Bruce Springsteen, aka the dude who does basically everything, and Jay-Z, who, as we told you a few days back, has been collaborating with U2 on a Haiti related song, have been added to Friday’s Hope for Haiti television extravaganza. The two heavyweights join the previously confirmed likes of U2, Dave Matthews Band, Justin Timberlake, Alicia Keys, Sting, Christina Aguilera, Stevie Wonder, John Legend, Jennifer Hudson, and Mary J. Blige. In all, some 100 celebrities are expected to participate.
