As (maybe) many of you I saw the premiere of the remake of "We Are The World" which was written by Michael Jackson and Lionel Richie (... as it's officially stated, I know we MJ fans heard a different version, but officially I stick with the official statement now ;) ...).
I also followed discussions about the song.
Will Michael be in it? Will Paris and Prince be in it? Will Janet be in it? I'll hate this song if Michael isn't in it. It's just money-making. Miley Cyrus can't sing. I want MJ's kids in it. I don't want it. Oh, Michael is in it, they are using him.
And so on. Pretty confusing and tiring. Almost everywhere was someone who complained about something and many people forgot what it is about:
HAITI.
It's not about the singing, it's not about who's HOT and who's NOT. Even if Michael wouldn't appear in it, there would be still artists singing HIS song... uhm... I mean Michael's and Lionel's song *cough*.
Of course, I don't agree with every artist on there, but why should I surround myself with negative emotions when it's still for a good cause? Complaining doesn't make it any better. Instead we should use the energy to support Haiti and to support the fight for Justice.
Is it money-making or true charity? - I don't know. I won't post my opinion here due to lack of information. I didn't read any news or background information on that subject.
And to end this - NO ONE is forced to support WATW 2 in order to help the people on Haiti. You can donate to many different organisations, but more important is THAT you donate. And so did I and I will continue on that way.

Are We The World?
