Fox announced today that Ellen DeGeneres will join Ryan Seacrest once again to host the popular Idol Gives Back charity show. DeGeneres and Seacrest will host from the Kodak Theatre on Wednesday, April 9 (7:30 pm/ET), to air on Fox.
But of course we're all dying to know is who will be at the benefit. Ready for this list? Joining the show to raise awareness and funds to benefit various U.S. and international charities will be Maroon 5, Heart, Gloria Estefan, Boyz II Men and the Clark Brothers. Those bands will "join previously announced international talent and sports figures including Bono, Brad Pitt, Reese Witherspoon, Miley Cyrus, Mariah Carey, Eli Manning, Peyton Manning, Fergie, Chris Daughtry, Carrie Underwood, Annie Lennox, John Legend and Snoop Dogg," according to Fox. That's right: Snoop will be in 'da house!
