Idol Gives Back

Post by Lynn Farris »

Okay, I'll confess I'm an American Idol fan and have been one for several years.

The last two years they have decided to raise money for Charity - which is a really nice idea given that they have been extremely sucessful. It is a large show with lots of guests and lots of video clips of the charities to which they are donating. All of the charities are worthy ones. But the one that hit me most was the one for Malaria

There are lots of items to give - get stamps or download a tune from tonight on iTunes.

I was wondering if any of you were touched tonight by the videos or the songs?
