Shakira, Jennifer Lopez & Selena Gomez Are Among Latinos Using Social Media to Fight Hunger


Some of the biggest Latino names in the world – Shakira, Jennifer Lopez, Selena Gomez, Ricky Martin and Enrique Iglesias, among others – are using their social media influence to try to end hunger in East Africa.

The Hollywood Reporter says that each of the 150 celebs will highlight the campaign on their Twitter and Facebook accounts on Tuesday in the hopes of raising awareness and "a global audience of 700 million."    

The project’s main partner is "Save the Children." It will also feature Bob Marley’s 1973 tune “High Tide or Low Tide” as the theme song.

Other stars participating in the effort are Tego Calderón, Taio Cruz, Bruno Mars, Lady Gaga, Justin Bieber and Britney Spears.
