President Obama will be back in New York Tuesday for a flurry of fund-raising activities for the Democratic National Committee.
He will attend an event at the home of Bill White, the former CEO of the Intrepid, and his husband, Bryan Eure, who were married three years ago by David Boies when gay marriage was legalized in New York.
Aretha Franklin sang at their wedding, and we’re told the legendary singer — who is about to release a new album “Aretha Franklin Sings the Great Diva Classics” — will be among the guests meeting the president on Tuesday.
Others expected at the event, catered by Cipriani, include Harvey Weinstein and Mark Wahlberg.
Tickets for the event cost $25,000 with proceeds going to the Democratic National Committee.
Obama is also expected to drop by another fund-raising event at hot new Tribeca Restaurant White Street, hosted by prominent Democratic donors Victor and Sarah Kovner and Betsy and Ed Zimmerman.
