ENTERTAINMENT NEWS …

“WE ARE THE WORLD” REMAKE

Quincy Jones and Lionel Richie are reportedly recruiting an all-star lineup to re-record 'We Are The World' to celebrate the song's 25th anniversary.


The duo have allegedly urged stars to stay in Los Angeles an extra night after the Grammy Awards this weekend to celebrate a quarter-century since Ken Kragen, Richie and Michael Jackson organised the original 'We Are the World' with Jones.


According to Billboard, artists including Usher, Natalie Cole and John Legend have been invited to take part in the event, which will then be turned into a video and single as in 1985.


Proceeds are expected to be donated to the Haiti earthquake disaster appeal. In 1985, 'We Are The World' profits were donated to African famine relief.
