THERE COMES A TIME WHEN WE HEED A CERTAIN CALL: You thought supergroup charity singles were a thing of the past? (e.g., "We Are The World," "Hands Across America,""That's What Friends Are For") You're wrong--local radio just played the theme song to the upcoming (and quite worthy) "Stand Up To Cancer" event--"Just Stand Up"--featuring an all female supergroup--Mariah (who's apparently dropped her last name), Beyonce, Mary J. Blige, Rihanna, Fergie, cancer survivors Sheryl Crow and Melissa Etheridge, Natasha Bedingfield, Miley Cyrus, Leona Lewis, Carrie Underwood, Keyshia Cole, Leann Rimes, Ashanti, and Ciara. And yes, it's everything you could hope for in the cheesy charity single category. Personally, I think the ad that featured Eddie Vedder's "Rise" was much more effective, though.
