Bono to Perform at Clooney-organized Haiti Benefit

George Clooney has revealed that U2 frontman Bono as well as Justin Timberlake will be performing at Friday’s “Hope For Haiti,” global concert and telethon to raise money for victims of Haiti’s devastating earthquake. Clooney revealed that he also hopes the show will include performances by Sting, Alicia Keys and Christina Aguilera. The “Up in the Air” star was on the phone networking at this year’s Golden Globes trying to enlist as much star power as he could in an attempt to raise millions of dollars for Haiti. Clooney expects around 40 stars to take part and claimed that the aim of the benefit was to show the people of Haiti that the whole world is paying attention. The event is being co-hosted by George Clooney and Haitian-born Fugees star Wyclef Jean.
