George Clooney, Bono and Other Celebrities Sit Out Gulf of Mexico Oil Spill Relief - AOL News

George Clooney, Bono and Other Celebrities Sit Out Gulf of Mexico Oil Spill Relief - AOL News:

(May 25) -- In January, when a magnitude-7.0 earthquake killed an estimated 230,000 Haitians and left more than a million others homeless, Hollywood shed a collective, well-choreographed tear, then banded together like a Christopher Guest cast to help put the country back together. The tabloids kept track of the most generous celebrities, noting that Brangelina and Sandra Bullock each donated $1 million, while others, like Sean Penn, decamped to Haiti to work directly on refugee efforts. In perhaps the most visible celebrity relief effort, George Clooney hosted a star-studded telethon that featured performances by Beyonce, Justin Timberlake and, obviously, Bono."
