[ why couldn't Beyonce come up with that idea first ]


Singer Macy Gray has promised to perform naked to raise money for charity.

The outrageous star says she will appear in nothing but a pair of Jimmy Choo heels at her London gig on Monday.

She will reveal all to raise cash for the Elton John Aids Foundation.

"Never before has a major artist gone so far in aid of a good cause," a spokesman for the singer said.

"Macy was invited to be part of a celebrity auction in which photographs of stars wearing Jimmy Choo shoes will go under the hammer.

"She wanted to do something special for it so decided that in her photograph she would be naked on stage. It is a very sexy statement."

The gig will take place at The Coronet in Elephant and Castle, south London - her first UK gig in two years.

The intimate venue played host to Justin Timberlake last year.
