TITLE: “Dream Phone Call From Chayanne Will Go To Lucky Bidder”

When the auction is over and the bids are all in, some very lucky fan will be getting a phone call most fans only dream about. It will come from one of the brightest stars in the entertainment universe…Latin heart throb Chayanne.

Chayanne will donate the “fan call” to a benefit Internet auction that he really cares about, the Chayanne Fans For Nancy charity auction on eBay. The call will go to the highest bidder during the auction to benefit Nancy Ramos Esquivel which now through Sunday, March 21st (extended to this date due to overwhelming response). She is a 10 month old baby girl who desperately needs a liver transplant at Jackson Memorial Hospital in Miami, FL. Included in the auction will also be more than 200 Chayanne collectible items sent in by his fans everywhere and even the star’s own management company.

The exciting auction is being sponsored and coordinated by a committee, Chayanne Fans For Nancy, made up from three major fan clubs who support the career of the Puerto Rican entertainer on the Internet, Cafe Chayanne, Chayfans.org and La Isla Chayanne.

Chayanne discovered the Mexican girl when his own child, three year old Lorenzo, was hospitalized briefly with the flu. This caring, sympathetic superstar was so moved by her condition and the fact that her mother is very poor and cannot afford the whopping big $ 200,000 surgery bill, that he publicly asked his millions of fans around the world to help. As a result, the auction was born to kick off a fund raising campaign.

In addition to his recent appearances on two episodes of Fox’s TV hit Ally McBeal, and his 1998 US film debut in Dance With Me starring opposite Vanessa L. Williams, Chayanne’s colorful career spans some 21 years. He has sold over 5 million albums worldwide, and earned at least 20 platinum records and more than 50 gold. This past year, he won the Ritmo Latino Artist Of The Year Award and also for Best Video for his song Atado A Tu Amor. He was just recently nominated for the 2001 Billboard Latin Music Awards Hot Latin Tracks, for The Best Pop Album – “Simplemente” (his latest), and for Pop Track Of The Year. In addition, he has been nominated for Best Latin Artist in the prestigious Premios Gardel Awards in Argentina to be announced on April 18th.

Among the many items to be auctioned off will be autographed tour books, photographs, rare magazines, articles and clippings, concert T-shirts, albums, videos (including Linda Sara, the first film he made), and possibly a nice contribution from the Miami Marlin’s baseball team.
