Hamilton Creator & Hillary Clinton Duet at Epic NYC Karaoke Fundraiser
Three Superstars Are Hosting a Karaoke Party in NYC—and You Could Be There!
What’s the Big Deal?
Imagine walking into a karaoke bar and seeing Lin-Manuel Miranda (the genius behind Hamilton), Paul Rudd (Ant-Man himself), and Hillary Clinton (former Secretary of State and First Lady) all hanging out, singing, and raising money for a good cause.
That’s exactly what’s happening on October 19 in New York City!
Why Are They Doing This?
It’s not just for fun (though it will be). The event is a fundraiser—a party where the money raised goes to help others.
The proceeds will support two organizations:
- Latino Victory Project – Works to get more Latino leaders elected and encourage Latino voters to participate.
- Onward Together – Founded by Hillary Clinton, this group supports grassroots organizations that fight for voting rights, fairness, and civic engagement.
Important Point: Every dollar donated goes directly to these two groups. The stars are volunteering their time!
Can Regular People Go?
Yes! There’s a sweepstakes (a fancy word for a random drawing) where one lucky winner + a guest will get a VIP experience that includes:
- Two tickets to the private karaoke event
- A meet-and-greet with Lin-Manuel Miranda and Hillary Clinton
- Round-trip airfare to NYC
- Hotel accommodations
Deadline to enter: October 2 at 11:59 PM ET

Final Thought
New York has tons of karaoke bars—but how many let you sing “My Heart Will Go On” next to Hamilton’s creator, Ant-Man, and a former Secretary of State?
Enter the sweepstakes, clear your calendar for October 19, and warm up those vocal cords. You never know—you might just get the duet of a lifetime.
Good luck—and break a leg (not literally)!
