Hardy, sharing a table with various politicians and other notables, laughed heartily. Next up was "Happy Feet" star Williams, the after-dinner performer who similarly teased Hardy during a comedic performance. Afterward, the star shared a quiet moment at the cigar bar with the man of honor while guests danced. It was the unexpected appearance by Aguilera, however, that truly became the talk of the evening. Appearing amid the lavish flower displays, beef and lobster dinners and announcements that the local airport was being renamed after Hardy, the Pittsburgh-area native serenaded the hard-partying octogenarian, much to the billionaire's delight. Over the last few years, celebrity appearances at lavish bat mitzvahs and other coming-of-age parties have become increasingly common, featuring such highly paid special guests as Aerosmith, Tom Petty and 50 Cent (see "Ja Rule, Ashanti Torah The Roof Off At Girl's Bat Mitzvah").
