Melanie C: Rhys Jones Concert Interview

Last month Melanie took part in a special concert that was dedicated to the memory of a 13 year old boy named Rhys Jones who was murdered at gunpoint in Liverpool last summer while walking home from football practice.

The concert, which took place at the Echo Arena in Liverpool (Melanie's hometown), featured well known british entertainers like Melanie, band Eaton Road, former Atomic Kitten star Natasha Hamilton, and comic Jimmy Tarbuck, as well as local entertainment from Rhys' community.

The concert served as a loving tribute to Rhys and also raised money for the Liverpool Unites campaign which is raising money for the Rhys Jones Memorial Fund who aim to open a community centre in honor of Rhys.

Watch Mel discuss what the event means for her and also the lads from Eaton Road.
