Stars continue to come out in droves for Barack Obama. The Democratic presidential nominee was feted Thursday night at a private home in Bel Air with such guests as Jamie Foxx, Isaiah Washington, Melanie Brown and Nia Long in attendance.

VIP donors paid $2,300 each to attend the Black and White Gala, which featured a performance by a seven-member gospel choir and a menu that included croissants, crudités, olives and eggplant.

Actress Fran Drescher, who worked with Obama on the Gynecologic Cancer Education and Awareness Act, served as mistress of ceremonies for the function. She was a Hillary Clinton supporter during the primaries, but says she is now fully behind Obama.

"He stands for everything that I believe in," she told the Associated Press. "I think he's inspirational, and that's what this country needs right now."

Foxx, accompanied by his teenage daughter, greeted congressmen and other guests at a table in the corner. "Dancing With the Stars" runner-up Melanie "Scary Spice" Brown, in a bejeweled black gown, chatted with actress Nia Long, who has been following Obama's campaign for the past year.

"This is the first election where I've actually paid attention to every single thing, and I think it's because I'm a mom now," Long said. "I just think Barack is amazing... I admire him. I admire Michelle."

Comedian Kathy Griffin, actress Lucy Liu and actor/filmmaker Mario Van Peebles also attended the private party, which raised more than $200,000 for the Obama campaign, said Theresa DeBell, who hosted the event with her husband, Robert Siegel.
