The much talked American Idol season finale will be more than just the final episode where the winner is reveled, it will be a ambitious poverty-relief campaign, with guest performances by Gwen Stefani, Josh Groban, Pink, Michael Bubl, Annie Lennox, Il Divo and Borat. MTV.com says:
The April 24-25 episodes are aimed at raising awareness and funds for poverty-relief organizations helping children in the United States and Africa. The first night will find the top six finalists on the show singing "life anthems" about hope and compassion, with show sponsors Coke and AT&T donating money to charity for every vote cast via phone or text message. The next night's show will feature the celebrity lineup, which was put together by "Idol" judge Simon Cowell. The money raised from the special programs will be split between organizations including the U.S. Fund for UNICEF, the Global Fund, Save the Children, Nothing but Nets and Malaria No More. In the United States, the money will be focused on organizations that deliver programs to some of the country's most disadvantaged children, while in Africa, funds will be used to provide health and education programs.
Wow. That shit sounds depressing. Honestly, the only way I would watch this nonsense is if it was projected onto Marissa Millers naked ass.
