Stars hold benefit show for stalled careers, horrible wave thing

 

Tsunami Aid offers hope to victims of 'water thingie that devastated that one place'

NEW YORK--A galaxy of the entertainment industry's once-brightest stars has assembled to stage a benefit concert meant to raise awareness of their stalled careers and money for the horrible wave thing that happened.

"When I heard about the water damage thingie that devastated that one place, I knew I had to be involved," said Gloria Estefan, just one of the former stars headlining "Tsunami Aid: A Concert for Hope." "It's a wonderful opportunity for me to be on TV again, and to bring hope and other stuff to the people affected by this really bad thing."

"The career devastation is almost unimaginable," said co-headliner Diana Ross. "It will require an international response if I'm ever to get on my feet again. And this is just the first step in a long process."

It's a generous sentiment echoed by Canadian singer Sarah McLachlan. "With `Dawson's Creek' off the air now, there's no real place for my dreary and monotonous songs of romantic loss," McLachlan said. "But you put me at a piano with dramatic lighting and footage of weeping refugee children on a big screen behind me and I guarantee you I'll be back in heavy rotation in no time."
