The custom-made Christian Louboutin shoes worn by Alicia Keys and Beyoncé in the video for their duet 'Put It In A Love Song' were sold for £15,000. Louboutin, who was present last night, offered to make a pair exclusively for the successful bidder.
Before the boutique performance, Keys was joined by actress Thandie Newton, who hosted an auction in aid of the AIDS charity.
At the climax of the fundraiser, Keys performed an intimate set. After opening with 'No-One,' she welcomed Tom Meighan and Serge Pizzorno on stage to perform with her house band. The pair played Kasabian's song 'Underdog' as Keys danced at the back of the stage before joining them to duet with Meighan on 'Where Did All The Love Go?'
