More than 10 years of fun and glittery names by Barbora Misakova

Probably every one of you knows Orpheus. He was one of the biggest poets and musicians from Greek Antiquity. He can sing and play on his lyre so beautifully that every man or animal was charmed by it. That's why there is no surprise his name is still connected with any kind of musical events around the world. One of them is also Krewe of Orpheus.Krewe of Orpheus is New Orleans' parade which was founded in 1993 by Harry Connick, Jr. and Sr. and Sonny Borey. The main feature of this celebration consists of its music-basement it means this parade is a kind of celebration where the biggest number of celebrities appeared. I have to admit I have never heard about the Krewe of Orpheus and this is the first time I have read about it, but from what I know about it now, it looks like good show and funny event which is worth to take part. This year will be the stars of this celebration Sandy Denton and Cheryl James better known as Salt N' Pepa from the 1980s rap due. They are helping a family with rebuilding their house destroyed by Hurricane Katrina and making a document about it for VH1 TV Channel. Moreover they will be one of the superstars of this year's parade. As the web site of the Krewe of Orpheus says this parade is "synonymous with diversity" and this diversity is shown on the celebrities' selection for this year. After many past annual sets with celebrities such as Whoopi Goldberg, Glenn Close, Sandra Bullock, Stevie Wonder, Steven Seagal, James Brown, David Copperfield or Josh Harnett new faces come this year. If you are a fan of ABC competition "Dancing with the Stars" you will be probably glad to hear that its champion Helio Castoneves will be one of the guests on Krewe of Orpheus. Sean Payto, 2006 NFL Coach of the Year will be there too. And Member of N'SYNC Lance Bass will come to be Orpheus nobility. So if you belong among the fans of this parade do not hesitate and join all these glittery names.
