AMY WINEHOUSE has confirmed her appearance at former South African President NELSON MANDELA's 90th birthday concert this summer (08), after reportedly accepting a personal invitation from the ex-politician last month (Apr08). Organisers recently promised further A-list stars would be added to the London bill, in order to "surprise" Mandela and music fans when the gig takes place in Hyde Park on 27 June (08).
And earlier this month (May08), British newspaper the Daily Mail claimed the Back To Black star was stunned to personally hear from Mandela, and quickly accepted his offer. The Back To Black singer will join a host of global superstars to perform on the day, including Queen, Leona Lewis, Annie Lennox and Dame Shirley Bassey.
Other stars due to make an appearance at the birthday celebrations include Will Smith, Robert De Niro, Forest Whitaker, chatshow queen Oprah Winfrey, and former U.S. president Bill Clinton. Tim Massey, International Director of 46664, says: "We are delighted that Amy will be appearing at Hyde Park to celebrate Nelson Mandela's 90th birthday. Amy joins an illustrious list of names showing their support for 46664 and the fight against AIDS. Eminem, U2 and the Spice Girls have also been linked to the concert.

EXCLUSIVE CANADIAN FIRST: MEET AMERICA'S NEW POP/SOUL ARTIST JSTAVO.
EXCLUSIVE CANADIAN FIRST!!
JStavo is a dynamic Virginian crooner based out of Atlanta who has landed into the music business BIG time. Growing up in a great household, encouraging younger kids to follow their dreams as he spoke to KJ about was very interesting. He is an independent artist who is already making waves performing at radio station benefit concerts like top rated WPGC-FM in Washington DC opening for big artists like Amerie, Omarion, Brian Mcknight, and Doug E Fresh.
Below we discovered him on YouTube singing Beyonce's "Halo." It really is funny as he was cleaning the bathroom while the rest of us just sing in the shower.
JStavo struck us with talent. An easy going guy who wants to meet his Canadian fans, has two hit songs "Taken" feat Bambu and "Superman"which struck us to think about that pop/soul genre he says he belongs to. These hits are HOT.
He has his own blog that he solely writes about his daily activities. wants to be a music enterpreneur later endorsing and designing clothing. KJ even asked him when he goes on SNL, would he shout HipHossip out? We had that happen to us when Shawty Lo shouted us out on the BET Hip-Hop Awards in 2008.Like I said in the promo, he's smooth, he's dynamic and he is the next big thing in 2010. JStavo will be seen one day on SNL, singing the anthem at the next Superbowl and even White House events. Now click here to listen to JSTAVO's dynamic phoner at our MySpace portal. More portals are coming. After that, then listen to the hit songs.
