Global Ambassador and Artistic Director Vitalie Taittinger officiated the opening of the star-studded show, which celebrated a milestone 25th anniversary this year with a silver carpet in lieu of the traditional red. Taittinger was joined by actor Jon Huertas, known for his role on ABC’s award-winning show This is Us at the top of the carpet for a toast of Champagne Taittinger’s acclaimed Brut La Française NV to kick off the show.

The longstanding initiative presented by the family-owned Champagne House, took place live on the (this year only) silver carpet, to raise additional funds for the Foundation’s critical Emergency Assistance program—that supports actors and their families in times of urgent need.

For every signature, Champagne Taittinger donated funds to the Foundation’s Emergency Assistance program. The unique celebrity-signed bottle, along with the bottle signed by the entire Taittinger staff, will be made available as items in the online SAG Awards Ceremony Auction, with those proceeds also benefiting the Foundation’s Emergency Assistance program.
