Bono, Sting and Justin Timberlake are amongst the music icons set to appear at a telethon for victims of the Haiti earthquake, according to reports.
George Clooney is coordinating the fundraising concert, following last week's tragedy, which has claimed the lives of many thousands of people.
The Red Cross, Oxfam, Partners In Health and Jean's Yele Haiti Foundation are set to benefit from the event.
The actor confirmed news of the January 22 show, which will be co-hosted by former local resident Wyclef Jean, at last night's Golden Globes.
Meanwhile, Madonna is reported to have donated $250,000 to the fund and Lady GaGa has also promised to raise money.
All proceeds from her upcoming concert at Radio City Music Hall show in New York will go to the effort.
