According to the Hollywood Reporter, Clooney is urging his famous pals to appear on the telethon to aid in fund raising.

Stars including Ben Stiller, Jessica Alba, Shakira, Oprah Winfrey and Chris Martin have also called for people to lend their support to those left homeless after Tuesday’s disaster.
