The Obama fundraising folks must have figured out just how much Washingtonians love a good brunch. We hear that this Sunday, LGBT Americans for Obama is hosting a mimosa reception and brunch with Vogue contributing editor Andre Leon Talley, "Modern Family's" Jesse Tyler Ferguson and, to give it a political kick, Jill Biden. The trio will be holding court at the Penthouse Pool Club atop Vida Fitness' U Street location.

While young professionals can snag a ticket for $125, regular tickets to the fundraiser cost between $500 and $10,000. Biden is no stranger to the Vogue crowd having been profiled by the fashion magazine for its November 2008 issue. Unique about the Biden story was that it was teased on Vogue's cover as "All the Vice President's Women," a proclamation made before the last election. Brunch begins at 11 a.m.
