Miley Cyrus is set to make another trip to Haiti.

The 18 year-old singer, who made her first trip in February with the Starkey Hearing Foundation, said she wanted to go again and is making it happen.

Last weekend she spent time in Minnesota at the Foundation’s Annual Gala where she bid on a trip to the Hurricane ravaged nation.

“After I went on my first mission to Haiti with the Starkey Hearing Foundation, I felt so drawn to helping others hear for the first time and immediately wanted to look for another chance to go back and help again,” she said at the Gala.

Miley ended up with the winning bid for the trip in the silent auction and tweeted how happy she was.

“Going back to Haiti just bid at the @starkeyhearing gala and it’s confirmed! I am so excited! Bringing all my friends this time. #blessed”

At the So The World May Hear Awards Gala, Miley performed for the crowd which included Marlee Matlin, former President Bill Clinton and Kevin Costner.

She shared in a statment:

“I grew up around music with my brothers and sisters and couldn’t imagine what it would be like if we couldn’t hear the magic of music – it’s had such an influence on my life – so I want everyone to have the ability to enjoy sound as it was intended.”

Selena Gomez made a Friday morning appearance on Good Morning America. The seventeen year old Wizards of Waverly Place and Ramona and Beezus star spoke about her time in Haiti, endured a clip of her in her Barney days, and performed her single, ‘Naturally.’ Check it.

Contrary to the rumors floating on the internet this past week, Taylor Swift will not duet with Kanye West on the re-recording of ‘We Are The World.’ The new version of the song is taking place on Monday, February 1st – the day after the Grammy Awards in Los Angeles, California and while Kanye may be there, Swift is headed down under to begin her Australian tour.

To mark the 25th anniversary of the song, the proceeds of this recording – which may include Miley Cyrus and Justin Bieber - will go to Haiti relief funds.

Newlywed Kevin Jonas joined other a-list celebs to raise money for Haiti by answering phone calls from across the country at the Hope For Haiti Telethon on Friday (January 22). Check out Taylor Swift “Breathless” at Hope for Haiti VIDEO here.

While some of our favorite teen stars are doing everything they can to help Haiti, Gossip Girl star Taylor Momsen is currently too busy with her own personal projects to think about the people whose lives were completely destroyed by a 7.0 earthquake.

Taylor told OK!, “Um, right now I’m trying to just finish my record and getting through the last season of Gossip Girl for right now. So not so much thinking about that.” Added Taylor, “But it’s awesome that everyone is ya know working towards a good cause.”

We love Taylor but you cannot live in your own little bubble not wanting to know or trying to understand what is happening around you in the world. Not a good example for a role model… Oh Taylor, Taylor!!

Actor George Clooney will be hosting a telethon to help raise money to aid Haiti at 8pm on ABC January 22, and he is desperately hoping the Twilight stars will join his efforts in order to also captive a younger audience. Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner have already reportedly been approached and would love to participate but they still haven’t confirmed because of their busy schedules.
