Here is how INDEX reported about the action:
HUMANITARIAN campaign launched after premature death of Vjesnik’s journalist Ana Rukavina, already attracted many stars. On Wednesday evening, singers Maja Šuput and Lana Klingor joined in and sang in Jarun’s club Macao while promoting Croatian’s Band Aid song and video “I want Life”. Same of most famous Croatian designers offered fashion items for the auction. Host of the evening was Iva Jerković, while famous models like Fani Stipković, Aleksandra Grdić, Antea Kodžoman, Lorena Čavar and others presented fashion designs.
Although yesterday’s humanitarian campaign didn’t attract great number of people, the organizers can still be pleased because most of the auctioned items (caps, shawls and jewelry donated by Croatian designers like Tihomir Krznarić, Iva Tuđa, Hippy Garden, Ivica Skoko, Robert Sever, Ingrid Wintage, Igle, Amarie, Ivana Popović, Budoar and others) was sold after all.
The worst result in auction had a school bag made by Robert Sever with initial price of 2000 kunas. Noone was ready to pay so much for a bag with signature (not even for charity), but the champagne in ex-Miss Croatia’s hands, Aleksandra Grdić, was sold for four digit amount – thousand kunas. Besides Lana Klingor who sang for little number of gathered people a song from her first independent album, “Love, music, I”, Maja Šuput also performed. There are rumors that she ended a year and a half long relationship with concert organizer, Marko Perica. Usually always fidgety Maja was more reserved this time, but she didn’t try to deny whether the rumors about the breakup are true or not. Maja dedicated a song “I don’t have the one I love the most” to all unhappy women.
