Warwick's Crushed Ball Feeds The Needy

Posted Jan 27th 2009 11:53AM by TMZ Staff

There's one positive coming from Dionne Warwick's canceled-at-the-last-minute American Music Inaugural Ball -- all the unused food is now being served at food shelters across D.C.

Dion Warwick
The D.C. Central Kitchen -- which has been around for nearly 20 years -- was given 2,500 pounds of ribs, pork loin, chicken parmesan, baked goods and fruit by the Marriott Wardman Park -- where Dionne's ball was set to go down.

The Kitchen distributed the food to nearly 100 shelters and social-service agencies.

We're told the one leftover the Marriott didn't donate to the Kitchen was ... the champagne.
