VH1's Save The Music Coveted Gift Bags


(CelebrityAccess MediaWire) —

One of the perks of being a star are the coveted gift bags they receive for being part of an awards show or special benefit. Alicia Keys, Rod Stewart, Mariah Carey, Rob Thomas, Donna Summer, John Legend, Joss Stone, Josh Groban and Robert Randolph are among those who received such gift bags for participating in 'Save The Music: A Concert To Benefit The VH1 Save The Music Foundation' on April 11 at The Beacon Theatre in New York. The concert will be broadcast on VH1 on April 17th at 9:00 PM (ET/PT).

Each star will take home in their gift bags:

* A gift certificate for a new pair of 575 Denim jeans

* The new Dell Pocket DJ, which holds 2,500 songs in a package measuring just 3.5 x 2.1 x .5 inches and weighing 4.4 ounces. The 1.62 inch (diagonal) LCD with blue backlight displays the full menu without scrolling. The Pocket DJ provides up to 10 hours on a single battery charge
