MTV and their Choose or Lose campaign have partnered up with CNN to support veterans of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. On October 24th, ‘A Night for Vets: An MTV Concert for the BRAVE’ will air at 8PM on MTV. The show’s name is a reference to the petition MTV and several veterans’ organizations created called the Bill of Rights for American Veterans (BRAVE). Some of the celebrities that will take part include 50 Cent, Ludacris and Saving Abel, Kanye West, Kid Rock, Fall Out Boy, Angels and Airwaves, Nelly, Juanes and Taylor Swift. The president of MTV said “It doesn’t matter where you stand on the war, we can all agree that young veterans serving our country must receive the benefits they’ve earned for their sacrifices. We aim to elevate these issues and ensure they’re a top priority for our government officials.”
Pete Wentz Cares

If you think Pete Wentz is all about hair products and being Ashlee Simpson’s pimp and/or arm candy, think again. The Fall Out Boy bassist actually cares. Pete was in Washington, D.C. on Wednesday with Invisible Children – the non-profit organization aimed at raising awareness of the plight of children displaced by the bloody war in the Central African nation of Uganda. The so-called invisible children are kidnapped from their homes and forced to fight in the war. Pete was able to meet with members of congress including Senator Russell Feingold to try and bring more attention to the very serious issue.
