Arizona Cardinals quarterback Matt Leinart hosted The Hills star Brody Jenner, pop star Nick Lachey and baseball player Reggie Sanders among hundreds of others at his Welcome to Arizona party Wednesday night at Olive & Ivy at the Scottsdale Waterfront.

Leinart, wearing a dark suit but no tie, mingled during the live and silent auctions where current and past pro footballers and Valley socialites bid on a $25,000 Haimov watch, tickets to the Super Bowl and a trip to Idaho's Fairmont Tamarack, among other items to benefit the Matt Leinart Foundation's work with children.

"This is such a great cause," said Johnjay, of 104.7 KISS FM's Johnjay and Rich Show. "What the Matt Leinart Foundation does for children is unbelievable. He's got the biggest heart when it comes to kids."
