Rocker Ozzy Sings Selfless Tune
Ozzy Osbourne says he'll donate all proceeds from his Dec. 23 Meadowlands show to Mayor Giuliani's relief charity.
He's also kicking in profits from all Ozzy T-shirts, hats and posters sold during his 33-city Merry Mayhem tour with Rob Zombie, which kicks off Halloween night.
"I think it's time that everybody should do their bit," the British heavy-metal legend, who was here when the World Trade Center came down, told launch.com.
"You know, people complain in my country, people complain in your country, but it could be a lot worse. You could be living in Afghanistan, [where] real estate's really cheap right now."
Meanwhile, Mick Jagger, Billy Joel, Marc Anthony, Meg Ryan, Susan Sarandon, David Spade, Julia Stiles and Denis Leary have added their names to the Oct. 20 "Concert for New York" at Madison Square Garden. All money raised will go to the Robin Hood Relief Fund, established by the Robin Hood Foundation, with funds to be distributed to charities benefiting the victims of the terrorist attacks, including the Twin Towers Fund.
Stars who've already signed on to the benefit include Paul McCartney, The Who, Bon Jovi and James Taylor. Tickets go on sale Monday through Ticketmaster.
Giuliani established the Twin Towers Fund to ensure support for families of uniformed workers affected by the disaster is coordinated, responsive, responsible and accountable.
The fund
had received pledges of $77 million.
