Rocking for a cause

American RnB superstar Justin Timberlake will rock for a cause when he guests on Grammy-winning record producer, singer and rapper Timbaland’s Shock Value Tour II concert on March 27.

Lives will definitely change when Timberlake, Timberland and Jojo perform at the SM Mall of Asia concert ground because the proceeds of the concert will be donated to the PLDT Smart Foundation Inc. (PSF).

The PSF is the social outreach arm of the country’s oldest and largest telecommunications conglomerate, the Philippine Long Distance Telephone Co., and its wireless subsidiary, Smart Communications Inc.

“I know Justin [Timberlake] will donate a portion of it so I’m confident that we’ll get something although it may not be a huge amount,” said PSF President Butch Meily during a roundtable with editors and reporters of The Manila Times on Monday.

The concert will benefit the music department of a public school in Angono, Rizal, and about 100 orphans who lost their families when Typhoon Ondoy ravaged the country’s Metro Manila region, causing the worst flooding in more than four decades.

Recent report suggested that Justin Timberlake and Prince have been booked to perform at a tribute show dedicated for Michael Jackson. The upcoming gig reportedly is initiated by Jermaine Jackson and will include Santana on the performers line-up.

Additionally, the older brother of the King of Pop was said to have signed Janet Jackson to fill the vacant slot in the Jackson Five during the tribute.

The gig is expected to take place at Wembley Arena in London on June 8 and rumored to be broadcast globally. Other rumored performers include Shakira, Earth Wind and Fire, Usher, Nelson Mandela, Jennifer Hudson, Whitney Houston, Jabbawockeez, Seal and Ne-Yo. There is no official confirmation regarding the report as the official site of Michael Jacksontribute show still mentions the gig as a “coming soon” event.

Jermaine Jackson has planned the tribute show since last year. It was originally planned to be held in London before then moved to Vienna and postponed until 2010 after organizer struggled to get stars to perform at short notice. The gig was then canceled after its main sponsor decided to back out of the project.
