London: Spanish singing legend Gloria Estefan is planning to bring together a host of Latin stars including Ricky Martin, Jennifer Lopez and Shakira to re-record Michael Jackson`s peace anthem `We Are The World`.
The Spanish single will help boost the aid efforts for
earthquake stricken Haiti, reported a news website.
Jackson and Lionel Richie originally collaborated with artists including Diana Ross, Bruce Springsteen and Tina Turner to record the 1985 single to help good causes in Africa.
Richie again brought a new selection of stars together -- including Miley Cyrus, the Jonas Brothers, Jennifer Hudson, Usher and Pink -- for a new version of the track to raise funds to help the earthquake-ravaged Caribbean country.
And now Estefan is planning her own remake of the song in Spanish, with Latin superstars including Ricky Martin, Paulina Rubio, Shakira, Jennifer Lopez, Marc Anthony and Enrique Iglesias.
The Spanish version, titled "Somos El Mundo" has been completely translated, and original co-writer Richie has given
his permission for the remake.
