Beverly Hills – On Saturday night, Moët & Chandon and Zoe Saldana toasted Roger Federer’s 1,000th career win with an exclusive Champagne party and a Moët & Chandon “Tiny Tennis” tournament at the Four Season’s Wetherly Gardens in Beverly Hills. Guests sipped on Moët & Chandon Impérial and Impérial Ice under twinkling lights while celebrity comedian Heather McDonald served as emcee and umpire for the “Tiny Tennis” matches. Federer – international tennis champion and Moët & Chandon Global Brand Ambassador – wowed the crowd with his prowess on the mini court in an exhibition match with doubles partner Zoe Saldana. This exclusive Moët & Chandon soiree kicked off the 2015 BNP Paribas Open, to be held March 9 – 22, 2015 at the Indian Wells Tennis Garden. Moët & Chandon is the Official Champagne of the BNP Paribas Open for the first time this year and through this partnership, Moët & Chandon will join fans and spectators in raising a toast in celebration of the world’s largest ATP World Tour and WTA combined two-week.
Additional celebrity attendees included Kate Walsh (actress), Camilla Belle (actress), Jessica Lowndes (actress), Jason Collins (NBA Legend), Grant Chen (musician), Pom Klementiff (actress/model), Alexis Menesis (actress) and more. Actress Camilla Belle and her boyfriend were inseparable all night, holding hands, whispering and canoodling over glasses of Moet. Zoe Saldana, dressed fittingly in head to toe “tennis whites” arrived with her husband in tow. It was one of the couple’s first public appearances since the birth of their twins. Saldana, who just presented at the Oscars, will star in Avatar 2, 3 & 4. It was just announced on Thursday that the second film will be released in 2017.
