HOPE for HAITI NOW concert Friday and repeated Saturday

 

Found this article on BBC WORLD / news: MTV and Viva will show the concert again Saturday (see more below in the article).

 

Stars line up for Haiti benefit concert

 

A benefit concert for the victims of the Haiti earthquake, hosted by George Clooney and featuring JAY-Z and MADONNA is set to take place later.

Other acts taking part in the two-hour Hope for Haiti telethon include Bono, The Edge and Rihanna, who pre-recorded their performances in London on Friday. The concert will be shown on all major US TV channels, MTV in the UK and worldwide on YouTube from 0100 GMT.

 

An estimated 1.5 million people have been left homeless by the earthquake.

As many as 200,000 people have been killed by the 7.0-magnitude quake, according to some estimates.

 

CHARITY SINGLE

The benefit concert will take place in New York, Los Angeles, London and Haiti. More than 100 Hollywood and music stars are understood to have agreed to take part.

Haitian-born rapper Wyclef Jean - who set up the charity foundation Yele Haiti - Bruce Springsteen, Jennifer Hudson, Mary J Blige, Shakira and Sting will perform in New York.

Rihanna, meanwhile, will perform a cover version of Bob Marley's Redemption Song, which she has released to raise money for the people of Haiti.

Film stars making appearances will include Brad Pitt, Ben Stiller, Clint Eastwood, Denzel Washington, Halle Berry, Julia Roberts, Leonardo DiCaprio, Matt Damon, Meryl Streep, Nicole Kidman, Tom Hanks and Will Smith.

George Clooney, who organised the event, told MTV: "It's a big world out there, and we all have a lot of responsibility to look out for people who can't look out for themselves."

"So what we can do is first and foremost, raise money. Period. That's it ...

"If I thought we could all pick up shovels and go in there and help without being in the way, I think a lot of people would do that."

 

The live programme can be seen online via YouTube, MySpace, Hulu, Fancast, AOL, MSN, Yahoo!, Bing.com, BET.com, MTV.com, CNN.com, VH1.com and Rhapsody.

 

 

The show will also be repeated in the UK at 0900 GMT on Saturday morning, on both MTV and its sister channel VIVA.

 

 

Meanwhile, Rod Stewart, Leona Lewis, JLS and Michael Buble have signed up to provide vocals for a Haiti charity single, organised by Simon Cowell. They will record a cover of REM's ballad Everybody Hurts.

It might be a new song called "an oldie and a goldie"

 

 

also i looked on twitter and apperently beyonce and coldplay are doing a duet dunno were they got that info from!!

 

EDIT: igotaradio On MTV UK they just announced that B will performing Halo with Chris Martin of Coldplay!!!

 

True, they could do :laugh3:

 

Beyonce and Chris doing Halo would be quite cool I think. I'm excited to see how much of this is true!! :D

 

2 hours to go :dance:

Really? Will Chris just play piano during Halo then? :confused:

 

I just can't wait to see what happens. :blush:

 

 

AND I REALLY HOPE I GET TOM HANKS WHEN I CALL IN. :D

:shocked3: OMG, so it is true!! I watched a video on the MTV site earlier of George Clooney talking about the guests they had lined up and planning things, and another guy in the room mentioned Chris performing Halo with Beyonce. I don't quite know how that'll work as I thought she would be in the US? :confused: Perhaps they pre-recorded it already or something. Or perhaps she's in London. I'm confused and I don't know what I'm talking about! :lol: But I can't wait to see them duet, first with Jay now with B. Hehe. :D

 

Damn I wish I could be in the US tonight, I want to phone in to make my donation and have a A lister star on the other end of the line!! :shifty: I think if I had to choose out of that line up, I'd have to pick Tom Hanks or Will Smith. :awesome: Are they really going to be answering the phones? Or will it be pre-recorded messages... :lol:

I think it mentioned earlier in one of the articles that Jay Z and Beyonce are in London for this...

 

I might be wrong though

Ohhh, interesting. :wacky: I wonder if they came over here especially for it. That's great of them if they did.

I'm not sure, I don't even remember which article it was in. I've read so many about this today :laugh3:

Yeah :dance: And I'm so tired ... I need a cup of coffee now :escaping2:

Shit I don't think I'll be able to make it til 2am :\

 

But are the guys actually playing at 1am UK time or will we have to wait even more ?

I'm not too bad at the moment, I'm hoping I'll make it or at least make it until Coldplay have been on :laugh3:

 

knowing my luck they'll be on near the end!!

it starts here (france, belgium,...) at 2am and ends at 4am .

Here too, I'm really tired but I'm going to watch it!

I'm not that tired right now :thinking:

I hope I will feel the same way in three hours :laugh3:

It's 1am in the UK. I'll definitely see the start of it, whether I last until 3am is another matter :laugh3:

^^You're crazy :tongue:

 

Nah it's definitely too late, I guess I'll have to wait for tomorrow :bomb:

If Chris and Beyoncé are playing together I'd like to see Single Ladies :laugh3:

 

 

edit: ^ Oh come on Perrine you can stay awake!... If not, try some alcohol :drunk:

I stayed up for 52 hours once, during school :rolleyes: it was really funny :laugh3:

^^You're crazy :tongue:

 

 

Haha, I know :D

*ignores* :shifty:

 

Naah if I were drunk I'd totally be able to do something else on my laptop instead of watching it :D

I gotta wake up early, leave comments please, and enjoy the night girls ! :dance:

Well I lasted 48 hours camping out for Coldplay tickets with less than an hours sleep so I should be able to manage :laugh3:
