She is asking fans to extend their hands to help in the relief effort.

"The organization I work with, Artists for Peace and Justice, supports the efforts of Fr Rick Frechette," she tells Us. "Fr. Rick is a doctor and priest who has spent more than two decades in Haiti building badly needed hospitals, schools, and orphanages. He is also responsible for distributing the only free clean water in the slums of Port au Prince.

"We take no overhead. That's almost unheard of for a non-profit organization," she says. "I can say with pure confidence, from first-hand knowledge that this is one of the most effective ways to offer critical, and sustainable help to the people of Haiti."
