The Breast Cancer Research Foundation held its annual Hot Pink Party online Wednesday with appearances by Sir Elton John, Elizabeth Hurley and Karlie Kloss, raising $5.2 million.
Breast cancer survivor and “Hamilton” star Mandy Gonzalez — who played Angelica Schuyler — performed “Breathe,” from “In the Heights,” along with Lin-Manuel Miranda.
“It was always important to me to not let cancer define me or stop me. So, during chemo, I had the privilege to continue my job … eight shows a week,” she said. “And I would never have been able to get through that if it wasn’t for my community.”
