Brad Pitt Gives Back on American Idol - Reminder

I just wanted to pop in on this lovely weekend evening to remind those of you who don’t regularly watch American Idol (and if you’re not, what a shame, you’re missing out on the awesome David Cook!) that this coming week on April 9th, the regular show will be put aside for their second season of Idol Gives Back. The special event, which won an Emmy for last year’s episode, raises awareness as well as money for six different charity organizations – Children’s Defense Fund, The Global Fund, Make It Right, Malaria No More, Save the Children, and The Children’s Health Fund.

A great deal of celebrities will be getting involved, several from last last year, and this year one of the new faces on the special will be Brad Pitt.

If you don’t want do miss Brad Pitt on Idol Gives Back make sure you check your local listings. It comes on at 7:30 pm in my time zone, but double check for yours. I’ll be sure to get some video footage up as quickly as possible for those of you in countries that don’t air the show.

    Thanks Sherry for the reminder. I catch the show every week. David Cook is THE man to beat this year!! Can’t wait to see Brad and other celebrities on the show who are out there to make a difference in the world.

    Alayna – I am Canadian, so I can’t vote, but I love to watch. David Cook is my absolute favorite this season so if I was in the US I would definitely be voting for him. I vote for Canadian Idol if there’s anyone I really like. :)

    I will definitely be watching it because of Brad Pitt. I watch American Idol once in a while, since I can’t sing I am not really into it but because of Brad I will make an exemption. I can’t wait, I hope they raised a lot of million of $’s.
    God bless the Jolie-Pitt’s.

    Thanks Sherry for the reminder, now April 9th is a Wednesday, right? I haven’t watch American Idol this year because Simon, Paula and Randy irritate me for some reason. I watched “Dancing With the Stars” instead but on April 9th, I will make sure, I see AI.

    Thanks Sherry, i will try really hard, out of my way to watch it, i made a decision not to watch AI again since last year, they didnt give it to the best singer who was Melinda Dolittle and they even claimed that AI is not all about singling but personality and face, i was so pissed off but bicos of ours Brad, i will try and tune in and out probably bicos of dancsing with the stars.
    Thanks and remain blessed for all your good work and for making us happy with your great influence on following our hearts as Bradangie fans. bye

    Thanks Sherry, my granddaughter has her first baseball game that night, so I am hoping that Brad doesn’t go on until later in the evening. If I miss it I will be happy to know you will put up the video for us. I also like David Cook, but I also like the other young David. His voice is beautiful.

    Because of Ryan Seacrest I stopped watching American Idol, once in a while I glanced at it then switched channel. But because Brad will be there, I will watch it. For our idol, I will do it regardless of Ryan & Simon.God bless the Jolie-Pitt’s.

    Apparently they did. :)

    Ryan irritates me too and now I hear Ellen may not be a part of it due to scheduling problems. Can’t imagine listening to his drivel for a minute let alone 1-2hours, or however long the show is!
