This Friday, several concerned celebrities will be gathering to participate in the Hope for Haiti television telethon originally organized by hottie George Clooney.

And in some very exciting news to every tween and Twilight fanatic out there, Robert Pattinson will also be making an appearance.

The hottie will be appearing from London and presenting via satellite. Also set to appear from England are Jay-Z and Bono who are scheduled to perform.

But good thinking with R-Patz. That will definitely help generate younger viewers old enough to donate themselves or beg their parents to donate and help.

Other celebs helping to present or manning the phone banks will include Brad Pitt, Zac Efron, Sandra Bullock, Renee Zellweger, Colin Farrell, Courteney Cox and many more. As for performers, we'll get a taste of Taylor Swift, Christina Aguilera, Shakira, Alicia Keys, and Bruce Springsteen.

And hosting will be George Clooney in Los Angeles, Anderson Cooper in Haiti, and Wyclef John in NYC. The benefit is scheduled to last two hours and will air this Friday on all major television networks.

Make sure to tune in AND phone in!

We love us some Shakira. And it seems her boyfriend Antonio does too.

The lovely singer was spotted yesterday grabbing a bite to eat at a restaurant in Punta del Este, Uruguay with her man by her side.

After lunch, the couple headed off hand-in-hand looking completely in love.

Too cute!

But that green dress on our Shaki isn't very faltering. Though somehow she still manages to look gorgeous.

Congrats are in order for Emilio Estefan.

The Grammy Award-winning producer has just published his first book, which hits stores today.

Estefan's story, THE RHYTHM OF SUCCESS: How an Immigrant Produced His Own American Dream, chronicles his life as a young boy leaving Cuba, arriving in the US broke and with nothing but a dream.

He talks about meeting a then shy Gloria. whom he later married and about his struggles as he tried to prove people wrong by showing that Latin music had a mass appeal.

He goes on to mention his involvement in helping bring to the mainstream a new set of Latin singers such as hotties Ricky Martin and Shakira.

Estefan's not only a producer, but also a songwriter, business owner, artist manager, and investor.

We can't wait to read the book!

Impressive!

Justin Timberlake has reached the top spot for a list of celebrity charity earners with his work for the Shriners Hospital for Children.

The singer netted more than $9 million for the charity blowing both Madonna with Raising Malawi and Pamela Anderson with PETA out of the water at $5.5 million and $4.8 million respectively.

Oprah's contribution to her personal charity Oprah Angel Network reached almost $4 million and U2's Bono for the ONE Foundation contributed $3.6 million.

Rounding out the top ten charity earners are Angelina Jolie, Rihanna, George Clooney, Salma Hayek and Shakira.
