Fashion’s Night Out has confirmed that Idina will be performing at Michael Kors’ Madison Avenue boutique on Friday, September 10, as part of New York’s city-wide festivities. The performance is free and open to the public, and there are some rumors that she may have a special guest with her. We’ll see! IdinaMenzel.com has announced that her performance will take place at 9:00 pm local time.

Last week, Idina & Taye attended the Sunset Strip Music Festival, including a performance by the Smashing Pumpkins. Some paparazzi photographs from the night have surfaced. Click below to view them in HQ.

We’ve also added new photos from the family outing at LA’s Farmers’ Market, so go check them out as well.

It’s been reported on Refinery29 New York that Idina will be participating in this year’s “Fashion’s Night Out,” the biggest public fashion show in New York City and the largest shopping event of the year. She will be joining Bravo’s Project Runway host Michael Kors at his Madison Avenue boutique for a few duets. Apparently, Mr. Kors is a singer! Who knew?

Fashion’s Night Out is September 10th. Kors’ event has not yet announced a time. Check back for more details soon!

Yesterday, Idina was the dinner entertainment at a high-dollar glitzy fundraiser for the Democratic Party held in a private residence in Los Angeles. President Obama was in attendance, as was Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi and a number of other Washington and Hollywood heavy-hitters. This marks the second time Idina has been invited to perform for President Obama, and the fourth time she has performed for the incumbent President (Clinton during RENT, Bush at the Kennedy Center Honors, Obama at the White House, and this event). Not too shabby!

You can read about this event in the LA Times.

p.s. I hadn’t posted about this here yet since I had hoped we’d get some photos, but none have surfaced. :( Darn private events.

The Sesame Workshop put out a press release today announcing the 41st season of children’s television classic Sesame Street. They have confirmed that Idina and Taye will be guest stars on an upcoming episode and will be in the “Word of the Day” segment, presenting the word “allergic.” A still from the episode has also been revealed, though the air date for their episode has not yet been confirmed (we’ll tweet it when we know). Cute!

In case you missed E!’s report on this back in March, you can watch a quick clip from the Sesame set below.
