“You’re holding him in a way that I am not excited about! You’re holding his pecs and his six-pack — and it’s so glorious!” Perry exclaimed in a dramatic, mock-jealous tone, describing the excursion up for bidding. “You get to hold on to Orlando for about 45 minutes. … And then, you get to stare into his brown eyes!”

Eventually a fan named Laura placed a bid for $20,000, to which Perry shouted, “Yay! I don’t know who you are, but stan for my man!” But just a moment later, Perry said, “Laura, I’m sorry — I’m buying it for $50,000.” As Perry wordlessly exited the stage, the auctioneer declared, “Sold — to the lady in the red leather skirt!” And the emcee marveled, “That was a boss move.”

Perry had an altruistic motive: Earlier in the day, before she performed a short set of three of her most inspirational songs (“Roar,” “By the Grace of God” and “Firework”), she said, “I’m really here because of this guy,” pointing to her keyboardist, Ty Bailie. “This guy is my friend, and we’ve been on tour for the past couple of years, and he lost his house in the fires. But he’s got the greatest attitude and perspective in life and he’s the coolest guy, and I’m really just here for him — and for everyone else that has been affected by this horribleness. But, we have an opportunity to grow together now. I love you so much.”

Other highlights of the star-studded afternoon included Natasha Bedingfield’s fiery cover of the Prince power ballad “Purple Rain”; Robin Thicke (who, along with Katy Perry, was the first to sign on for the event) grooving on Michael Jackson’s “Rock with You” and Al Green’s “Let’s Stay Together”; Alanis Morissette reuniting with her “You Oughta Know” drummer, Taylor Hawkins of the Foo Fighters (and changing the line in “Ironic” to “It’s meeting the man of my dreams and then meeting his beautiful … husband”); Brandi Carlile, described by event organizer Linda Perry as her “good luck charm,” evoking the holiday spirit with a cover of Joni Mitchell’s “River”; and Gwen Stefani recruiting the Strokes’ Nick Valensi to play guitar on No Doubt’s “Underneath It All” and “Don’t Speak.”

Among the other performers and presenters were Joe Walsh, Rick Springfield, Macy Gray, Best Coast, Rita Ora, Rita Wilson, Dorothy, Pete Molinari, Angel Haze, Demi Moore, Dick Van Dyke, Nikki Reed, and Brandon Boyd, Mike Einziger, and Ben Kenney of Incubus.

Proceeds from One Love Malibu (which was organized in four days by Linda Perry and Kerry Brown’s artist empowerment company, We Are Hear, with everyone volunteering their talent and time) will go to the Malibu Foundation, a nonprofit created to support the community’s effort to rebuild in areas of Southern California affected by the Woolsey Fire. According to We Are Hear’s press release, the funds raised will go to those most in need: the uninsured, people living paycheck-to-paycheck, and animal refuge and care. Further donations can be made here.

Safyre Terry, 8, suffered severe burns to 75 percent of her body after surviving an arson fire in May 2013. The fire destroyed her apartment building and according to the Today Show, Safryre’s father, David Terry, and her siblings Layah, 3, Michael, 2, and Donovan, 11, were all killed.

She suffered loss and tragedy this year, but Safrye is staying positive and continues to inspire followers by her smile and reflective attitude.

Before the holiday season, the 8-year-old shared a social media post that said all she wanted for Christmas was a tree full of greeting cards. The world listened, and Safrye received more than 500,000 cards and 10,000 care packages from caring individuals.

One very special package arrived before the holiday from Safrye’s favorite singer, Miss Perry.

The 31-year-old performer sent Safyre a handwritten Christmas card and a kitty-themed care package that included a hoodie with cat ears, a DVD of Katy’s Prismatic World Tour, an iPhone 6 case and a black kitty purse.

Meanwhile, Perry’s personalized note read, “Safyre, I heard about your Christmas wish and am so honored that you saved the top of the tree for me! I hope you have a wonderful Christmas and a great New Year. I’ll be thinking of you on Christmas Day. Special girl.”

Fashion photographer, Evan Lauber, captured the moment when Safyre opened her gift from Perry. He told E! News, “Katy is her ultimate favorite. When she opened up the Katy Perry present, she was captivated by every item. She just loves the song ‘Roar’ so much.”

He told the press that Safyre wanted to learn to sing and play “Roar” on the piano with the help of Angel Cascio, one of Michael Jackson’s former friends.

“She’s only eight years old and completely positive,” said Lauber. “She’s very into charity and wants to help other burn victims.”

In addition to Safyre’s gift from Perry, she also received holiday packages from Beyonce and President Barack Obama.
