>> larry: right on time. we are back with hour two of "haiti: how you can help." check the bottom of the screen for ways to donate to the american red cross and the u.s. fund for unicef. it's been six days since the earthquake struck and the situation is likely going to get worse before it gets better. there are reports tonight of 150,000 deaths as the result of the quake. you can help, tweet and text with help. celebrities are on hand to talk to you from new york and here in los angeles. mick jagger's going to join us shortly. ringo starr, kobe bryant, jennifer lopez is here answering phones. with me right now in los angeles is ben stiller, the actor, director, and humanitarian. benicio del toro, the oscar-winning actor of last year, and garsel bu vai nylon, the hatian-american actress. her brother was visiting haiti when the earthquake struck.

but first, we are going to go back to our reporters in haiti. anderson cooper and dr. sanjay gupta. they will be with us to begin the first hour, they will be with us to begin the first hour. anderson, this goes on and on. what happened in the last hour? >> larry: well, the last hour, you know, there's no telling what sort of tragedies are occurring at night. you know, a lot of work is done during the day. at night, a lot of the aid workers go back to where they are staying. some try to -- are able to work all night. there's a lot of logistical planning that goes on at night. these streets kind of empty down. right now there are tens of thousands of hatians, if not more, sleeping in public parks, in open stadiums, anywhere they can. there are people playing music behind me. it's become almost a routine, but nothing about this should become routine, larry. it shouldn't be routine that little kids will die tonight that don't need to die, if they had some antibiotics. if there were enough doctors

that were able to treat them. they're turning away, they're triaging still. they're assessing who has the greatest need. who's not even going to make it and isn't even worth trying to save at this point. you know, there are still untold numbers of bodies out there trapped in the rubble. still untold number of people with families who have no idea what happened to their loved ones. every day, there is some mundane horror that just seems to go on and on. >> larry: and dr. gupta, you've told us often in the past week that you are first a doctor, then a reporter, and you were a doctor earlier today when you did brain surgery on a young lady. do you have that sense first when you come upon the scene. are you first a doctor?

>> reporter: i am a doctor first. >> larry: i'm sorry. we're having difficulty with the signal. we'll get back to you later, sanjay. let's talk to our three assembled guests here on the panel. we'll go to them in a little while, but let's do with them right now. ben, you're working on a film right now. you're very tied to haiti, aren't you? >> i just had the opportunity to go down there for the first time in july. and i was just sort of amazed at the culture and the vibrancy of the country in juxtaposition with its incredible poverty there. and i got to see some programs that save the children was doing. and we found a school that we wanted to work on expanding and making self-sustaining so that more kids could go there and learn. so we started this program to get the school going. >> larry: the hotel you stayed at was destroyed?

right? >> yeah. and one of the schools we visited in cite soleil was pretty much destroyed too. >> larry: sad. benicio, it's so good to meet you, finally have you on this program, and congratulations on your academy award. you're wearing a red cross button. >> yes. i was answering the phone upstairs and doing what we can. >> larry: how has this affected you? >> well, first of all, i was born in puerto rico, which is the caribbean. and second of all, i live in los angeles, so i've experienced big earthquakes. and the minute it came on the news, on cnn, i watched the show with you and ben. so i called ben and i said, ben, let me know how i can help. and ben just pointed the way here, to come and answer the phone for the american red cross and unicef. >> larry: so ben booked you? >> yeah, he did. >> and i don't really know

benicio that well, but i was really moved he called me out of the blue and said, what can i do to help. i've gotten a lot of that. i think everybody wants to do something, anything. >> larry: garsel, i understand you spoke with someone right before coming here? >> yeah, my cousins are okay. my aunt is still missing, but my cousins are okay and that's a really good thing. and i have to say, the outpouring from everyone has been absolutely amazing. and i got to speak to a few hatian callers and i we got to spoke in creole and i can't tell you how moved i am that everybody cares. it means a lot, because for so long, no one cared, for so long, no one knew us. and this really means a lot. so thank you. thank you. >> larry: i understand we can connect with dr. gupta again. i had asked, you doctor, when you come upon a scene, are you still first a doctor?

>> reporter: no question about it, larry. there's no confusion in my mind. i was surprised when some people had concerns about that, but i think, you know, putting on a press badge in no way is a bar to our humanity. and i think if someone needs your help and you can help, it's absolutely the right thing to do. i mean, i'm a doctor so i have a specific skill set as a neurosurgeon, but anybody who can help somebody, i think should. and this is a country that's dramatically in need. just over the last hour, there's been lots of patients that have come into this hospital. it is staying open, but there's only so much this one place can do. lots of hospitals like this, lots of doctors, lots of supplies are needed, larry. >> larry: do you see any light at the end of the tunnel yet? >> reporter: you know, it's interesting you ask that. i do see light at the end of the tunnel. in fact, there was a story just a short time ago where the doctors were actually visiting a child who had come in who was comatose and didn't think would survive and they came in and just were seeing a patient back

in this room behind me. the kid's up playing with his mom and there was just a great big smile that came over all the doctor's faces and the nurse's faces that were taking care of that child. but what's even more possibly the light at the end of the tunnel is that haiti last week, one week ago was terribly impoverished. had one of the worst physician to patient ratios in the world. could it be possible out of all of this, all the aid you're talking about, could haiti rise above what it was a week ago and become even better? that's what a lot of people are focused on. and it just means that you can't vent compassion over this week. it's got to be a long, sustained effort. >> larry: tea leone is up at our phone bank upstairs and she's with jennifer lopez. tea? >> hey, larry, i just wanted to relay -- i just got off the phone with francis, who is 91 years old, and she told me in

her 91 years, this is the worst disaster she's ever seen and she wanted to remind us all how much that we have. and it's interesting down here, we're getting calls also from kids who are calling because they want to help their peers in haiti. and there's something very dramatic about that, because their peers in haiti who have no communication, no television, and no way of knowing that we're here and that we see them. so it's pretty powerful that our kids are so interested in making these calls. i have jennifer lopez right here. jennifer, how's it going on the phone? >> it's amazing, actually. to see all the different area codes and everybody calling from all across the country. >> and it's not stopped, has it? >> no, it's not stop. excuse me. >> hello? oh, they hung up. oh, there they are again. >> larry: call in, there's no telling who you can talk to. you can talk to benicio, you can

talk to j.lo. i'm so pleased to tell you that from 8:00 this evening to 8:54, that's eastern time, the red cross and unicef have report $1.5 million in donations. $1.5 million in less than an hour. we've got a tweet suite here tonight. our celebrity guests will be responding to your messages on twitter. tweet to me at kingstings or use the hash tag cnnhelphaiti, all one word. mick jagger is next! don't go away.

>> larry: it's a great pleasure to welcome to this special edition of "larry king live" mick jagger, our grammy-winning rock 'n' roll legend. why is it important for you to be with us tonight, mick? >> well, you know, haiti is a -- obviously, it's one of the most poor countries in the western hemisphere. it's very closed to, you know, states, really. it's had a long relationship

with the country i've been involved with, the united states, france, and it's like a desperately poor place. and when these terrible disasters happen in a very poor place, the result is magnified over and over and over and over what it would be in a country that is more accessible with more infrastructure so on and so forth. this is a huge, massive disaster for one of the poorest, poorest countries and it's so poor, it's very hard to describe how poor it is compared to all the other countries in that hemisphere. >> larry: well, we're raising a lot of money for haiti tonight, and that's the number one thing, as you know, that they need. what have been your feelings as you watch this disaster? >> well, you know, an earthquake is, it's like the most incredibly physically damaging,

but it's also very psychologically damaging, because the ground beneath your feet, everything happeningi int you is destroyed in those moments and your whole psyche is upset. and then, of course, the tremendous physical damage, because the buildings are so poorly constructed, as typical in these kind of places. so the damage is so huge. but i think that one of the -- it's very gratifiediying to see much outpouring of help from every country, people giving money to people sending support groups. and i think that everyone -- there's been no, not one hint of any problem with people just wanting to send many un, want to help in every possible way they can. >> i know you've visited haiti

in years past. do you have fond memories of those visits? >> yeah, well, it's a beautiful country with very welcoming people, with fantastic culture with incredible dance and a strange history. and it's a unique country and it's just very, very sad when you see this happening somewhere you've been, where you've enjoyed, where people have been welcoming. so it's always very, very sad to see this. >> larry: mick jagger, by the way, a couple more moments with mick. he's coming to us via skype. what about the people. everyone i talk to, i haven't been to haiti, tells me how gracious and how wonderfully -- the wonderful aspects of these people, that they're different, they're just -- they accept what they have in life and they still have a spirit about them.

what's your impression of the hatians? >> well, you're right. they have a wonderful spirit. they have an amazing attitude to life. very vibrant culture, very vibrant cultural life in music, in dance, in poetry, carving, painting's amazing. to they have a very varied, very, very cultured life, but they've had terrible poverty they've endured for hundreds of years since the independence of haiti 200 years ago. they've had to endure terrible lifestyle mismanagement. so haiti could be the most terrible moment, but could also be a turning point where haiti would get all the help it needs to restructure its society, so they can take advantage of the wonderful hemoresouruman resour

they have. >> larry: anything you want to say to people about send in whatever they can send in or call in. >> well, the people have been wonderfully generous and they can text to these numbers. they can send a small donation, which makes lots of people send in small amounts of money and it's a huge sum in the end. they can text red cross, they can text haiti to the red cross number, which is 90999 or they can text on their phone to unicef and the text number to send that to is 20222. >> larry: mick, i thank you very much. you've been very generous to do this. you've helped a lot of people tonight, mick. >> thank you very much, larry. >> larry: as we go to break, here's mick jagger and haiti's own wyclef jean singing "hideaway" in honor of the people of haiti. >> recording with wyclef.

>> any other undergarments? >> larry: stop making those movies. i've had unusual panels in the history of "larry king live," but this foursome is different. jennifer lopez, ben stiller, benicio del toro and paula abdul. let's start with jennifer. >> yes? >> larry: what prompted you to come out to this? >> well, just like everybody else, i've been watching at it home with my family and incredibly moved and just saddened by everything you're seeing. there's something inside you that just says, you know, what can i do? you know, where can i use my energies. you know? and that's why. >> larry: ever been to haiti? >> i never have, no. >> larry: i imagine you might be going soon. >> maybe. >> larry: yeah. paula, what brought you here? >> the same thing. just the overwhelming despair

and families not knowing who's a live and not being able to even be accounted for. seeing all that is just -- >> larry: this is what people in entertainment can do. give their time and help people send in money. benicio, are you moved by this? >> of course, yeah. >> larry: to see all this tragedy. >> yeah. and also, probably also moved about how long the process to get it to become better is going to take. it's a long race in my opinion. >> larry: you've been there, ben. it's going to take a wihile. >> yeah. i think that's what's going to be the tough thing, a month, two month, six months down the line when people aren't doing specials on it, when the news cycles have moved on, the support their going to need and that's what we have to all work towards keeping attention. >> larry: that's the fear. when it's over with, you don't think of christmas anymore, but

their problems remain. >> exactly. and the whole idea is, like you said, is to keep it out there, to keep mentioning it, to keep the focus on making sure that in the months to come, everybody's still focused on what needs to be worked on. because there will be problems that even come up because of the disaster, because of the actual earthquake. >> larry: isn't it frustrating feeling, paula, when you watch people in despair? >> it's the most helpless feeling. there's so much you wish you could do, so much you wish you could just watch through the television screen, get there and be some help. but it's just so overwhelming. it is overwhelming. i think everyone feels this unbelievable feeling of like, what more can we do? i think it's just like, the fact that the worries of, is the money going to stop after a certain period of time. are people going to forget about it? i mean, it's rebuilding an entire? >> i think it's also an

possibility for -- mick jagger said, a moment in time where right now president clinton, a special envoy to haiti. he was already doing a lot of work, working with paul farmer, incredible, dr. paul farmer, partners in health. i think there's a chance here really to pay attention in a way that hasn't happened before. >> larry: okay. we're going to take a break and come back with more. her majesty, queen rania of jordan is known for her compassion and caring and her genuine concern for the people of the world. here she is with her greeting for you and the hatians we're all trying to help tonight. watch as we go to break and please, please call the numbers on your screen. we've got record-breaking figures coming in. keep it up. we'll be right back. >> nothing will ever be the same again for the people of haiti. our thoughts and prayers are with those whose lives have been shattered. jordan was not spared in the tragedy. three jordanian peacekeepers died along with countless others.

we cannot replace families. we cannot return loved ones, but we can provide bonds to ease the suffering of those left behind. the united nations foundation has committed $1 million for haiti's humanitarian needs. we ask you to support the u.n.'s fund for disasters. unicef too is working to rescue thousands of orphans and injured children. right now we need to heal their broken bodies. in the months ahead, we need to tend the wounds we cannot see by rekindling their spirits and getting them back into schools. the impact of the earthquake was devastated. but you can help lesson the aftershocks. please support the united nations foundation. please support unicef. opportuni. at the hartford, we help you pursue them with confidence. by preparing you for tomorrow. while protecting what you have today. you've counted on us for 200 years.

you emotionally, to see this? >> well, i've had a relationship with haiti since i first visited haiti in 1973. so it was really painful. the work that transafrica reform has been doing with haiti, particularly randall robertson, the hunger strike to restore democracy to haiti in the aristide presidency and the work that our present executive director does in nicole lee. we've had a very close relationship with haiti with regard to the issues around immigration, with regard to the issues around development and sustainable development. those have been conversations that we've had ongoing with transafrica forum. also, many groups. >> larry: yeah. obviously, very involved. pete wentz, how have you reacted to this tragedy?

>> interesting. i saw it on tv and i was thinking about how i was going to explain it to my son and more than anything, i think that it shows how the world can come together. and haiti's been one of the most poverty-stricken nations in our hemisphere for so long. and to take a disaster like this and to really put it on the map is kind of heartbreaking. but it's not important to only how we react in the first 72 hours, you know, it parties that we are creating an infrastructure and staying involved for the next years, you know, for years to come, to keep them, our neighbors and citizens of the globe, i guess, you know, hope and empowering themselves. >> larry: these folks are answering phones while we talk to them. we'll check back with sean diddy combs, because he's on the phones. what's this book, paula? >> this is the official michael

jackson opus. it's so heavy. it's pretty phenomenal, though. >> larry: opus, meaning? >> it's one of the most beautiful, the only one that exists, pleat and utter tribute to michael jackson every single word in here are original words that were created for the opus. the essays that are written are solely created for the opus. and the interviews that were done are from people who have worked, experienced working with michael jackson. >> larry: and you bring it tonight because? >> because we're going to donate this to raise money. >> larry: you're going to auction it off? >> auction it off, yes. >> larry: wow. >> and the artists that are here tonight have signed it. the pictures are treated, they're made to look like they're -- they're all original pictures. 80% of the pictures in this book haven't been seen before.

>> larry: so we can bid on this. i don't know how we're going to set up to do this. >> cnn.com/larryking. >> larry: okay, go to cnn.com/larryking. good thinking, paula. cnn.com/larryking and bid on this incredible book. let's go over to ryan at the tweet suite. >> a familiar scene, paula bailing us out. i know that scene well. good to see you again, paula. garcelle is with me now. she was up at the phone bank a minute ago and she was talking about the generosity from the callers you spoke with. >> it's been phenomenal. i had a woman who just had a knee reblame. she was in the hospital and she was calling to donate money. and she wishes she could get to haiti as soon as she could. i got one family that donated $2,500 to unicef and $2,500 to the red cross. and i also got to speak to hatian donors. and when hatians see each other

we say -- [ speaking foreign language ] >> there you go. it's been very nice to be able to see everyday people who want to help. it's awesome. >> reporte >> and you said you got some good news earlier? >> yes. we got good news, but it's never all good, because there are a lot of people that are desperate and in dire need of help. >> well, good luck. thank you, garcelle. larry, do we have a second to pop up here to the tweet suite. i've got mary simms up here. as you are giving money and seeing the stories, please tell us and let us know what you're thinking and where you are. a big question, when you donate the money, where does it go and how do you know it gets there to the right place. jared, you were telling me about a virtual house. >> yeah, through hope builders, you can actually donate and watch a house be built virtually. so it's really interesting and rewarding to actually know where

your money is going. and i've worked with organization before in the past and people can really get proactive and be part of the solution. >> you can actually see which part of the house you're building. >> so you can actually see what you are doing, what you're contributing to. larry, the trending topic on twitter right now, so people are involved. back to you over at the desk with the gang. >> larry: and we are running ov overstacked now, but we'll try to get in everybody. ringo starr has something to say on haiti. take his words to heart and take action. >> peace and love, everybody. you know peace and love is free, and we're here for haiti, so donations would be better. but let's do what we can do. send anything you like, big or small donations, we're not proud. peace and love, peace and love, peace and love. ♪ [ male announcer ] introducing the all-new lexus gx.

>> larry: since 8:00 tonight, get this, folks, the red cross and unicef have raised $2.9 million. that's from 8:00 eastern tonight. soledad o'brien is on the scene for us in port-au-prince tonight. let's check in with her now. and if you haven't already donated, maybe she can convince you to do it. soledad, what's the latest from there? >> reporter: larry, maybe these

babies can convince you to do it. look at them sleeping here. this is the back of a truck. 25 babies are here and it's become this makeshift nursenurs. across the way, another 100 plus other people. here's the problem. people are donating things like powdered milk, but infants can't drink milk, they have to drink formula, but they've run out of formula, so they're feeding the babies milk, so they get dehydrated and that gives them diarrhea. it's really, really critical. if you think of something to donate, formula is a good and important thing to get to everybody. and a big thank you for the folks who have been helping out with all their information and advice tonight. >> larry: we want to thank tamar han, the spokesperson for unicef. also there in port-au-prince, matt herric, an american red cross worker. these people have worked so hard past these six days.

there's matt, we salute him and salute tamar as well. when you call in tonight, you're contributing to the american red cross or to unicef. we thank you so much. and again, as we announced, $2.9 million have been reached since 8:00 eastern tonight. there you see our stars on the bank of phones answering your calls. we have ryan and the tweet suite set up and we'll be back with lots more to come. don't forget, seal is still to come. and so is kobe bryant. stay with us, because nicole richie, joe madden, and j.lo are next.

hello. i'm charles barkry. we just had a devastating earthquake in haiti. i'm asking, please, give anything you can to help the people of haiti. thank you very much. >> larry: thank you, charles. jennifer lopez is back with us in los angeles. nicole richie is here, supporter of unicef and a bark of unicef's

raising funds for water and sanitation product. and joe madden has stopped by, goodwill ambassador for unicef. his twin, benji, wanted to be with us tonight, couldn't make it. he'll be tweeting, urging help for haiti throughout the show. joe, how has this affected you? >> it's hard to watch, you look at a country with haiti and almost half the population is kids. to just think about, you know, what they've already been through, what haiti's already been through, but what the possibility of what now they're looking at for the future is -- that's why i think something like this is really important, trying to stop that second wave disaster of what could happen in the next couple of weeks. >> larry: because you know it's coming. >> right. >> larry: j.lo, is it hard for you to watch? >> absolutely. a lot of it is watching the children. when you finally have your own children and you feel what it must feel like for everybody out there, it's just -- it's daunting. all of it, it just feels so

huge. and you want to do anything or everything you can and just urge everybody else to do the same. >> larry: nicole, what is t.a.p.. >> t.a.p. brings clean water to places like haiti and right now clean water is the number one thing that they need. >> larry: how'd you get involved? >> i got involved through unicef, actually, and joel is the head of it. >> larry: you're involved with t.a.p. too? >> i was the spokesperson for the t.a.p. project and a goodwill ambassador for unicef. so i go on field visits and to locations that need clean water so i can come back and talk about it. i was on the show, actually, talking about t.a.p. projects. so that's -- with haiti right now, clean water is key. that's what they need is clean water. >> larry: does t.a.p. stand for something? >> well, the t.a.p. project originally, that word is the website with unicef, but it's the idea that once a year in world water week, we can donate

money to restaurants for a glass of tap water. >> larry: oh, i get it. tap water. ah, that makes sense. >> because we can drink clean tap water in our country. places like haiti, they don't have clean water access. >> larry: has this been hard for you to watch, nicole? >> it's been so tragic and it just feels so big and overwhelming, but it's nice to see everyone come together and really do everything that they can. it's actually, it's a very warm feeling, especially being here and seeing everyone come together and want to help, it's just, it's -- gives me a lot of hope. >> larry: don't you find the little children the hardest to watch. >> oh, my gosh. really, there was one image that came out in the first few days of, i don't know if it was his daughter, but of a man carrying this little girl, and in the back of my mind, all the time. and they've been using it, you know, periodically, and it's just -- it just, literally, it

breaks my heart every time i see it. just to see her there, helpless in his arms, seeing him helpless to help her and to know where to go. it's a lot. it's a lot to watch, but it's good that we get to see it, because we need to do -- we need to do something. everybody needs to do something. and it's great. like she said, that everybody pulls together to help in moments like this. upstairs, answering the phones, that's what i loved about it. i said i was having a great time, and what i meant, it was so great to see how many people from all over the country were calling in and doing what they could. >> larry: can't imagine how fortunate we are, right? >> i count my blessings every day. >> larry: you think about it and see something like this, joel. >> you know, i was thinking about what they were saying, and with unicef, they've been on the ground in haiti for over 40 years. so they know what to do and they know how to handle a situation like this. it's just about us helping them.

so i think it's hard to watch, but at the same time, the response time that everyone's had in this disaster has been great. and i think it's a real sign of hope. so i'm kind of hopeful. >> larry: isn't this impressive tonight, the kind of money that's poured in. >> it's amazing. really, it's amazing. when you think of when we do charity events, i work with different charities in trying to raise money and to think that that much money was raised in an hour, it just shows you how big hearted people are, again, taking you back to, wow, you know, this is -- we actually are around so many beautiful people. it's a great thing. it's a beautiful thing. it says a lot about all of us. >> larry: and the whole world kicks in for something like this. because they're all our brothers, right, supposedly? >> i think especially now in 2010, watching the network of people and how fast everyone got together and how fast we started

sharing information, to me, like i said, it's hopeful. so we just have to -- i think if we -- if everyone pulls together and everyone has a hopeful attitude, i think that we can really make a difference and i think that everyone that's involved in this, in the world watching and the world wants to be involve, we're all that haiti has. so we really have to. >> larry: we are the world. you going over there soon? >> yeah. hopefully. i'm hoping once this, you know -- once the cameras leave, because there will be a time when the cameras kind of go away, we have to kind of go back and continue the work there. >> larry: we're going to hear from kobe bryant next. and sean combs is with us. and seal's live performance is around the corner. call 1-800-4-unicef or 1-800-help-now. you're looking at the phone banks in new york and they want to hear from you. let's help haiti. we'll be right back. i have asthma.

and when my symptoms-the coughing, wheezing, tightness in my chest came back- i knew i had to see my doctor. he told me i had choices in controller medicines. we chose symbicort. symbicort starts to improve my lung function within 15 minutes. that's important to me because i know the two medicines in symbicort are beginning to treat my symptoms and helping me take control of my asthma. and that makes symbicort a good choice for me. symbicort will not replace a rescue inhaler

for sudden symptoms. and should not be taken more than twice a day. symbicort contains formoterol. medicines like formoterol may increase the chance of asthma-related death. so, it is not for people whose asthma is well controlled on other asthma medicines. see your doctor if your asthma does not improve or gets worse. i know symbicort won't replace a rescue inhaler. within 15 minutes symbicort starts to improve my lung function and begins to treat my symptoms. that makes symbicort a good choice for me. you have choices. ask your doctor if symbicort is right for you. (announcer) if you cannot afford your medication, astrazeneca may be able to help. >> larry: before we check in, back to new york, we want to say thanks to jennifer lopez for coming out tonight. i know she has to go, but thank you so much. >> thank you guys. and again, everybody just keep doing everything you can. every little bit helps. and that's it. >> larry: you must feel good when you do something like this, don't you? >> you know, it's always rewarding to be involved in an

effort that's going to help somebody. >> larry: you always do good when you help somebody else. >> that's right. >> larry: thanks so much. >> thank you. >> larry: we're going to go up to new york now and check in with sean combs. he's in new york, doing his part. we didn't get a chance to talk to him earlier. of course, he was on the phone. >> yes. >> larry: sean, this must be pretty tough for you to handle, isn't it? to see all this? >> yeah. it's definitely something that weighs so heavy on your heart. but there's also something that's so beautiful, coming out of this, the way our people, the way we as a people are coming together in this time of tragedy, when people from all over the world. haiti for me is such an inspirational country. they were the first people to take back their freedom. the first people to say that we will not be slaves anymore, so growing up the hatian people to me were always the people that i looked up to because of their fight, the way they fought for their freedom. and just living in miami, i live in miami. and if you've ever met somebody that's hatian, they have so much

love in their hearts. they don't, like, just shake your hand, day give you a hug, they give you a kiss. they're such a loving people. and, you know, to see this is just heart wrempnching and heartbreaking, but what's been going on today with cnn and unicef and wyclef's organization, wele, i think he should run for president of this. what he's done is truly commendable. >> larry: sean, i understand that someone's going to give $1,000 for your sunglasses. >> yes, i'm trying to run more money and i heard that the young man, the man that donated $1,000 for your suspenders, jeffrey schwartz, i got him to donate $1,000 for my shades, larry. you know i'm always wearing shades, so i sold him my shades and an autographed picture for $1,000. whatever it takes, we're going to raise as much money as we can. >> larry: unicef wants you to

know what your money is buying for the people of haiti. pete wentz rejoins us. he's with a tent that unicef has set up on "larry king live's" new york set. >> hey, larry. >> larry: pete, take us through some of the details here. what is this all about? >> people want to see actually some of the solutions. if we go inside the unicef tent that is actually down there right now, you can see that the problem is solvable. for example, you have these tablets that one of these costs 1 cent and it can keep five liters of water clean. so one cent for five liters of water. you have a blanket that costs $3. just $3 for this blanket. if you come over here, there's actually a cooler for vaccines that unicef workers carry on them at all times, because

following, obviously, devastation like this, keeping kids vaccinated is very is ver important. something that's interesting for people to see is for 200 bucks you can get this. it's a school in a box, which is actually so kids can keep learning and empowering themselves and staying involved. obviously, you get blackboard paint and are able to stay involved. and this tent can be -- is utilitarian. it can be used for school purposes or for medical purposes or for kids to do recreational things in. because if you think about it, you know, six months from now you want your kids psychologically happy. so you want them, you know -- you've got a $3 soccer ball, and you want kids playing, kicking it around and doing that kind of stuff. as well, you know, we have food. high-protein biscuits. formula for infants that is specifically designed for

infants that are malnourished or mothers that are malnourished. and it's all very cheap. and this is a solvable problem. and that's what i wanted to kind of put out there, is that every cent counts. when it comes down to it, that's what i meant with this tablet for the water. is that if you even donate a cent to this cause you are donating. >> larry: wow. pete, i salute you. that's amazing, to see that tent in operation the way it's set up. tents like that in haiti helping people. we go back to sean combs. i understand we got another donation, sean? what happened? >> yes, larry, i'm here. i'm really working these phones, larry, there's something about your suspenders that the people want. i have a dr. boon from trumble, connecticut, he just put up $2,000 for a pair of suspenders. so larry, i have an idea. we're going to sell your suspenders for $5,000 a pair. okay? you call us up here. larry's going to sell his suspenders for $5,000 a pair.

but we've only got four pair of those. then the next pair go for $10,000. how about that, larry? >> larry: sean, you're a man after my own heart. i'd like to bring them from home tomorrow. i've got one pair i have to give here tonight. and then i'll bring them all in tomorrow. >> that's right. but we have dr. boom, thank you very much, from trumble, connecticut p. we are raising money. everybody, you might not get some suspenders, but just call up unicef. call up 1-800-4-unicef right now. donate anything. we'll take anything for the people of haiti. haiti, we love you. >> larry: sean, for the next night we do anything to raise money, you're the host. >> yeah, let's go. >> larry: we've got a few ambassadors with us tonight. and kobe bryant certainly falls into that category. he does so much through sports to bring people together. the nba and the players union donating $1 million to haitian relief efforts. here's what l.a. laker kobe bryant has to say about haiti and how you can help.

>> hey, larry. i just wanted to say it's wonderful what you're doing tonight. we're truly blessed to be able to have this platform to be able to spread the message of helping, of assisting. and obviously, the tragedy in haiti goes without saying. and it's important for all of us to contribute, to do whatever we can to help. and to lend a helping hand. tomorrow's not promised to anyone. and everybody must do whatever they can to help. no matter how big or how small the contribution. please join in and do whatever you can. rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

>> larry: i want to thank nicole richie and joel madden for being with us. you're going to join us for our big finale. we're all going to be on set. since the start of our show almost two hours ago unicef and the red cross have received almost $5 million. it'll help those babies in haiti that you've been looking at live. we can get to 5 million. come on. we're almost there. let's make the last push and help the babies and their parents. we want to thank you for your interest and your support. don't forget the disaster in haiti is going to have repercussions for years.

also, the phones are going to stay open. right through anderson cooper and right through the two-hour repeat of this show at midnight. so till 2:00 a.m. eastern time, 11:00 p.m. pacific, the phones will remain open. we're this close to 5 million. here's seal to get everybody ready. ♪ ♪ oh, whoa, yeah ♪ my, my, my, my, my ♪ yeah ♪ people get ready ♪ there's a train a-coming ♪ you don't need no baggage ♪ you just get on board ♪ all you need is faith to hear the diesels humming ♪ ♪ you don't need no ticket ♪ you just thank the lord
