Charity

Hey M Girls!

The lads of One Direction just released the official artwork for their cover 'One Way or Another' -- the single is part of their work for Comic Relief's Red Nose Day which on March 15 (just 42 days away!). The money raised from the 1D single will be used to help educate poor children.

In the beginning of the month, the boys visited Africa for the same charity.

"We are really excited to be part of Red Nose Day this year. We recorded Blondie's One Way or Another and we really want the song to raise lots of money and for people to show their support by going out and buying themselves a copy," Niall dishes.

Louis and the rest of 1D are super-excited about the opportunity. He gushes: "Getting the chance to perform Blondie's song will be incredible. We're so excited! Red Nose Day is a great excuse to have a lot of fun and to raise money, please get involved."

Here's a behind the scenes sneak peek vid of them rehearsing the song while they were on their recent trip in Japan:

Hey M Girls!

Did you know One Direction was recently in Africa? Yep, the guys went as part of their involvement with Comic Relief and recorded a cover of Blondie's 'One Way or Another', which is this year's Red Nose Day charity single. How fun! While they were there, the boys were truly touched by everything they experienced. Check out what they had to say:

Harry Styles tweeted, "Today was the most amazing day I've had so far...In my life ever." He later added, "@rednoseday Thank you so much for having us. It was amazing and we'll see you soon xx." Niall Horan also updated fans about their trip via Twitter, saying, "Just arrived back from Accra, Ghana! Best life experience ever! I've seen the slums right in front of me! This is no joke! They really need your help! Poverty is real!"

Selena and Justin had a total blast at Disneyland yesterday, where they rode rides together and were seen smiling and laughing together. They even ran into Selena's old Wizards on-screen mom, Maria Canals-Barrera! Check out the pic Maria tweeted--loving Selena's bold purple streaks!!

So much fun! In other sweet JB news, Justin is teaming up with Stratford Hyundai to re-build the Skate Park in his hometown, Stratford, Canada! Last time he was there, JB autographed a red 2012 Hyundai Genesis Coupe 2.0T. The car will be put up for an online public auction on eBay, with bidding starting this Friday! The entire proceeds from the auction will be donated to the local Stratford Skate Park to help rebuild it. So nice that JB continues to give back to his hometown and other charities!

Let's dish:
-What do you think of Jelena's Disneyland date? Do you like Sel's hair? Would you bid on JB's signed car?

Hey M Girls!

Justin has always been committed to helping others -- that's one of the many reasons we love him so much! Recently, JB teamed up with Ellen Degeneres to visit Whitney Elementary School, where many of the students are poor or homeless. Justin performed his hits "Mistletoe" and "Baby" for the kids, and then he surprised them with $100,000 for the school AND $100,000 so that all of the students could have toys for the holidays -- so generous!

Check out these videos from Justin's very heartwarming day:

Here Justin reads the school's motto -- too cute!

And he also answers students' questions and talks about Selena!! You have to watch his response to the first Q:

Hey M Girls-

When news hit recently that rapper 50 Cent wanted to work with Justin Bieber, many were left wondering if these two would be dueting on J-Bieb's upcoming CD. But while it's true that 50 wants to team up with Justin, it's not in the recording studio! You see, recently the rapper launched a new line of energy drinks called "Street King." All proceeds from the drink will go towards a charity that brings food to hungry people in Africa. So far, "Street King" has been flying off the shelves, with enough money raised to feed 2.5 million kids in Africa. And now, 50 is looking get other artists like Justin Bieber, Lady Gaga and Drake involved with the project as well. In Justin's case, it looks promising! Check out what he tweeted to 50 just the other day:

Sounds like an amazing cause. We wouldn't be surprised if the super-giving Justin stepped up to help in some way!

So let's dish:
- Have you tried 50 Cent's new energy drink "Street King?" What charities would love to get involved with? Comment back!

Hey M Girls!

Can Justin can get any more talented? We don't think so! Over the weekend, he hit the basketball court to play in Ludacris' "LudaDay Charity Basketball Tournament" to help raise money for the Ludacris foundation. And Team Bieber didn't disappoint -- they beat Ludacris' team and raised $10,000 for charity--wow! Check out this video of Justin playing:

Congrats, JB! So let's dish:
-Do you think Justin's a good b-ball player? What sport would you love to see him play?

Comment back! And for more awesome Justin dish--including his confession that he "only had 2 friends in school" make sure to pick up the new issue of M, on stands NOW!

Hey M girls!

We had the amazing opportunity to hang out with Beyoncé this week before she took the stage for her "I AM..." tour here in New York City! She talked about a new campaign that she's passionate about called "Show Your Helping Hand," which works to fight hunger in America by collecting non-perishable food items before her concerts!

We were shocked to find out just how big of a problem hunger is in our country...and Beyoncé was, too! "This is really important to me because 1 in 8 Americans don't have food, and that was something that was really surprising to me," B said.

You can get involved, too! Beyoncé encourages her fans to visit www.showyourhelpinghand.com, where you can submit codes from specially marked boxes of Hamburger Helper to help fight hunger. She also says that fans who attend her show may donate food items at designated sites!

This is an awesome campaign that Beyoncé is working on, and we're so glad we got to hear her speak about it. And of course we took some exclusive pics to show you!

Let's dish:
-What causes are most important to you?
