Stop #3 at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles
On July 21, actress and recording artist, Mandy Moore, visited the kids of Children’s Hospital Los Angeles to check out their new digs and to screen her new animated musical, Tangled.
Children’s Hospital Los Angeles recently moved 191 inpatients into its new 317-bed, $636 million state-of-the-art hospital building. After months of planning, more than 1,200 doctors, nurses and staff safely moved patients to their new residence. From the toddlers to teens battling cancer and heart disease, Mandy got to meet, play (and SING!) with many of them.
After watching Tangled, the kids of Children’s Hospital Los Angeles got to ask Mandy questions about what it was like to play Rapunzel and shared their favorite moments from the movie with her.
We’ll never forget her special welcome, “One, two, three….HI RAPUNZEL!!”
