British songstress Amy Winehouse has announced that she will perform at a concert next month in honor of Nelson Mandela's 90th birthday. The former South African president's birthday is July 18, but the concert will be held in London's Hyde Park June 27.
The concert will benefit Mandela's AIDS charity and features performances by Queen, Simple Minds, Leona Lewis and the Soweto Gospel Choir. Celebrities in attendance will reportedly include Oprah Winfrey and Bill Clinton.
It will be just one in a number of festivals Winehouse plans to attend this summer, as she tries to bring attention back to her music.
