A host of high-profile stars are expected to sign up for the Live 8 follow-up concert in Scotland.

Bono and Robbie Williams have been approached to play at the gig on July 6, while John Travolta, George Clooney and Brad Pitt have also been asked to take part.

Acts such as Sugababes, Snow Patrol, Travis, Annie Lennox, Daniel and Natasha Bedingfield, the Proclaimers, Wet, Wet, Wet, Texas, McFly and Ronan Keating have already been confirmed.

Midge Ure, who is organising the Scottish concert, told The Mirror, "Edinburgh is going to be the focal point of everything. The eyes of the world will be upon it. In Scotland that day we will hold eight men to account. We care about the 30,000 people who die on their watch every day."
