RIHANNA is set to perform on President-elect BARACK OBAMA's inauguration night in aid of a hunger-relief charity.

The Umbrella hitmaker will play for the Recording Industry Association
of America's Presidential Inauguration Charity Ball, to benefit Feeding
America.

Vicki Escarra, president and CEO of Feeding America tells People.com,
"We could not be happier that Rihanna will be performing at the
Inauguration charity ball to benefit Feeding America.

"Rihanna's involvement will help raise awareness about the prevalence
of hunger in America and help bring more aid to the 36 million
Americans who do not always know where they will find their next meal."

The Barbados beauty isn't the only one performing for a charitable
cause on inauguration night - Sting will rock at the Creative Coalition
ball and Kanye West is said to be in talks to perform for the Impact
Film Fund.
