It's not a complicated process. Donors simply call into the telethon and pledge various financial contributions to the person on the other end of the line. But instead of an everyday volunteer, "Hope for Haiti Now: A Global Benefit for Earthquake Relief" which airs Friday at 8 p.m. ET, will feature some fans-favorite entertainers soliciting funds.
"It'll be the biggest bank of faces that you recognize answering the phones," said George Clooney.
Clooney is hoping the star power will help the charitable effort reel in much-needed money for the survivors in Haiti.
Shakira, Christina Aguilera, Jay-Z, Beyoncé, and Madonna are among the superstars set to perform at the event, while former President Bill Clinton and Will Smith are some of the notable names who will make appearances.
Clooney is thankful to all the stars who have volunteered their time in one way or another. He was particularly excited about those who will be manning the phones.
"You got about 130 to 140 actors, athletes, singers and television hosts, and they're all coming up not to be on TV, but simply to answer the phones," he marveled. (MTVNEWS)
