Alicia Keys helps 'Save The Music...'
Spears and help
Britney vs Cher, Rod and Alicia

Britney hits back at co-star Cher

Britney Spears has hit back at pop legend Cher after the veteran singer branded her a "ho" - despite the fact the pair will star together in forthcoming movie 'In The Pink'.

Spears was reportedly left fuming when the 'Belive' [or not?] singer criticised her in front of 20,000 fans at a gig in Auckland, New Zealand, during the Australasian leg of her farewell tour.

Cher famously said, "I'm not going to give up show business, but there are new girls coming up like Britney and J.Lo."

But when the crowd booed, the superstar turned on her contemporaries, snapping "I know. They are hoes, aren't they?"

According to British newspaper the Daily Sport, the 'Toxic' beauty told friends, "I wanna know just who's the ho, Cher?"

A close friend confides, "This remark by Cher has been very upsetting to Britney because she always looked up to and admired Cher. Now she feels she's been stabbed in the back. She told me, 'Before she starts calling anyone a ho, Cher should take a look in the mirror.'"

Relations between Spears and Cher first became strained when Cher pulled out of a duet with the 23-year-old at the last minute three years ago (2002).

Alicia and Rod ‘Save The Music…’

Alicia Keys and Rod Stewart have been added to VH1's 'Save The Music: A Concert to Benefit the Save The Music Foundation'.

Stewart and Keys will join Rob Thomas, Joss Stone, Queen Latifah and John Legend at the event to raise money to help restore musical instruments for American schools and students.

'Save The Music', which was created in 1997, has so far raised more than $30 million.

Nearly 1200 schools in 80 cities and 500,000 children have benefited from the project.

The concert will be held on 17 April at New York City's Beacon Theater.
