Cowell to produce single for Haiti

LONDON (AP) - Simon Cowell is planning a charity single to benefit victims of the earthquake in Haiti.

The "American Idol" and "X-Factor" judge may use singers Susan Boyle, Leona Lewis and other familiar voices on the single.

He says British leaders asked him to help raise money to ease the impact of the catastrophic quake.

Cowell says the goal is to raise as much money as possible in a short period of time. He says he plans to release the record within 10 days.

The British government and many private agencies are already sending large quantities of aid to the stricken Caribbean nation.
