NEW YORK, Sept. 30 (UPI) -- The VH1 Save the Music Foundation says it plans to honor British actress Julie Andrews at its upcoming 2010 gala in New York.

"To have the opportunity to celebrate such an incredible talent and individual is a privilege and we are thrilled to have her take part in what will be an unforgettable evening.
