Simon Cowell is to produce a charity single in aid of relief for the devastating earthquake that hit Haiti last week. The song will be a cover of REM's "Everyday Hurts", sung by a multitude of artists (many yet to be confirmed) and the government has waived the VAT. Hopefully this will raise loads of money for the appeal! Also, George Clooney has organised a global telethon "Hope for Haiti" which will be broadcast worldwide on Friday evening/Saturday morning (1 am UK time) with a multitude of stars performing - Madonna and Beyonce will appear together with Bono and The Edge, Jay-Z and Rihanna, who will all be performing together in London. Wyclef Jean, who is a Haitian-American, Bruce Springsteen, Jennifer Hudson, Mary J Blige, Shakira and Sting will perform in New York!
Your Saturday questions are: -
- Which surrealist artist died in Spain today in 1989?
- Viktor Yushchenko (right) was inaugurated as President of which former Soviet state today in 2005?
- Who was born today in 1919 and managed Liverpool to six League Championships and three European Cup wins in nine years?
