See what got our coffee pots bubbling over this Tuesday morning:
Alicia Keys is no longer “dead.” Her Keep a Child Alive AIDS organization has raised over $1 million dollars to provide medicine and facilities for HIV/AIDS stricken towns in Africa and India. Keys, alongside celeb friends Usher, Kim Kardashian, Serena Williams, Lady Gaga and others, collectively raised over 500K. Billionaire Stewie Rah Rah matched it with $500K of his own cash. Many thought they couldn’t do it, but they did! [ABC]
