This past weekend many young stars went out to support the I Heart Haiti Kids and URBAN BORN global youth benefit concert and book drive for Haiti kids, held at Six Flags Magic Mountain in California. The goal of the event, which was hosted by actress Kyla Pratt and Q-Deezy from Power 106, was to bring awareness, collect books and raise funds to rebuild schools for Haiti kids. Among the young performers were Mishon (profile), Blake Hightower (profile), New Boyz, Romeo and The College Boyys, JoJo, Lil Mama, Sean Kingston, Ariel Winter, Cymphonique, Fabulous Girls, Lil King, Lil Fresh Boyz, Montana Tucker and more. The concert was shown live on www.LiveStream.com. If you missed any of the performances see them now on YouTube or click here.
