow ribbon.

The musician Joan Dausa He came with his wife Eli Dalmau, and he explained to me how well the sale of tickets for the Sant Jordi concert is going. She will ask for it. It’s good people. Like his tablemates and some of the many Cadaquesenses present there. From Rafel Martin Faixó and his wife, Marine Girardwhich run Can Rafa, the best restaurant in Cadaqués, and which provided the excellent Marti Faixó wines, to the award-winning Manel Vehíwho prepared the magnificent cocktails at Boia Nit.

Well that, that Clotet has friends everywhere. Only then is it understood that Juan Manuel Serrat decided at the last minute to go on stage to sing with Anthony Orozco. That was the moment of the night. You had to see the faces of emotion or how Martina Klein hugged his dear Alex Corretja. By the way, listening to Corretja commenting on tennis matches is a luxury for the spectator, but Àlex tells me that he will be at Roland Garros for 18 days, that he enters the club at nine in the morning and that he does not leave until eleven o’clock the night. Well yes, he works hard, but he is the best. They were also moved by Serrat the glamorous Gemma Mengual and the journalist Carmen Barcelo, with her Rosa Clarà dress. They and Corretja shared a table with the CEO of Prensa Ibérica, Aitor Moll, and the founder of Cambyo, I use Arregui, and with the CEO, Sergi Guillot, and the president of Holaluz, Charlotte Pi.

Another of the stellar moments of the night was the surprise appearance of the singer vicco and his song nocturna. Neither she nor Orozco charged a euro for acting.
