Although I’m pretty sure that this was in development before the tragedy in Haiti, Wyclef Jean is now helming the twenty-fifth anniversary remake of “We Are The World”, rumored to have quite the eclectic list of performers: Kanye West, Celine Dion, Pink, Lady Gaga, Jeff Bridges, Tyrese, Jennifer Hudson, Jordin Sparks, JoBros, Lil Wayne, Natalie Cole.

Considering that you can’t even find the original version on YouTube anymore, maybe a change is in order. What do you think — publicity stunt, or does it have the same emotional heft as the 1985 original?
