SIMON COWELLL LINES UP STARS FORM US AND UK FOR HAITI RELIEF

Simon Cowell has plenty of pull to get lots of big names on his single, a cover of REM's Everybody Hurts, to raise money for Haiti. Half the proceeds will go to Helping Haiti, a fund set up by The Sun, and the other 50 percent will go to the Disasters Emergency Committee. Some of the big names he already has lined up are Robbie Williams, Mariah Carey, Kylie Minogue, Jay-Z, Susan Boyle, Rod Stewart, Alexandra Burke, Leona Lewis, Cheryl Cole, James Blunt, Miley Cyrus, Michael Buble and Mika. Damn! That's a lot of star power. The song is currently being recorded in L.A. Robbie Williams states, “I'm very honoured to be asked to contribute to the single. We can all do something to help the people of Haiti - and I urge everyone to do what they can.” Agreed. The Hope for Haiti concert brought in almost $58 million last weekend. Sounds like a lot of help is on the way. [source]
