London's Hyde Park turned into a party scene this afternoon as Nelson Mandela kept on celebrating his ninetieth birthday with a star-studded concert. Will and Jada were up and at 'em after last night's Elton John party to get on stage, while Geri Halliwell and Prince William's girlfriend, Kate Middleton, surveyed the scene. Amy Winehouse, who was looking unusually tan, managed to take the stage despite her recent health problems. A crowd of 46,664, a number chosen as that was Nelson's prison number during his 27-year incarceration in South Africa, turned out to mark the occasion. Between this big show and dinner with his friends on Wednesday evening, hopefully Mr. Mandela had a perfect and memorable birthday.

    Something doesn't look right with Amy Winehouse. I mean more so than usual. Did she get a spray on tan and her teeth whitened?

    I think that its great that so many people were there to celebrate the occasion and its node to see hat he's got quite the following. You have no choice but to wish him the happiest of birthdays.

    I agree with you Tashspice. Getting an invite from nelson mandela is kind of a big deal.

    I do NOT agree that half of those there deserved to be in such esteemed company! Jada looked quite the little wifey slut. Who let Amy loose? I mean, it smiled!!! Thank God, no Oprah in sight. Leona Lewis got to sit next to Mandela? What IS this world coming to? I whole-heartedly like that Annie Lennox was there in such fabulous form and if hunky Will did any of that "beat boxin',"
    then I am officially embarrassed.

    I thought I read somewhere that Mandela is a fan of Amy Winehouse, which is how she got invited.

    Wish she would clean up her act because she is truly talented. This is a pretty big effort in appearances on her part.

    Amy looks very odd when tan, but everyone else looks beautiful, especially Kate M.

    commenting on amy winehouse: wow. she acts like she doesn't care what people think about her but that is a load of cr*p. why would she beehive her hair, spray herself tangerine, and wear fake teeth if she didn't care?
