Madonna has confirmed via her website that she is going to join the growing list of performers at the telethon organized by George Clooney that is trying to raise butt loads of money for Haiti. The telethon will air this Friday evening. Among the other performers are Justin Timberlake, Christina Aguilera, Rihanna, Bruce Springsteen, Mary J. Blige, Jennifer Hudson, Shakira, Taylor Swift and Bono. Madonna had previously released this statement:"My prayers are with the people of Haiti. I can’t imagine the terrible pain and suffering they are experiencing. Sadly the depths of the tragedy are just becoming known and the need for our support grows more urgent with every passing moment. I have given a donation of $250,000 to assist Haiti’s earthquake victims through Partner’s in Health (http://www.pih.org/) one of Haiti’s leading health care providers. I urge all of my friends and fans around the world to join me collectively to match my contribution or give in any way you can. We must act now. Thank you for your support” Madonna
