Celebs re-record the classic charity single We Are the World to raise funds for Haiti
If you were impressed with the amount of stars that Simon Cowell pulled together for the charity rerecording of Everybody Hurts, you'll be staggered by the US equivalent...
Following the Grammys, an impressive list of stars headed to the Jim Henson Studios in Hollywood to rerecord the charity single We Are The World on its 25th anniversary.
Quincy Jones, the producer of the original record that featured Michael Jackson, confirmed the news to E! while an impressive list of stars were seen heading into the studio on Monday, including Miley Cyrus (pictured arriving), Celine Dion, Jennifer Hudson, Justin Bieber, Vince Vaughn, Kanye West and Amber Rose, will.i.am, Wyclef Jean, T-Pain, Randy Jackson, Gladys Knight, Brandy, Faith Evans, Nicole Scherzinger, Harry Connick jr, Bono, Lady Gaga, Sheryl Crow and Nicle Richie.
The latter clearly enjoyed herself, writing on Twitter later:
"I hope Jennifer Hudson wasn't upset that I was out-singing her tonight."
Obviously there won't be a chart rivalry of Joe McElderry and Rage Against The Machine proportions since it's for charity - we'll happily buy BOTH efforts!
