Hollywood Celebrities Exit Social Media Networking for a Cause

 

Who would have thought that Social Media Networking such as Twitter and Facebook can be used to generate money for a cause? With the advent of Social Media Networking, people all over the world are being connected, and this has made the fans of Hollywood celebrities happy because they can instantly connect to their idol celebrities by following them on Twitter or by adding them as friend in Facebook.

But, this is not the case anymore. Hollywood celebrities agree to exit Social Media Networking. The following celebrities have just turned their back from their Social Media accounts:

- Lady Gaga
-Justin Timberlake
-Usher
-Jennifer Hudson
-Ryan Seacrest
-Elijah Wood
- Serena Williams
-Swizz Beatz

The reason why these celebrities decided to temporarily close their account is because of Alicia Key’s charity called "Keep A Child Alive".

In order to keep a child alive, celebrities will die first on the digital world. But, fans can revive the lives of the Hollywood Celebrities by buying back. Fans must buy their lives back. The mechanics is that, fans can make $10 text-message donations to “Keep a Child Alive.” The rules are once a celebrity raises one million dollars, they can now reactivate their Social Media Networking account.

The R&B singer Alicia Keys is the brain behind this. She convinced all her famous celebrity friends to quit Social Media Networking until they raised a million dollars to save a child. Alicia Keys is the global ambassador for the organization.

The “Keep a Child Alive” is an organization that provides medication to children who are in need and with AIDS that live in Africa and India.
What a clever move!

Michael Jackson’s Posthumous Single Released

 

If you think Michael Jackson’s journey on influencing people with his music has ended, you are wrong. On November 15th 2010, the new single of Michael Jackson has been officially released. The new single is a duet with a rap icon Akon and the title of this single is “Hold My Hand”.

The newly released song “Hold My Hand” is the carrier single of the  upcoming collection of previously unheard Jackson material. This is a compilation of songs which have been organized and created by Michael Jackson before he died one  and a half years ago. The single “Hold My Hand” has actually leaked to the public way back year 2008 but it does not make a big sound. It might be because people are not yet ready to hear the song or simply not the type of song for the new generation. If you will listen to this single, you will find it sounds like the mid-’90s Hootie & the Blowfish song

Before Michael Jackson died, he wanted the single “Hold My Hand” to be the first single on his next album. But unfortunately, that next album was not being materialized because of his death. But through the collaboration of Akon, Michael’s wish has been granted. Most of the songs included in the “Michael” album has been culled from the material pre-recorded three years ago. 

This is the tracklist of the newest album of Michael Jackson:

1. "Hold My Hand" (Featuring Akon)
2. "Hollywood Tonight"
3. "Keep Your Head Up"
4. "(I Like) The Way You Love Me"
5. “Monster" (Featuring 50 Cent)
6. "Best of Joy,"
7. "Breaking News"
8. "(I Can’t Make It) Another Day" (Featuring Lenny Kravitz)
9. "Behind the Mask"
10. "Much Too Soon"

But if you think all the people in the world is hooked and getting addicted to the Twilight story, you are wrong. The people at Rio De Janeiro is protesting against the filming of the final installment of the movie. People in Rio de Janeiro experienced inconvenience because of the filming of the movie in their place. They could not even easily access their homes because of the Twilight filming.

Residents in the Central Lapa district set the crew’s portable toilet into fire to show their protest because they are already fed up with the inconvenience.

Because of this, tough security has been enabled for the entire production. The filming of the said movie will in one way or another contribute to the economy of Rio de Janeiro positively.

The movie is set to be in theater by next year and in the year 2012. So the protest will definitely not a hinder to finish the film.
