NEW YORK, NY (NBA) - Worldwide superstar Andrea Bocelli will highlight NBA Cares, the league's global community outreach initiative, before a worldwide audience with his special performance of "Because We Believe," from his new CD, Amore, during NBA All-Star Saturday Night presented by AOL at the Toyota Center in Houston on Feb. 18 (8:00 p.m. ET, TNT).

Prior to Bocelli taking the stage, two 2006 NBA All-Star players will introduce the world-renown singer. NBA Cares-themed video and imagery featuring NBA players working in communities around the world will be thread into the international superstar's performance.

Bocelli's latest album Amore produced by David Foster and Humberto Gatica, and co-produced by Tony Renis, was released in the United States on Jan. 31, 2006. The CD has resulted in Bocelli's highest chart debut ever, garnering the number three position on Billboard's Top 200 Album Chart, and the number one position on the Classical Crossover Chart. The collection boasts an extraordinary lineup of international love songs and pop standards performed in French, Italian, Spanish and English, with guest artists Christina Aguilera, Stevie Wonder and Kenny G.
