A private concert from Madonna raised 350,000 euros for Aids charity amfAR at an auction in Cannes last night (May 22nd).

The pop star will sing two songs backstage during her upcoming Sticky & Sweet world tour to the winning bidder and a friend.

Other lots available at the annual Cinema Against AIDS gala included a restored 1976 Porsche 911, which raised 500,000 euros.

Hollywood actress Sharon Stone hosted the event, which drew high profile names from the big screen and business.

Madonna, who was in Cannes to premiere her aids documentary, told the crowd not to humiliate when she introduced her lot.

"People have offered me millions to play at their Bar Mitzvahs," the singer said.
