The list of artists, who will be donating their time and talent to raise money for the Hope for Haiti charity event, continues to grow.

George Clooney, who organised the event which will take place in New York and Los Angeles, has managed to gather some of the biggest stars in the world for the cause.  The telethon’s goal is to raise money for the country of Haiti, which suffered a devastating earthquake on January 12.

The event will air tomorrow night (January 22) on all American television networks, and will feature such stars as Bono, Jay-Z, Bruce Springsteen, Coldplay, Taylor Swift, Shakira, Rihanna, Dave Matthews Band, Justin Timberlake, Alicia Keys, Sting, Christina Aguilera, Stevie Wonder, Jennifer Hudson and Mary J. Blige.

According to MTV News, Bono and The Edge of U2 quickly wrote a song that they will perform with Jay-Z for the event.

Clooney will host the show with Wyclef Jean and CNN host Anderson Cooper.
