27-time Grammy winner Quincy Jones will toast to another year with a little help from his famous friends. He and Oscar Award-winning actor Michael Caine will be honored at the Keep Memory Alive’s Power of Love Gala, airing live on Mark Cuban‘s AXS TV.
Jones, who turns 80 on Thursday (March 14), will once again team up with The Cider House Rules star to celebrate their shared birthdays with a A-list event. According to The Hollywood Reporter, appearances will include Bono, Carlos Santana, Chaka Khan, Chris Tucker, Herbie Hancock, Jennifer Hudson, Jordin Sparks, Scarlett Johansson, Terrence Howard, Patti Austin, Snoop Dogg, Stevie Wonder, Whoopi Goldberg, will.i.am and Barbra Streisand.
“There are no two greater living icons with a larger influence on the worlds of music and pop culture than Quincy Jones and Sir Michael Caine,” said Cuban, chairman and founder of AXS TV. “Joining the celebration of their 80th birthdays with the Power of Love Gala as the broadcast partner underscores AXS TV’s commitment to being the foremost live destination on television for fans of music and pop-culture events.”
The event, which will broadcast April 13 from MGM Grand Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, will benefit Keep Memory Alive in support of the Cleveland Clinic Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health.
