Wyclef Jean: “We Spent The Day In Haiti Picking Up Dead Bodies…”

Reporters caught up with Hatian Superstar Wyclef Jean. See the emotional video below.

As stated earlier this week, Wyclef says five-dollars will be automatically donated to the Yele Haiti Earthquake Fund through those who use their cell phones to text “Yele” to 501501. The public can also visit www.Yele.org to make a donation.

Hip-hop mogul Russell Simmons says golf icon Tiger Woods has some big plans in store for the nation of Haiti following Tuesday’s massive earthquake. Simmons tweeted on his Twitter feed late Wednesday night, quote, “Tiger woods is doing something AMAZING!!!!” He followed up with another message that read, quote, “I heard tiger woods donating to send a cargo plane with a mobile hospital out there. Keep ur prayers high!”

Simmons is using his website, GlobalGrind.com to release information about the latest developments on how hip-hop’s brightest stars are helping the victims of Haiti’s 7.0-magnitude quake. A statement on GlobalGrind.com from DJ Whoo Kid reads, quote, “This problem is so crazy, so I’ve teamed with Wyclef Jean and his charity and relief efforts. I know that I am not a leader, and I’m very inexperienced in handling these critical situations, so I’ve decided to work with someone who knows the ins and outs of Haiti and is well respected by Haitians and President Obama.” Simmons and Whoo Kid are directing people to Yele.org, where they can donate money to Wyclef Jean’s charitable organization that has a history of helping the people of Haiti.

Keep Haiti in your prayers

    SAD(Sigh) I pray that all would turn away from worldly things and accept Christ as your Saviour and Lord. Time is winding up very quickly, just look at those babies, children, elderly and the young strewn on the ground like trash. I know this is a gossip blog, but tommorrow is not promised to no man..give him your life today.

    These photos brought me to tears. I have a one year old and to see the picture of those kids hurts my heart. I was not expecting to see dead people on your sight but we dont have to see the bodies piling up to know that we need to help. We can only help those trying to make it through. Please help everyone!

    Wow bigs up to Wyclef and anybody that is trying to help and doing something. This is a sad situation. I just hope for the best. Take care of the people’s welfare and health and rebuild and clean up as little as possible.

  6. Frost says:

    An absolute tragedy. I also cried after seeing the photos of all those people, especially the little babies.

    I really hope that Haiti gets the help they need and as soon as possible. It seems as if the help is coming in so slowly, and I’m not even there.

    The people of Haiti are definately in my heart and prayers.

    I JUST READ ON SANDRA ROSE THAT SHE MIGHT WANT HER DONATION BACK FROM YELE B.C SOMEONE SENT HER A STORY SAYING THE YELE FOUNDATION WASN’T ON TOP OF THE IRS GAME , PD WYCLEF AND SOME OF HIS STUDIO BILLS. WELL THIS STORY DOES NOTHING TO MAKE ME FEEL BAD ABOUT MY DONATION TO YELE OR ASKING OTHERS TO DONATE FOR THE EARTHQUAKE RELIEF. IF ANY OF US KNOW HAITI’S HISTORY WE KNOW THERE’S BEEN ALOT OF NATIONAL UPREST & CIVIL WAR FIGHTING. BEING THAT YOU’RE DEALING WITH ALOT OF REBELS AND STREET GANGS WHICH WHOM YOU MAY HAVE TO DEAL WITH IN A DIFFERENT MANNER. SO WHO KNOWS WHAT WYCLEF HAD TO DO WITH FUNDS TO GET INTO CERTAIN NEIGHBORHOODS OR TO GET A TRUCE . STREET JUSTICE AND LAWS ARE ALOT DIFFERENT THAN CIVIL AND NOT TAX REPORTABLE OR DEDUCTIBLE. AND IF HE’S THERE WORKING FOR PEACE OR AIDING THE HOMELESS & SICK THEN I HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH HIS STUDIO RENT BEING PAID BY YELE. HIS EFFORTS ARE NOT A 1 TIME DONATION EVEN IF ITS $1 MILLION ITS HIS LIFE’S MISSION SO ALL THE TIME HE SPENDS THERE IS TIME HE’S NOT MAKING MUSIC OR DOING CONCERTS WHICH EQUALS ZERO DOLLARS FOR HIS POCKETS. JUST LIKE NOW HE’S THERE PICKING UP DEAD BODIES ALL DAY WITH HIS WIFE BY HIS SIDE, WHAT DOLLAR AMOUNT DO WE PUT ON THAT? HOW MANY OF THE NAH SAYERS LIKE S.R. WANTING THEIR $5, $10, $30 OR WHATEVER $$$ BACK WOULD DO THAT? WHATEVER YOU GAVE IF YOU GAVE FROM THE HEART THEN YOU SHOULDN’T BE WORRIED ABOUT THIS B/C IF HE’S A FRAUD GOD WILL TAKE CARE OF HIM SOONER THAN LATER. BELIEVE THAT. JENNY JONES!!!!
