The New7Wonders of the World were announced tonight in a star-studded ceremony featuring a fanfare of musical performances and a parade of world dignitaries. All came together for one night to highlight the world’s cultural gems and shared heritage.
The Great Wall of China,
Petra,
Chichén Itzá ,
the Statue of Christ Redeemer,
the Colosseum,
Machu Picchu and
the Taj Mahal.
More than 100 million votes were cast worldwide.
Actresses Hilary Swank and Bipasha Basu and actor Ben Kingsley hosted the ceremonies, which transformed the Benfica Stadium in Lisbon, Portugal and contrasted the more than 2,000-year-old Ancient Wonders, presented to the audience from a giant book, with the New7Wonders candidate finalists framed by a giant laptop computer.
Bernard Weber, who launched the New7Wonders Foundation to unite the world by honoring our common heritage, announced the organization’s next project : The New7Wonders of Nature.
Among highlights of the evening were performances by Jennifer Lopez and Jose Carreras, as well as Dulce Pontes, Chaka Khan, Alessandro Safina and Joaquín Cortés. Special guests were Neil Armstrong, Bertrand Piccard, Frederico Mayor and Cristiano Ronaldo, Portugal’s homegrown football star. Source : The organization of new7wonders, July 7, 2007 - 07.07.07.
