Superstars Jamie Foxx and Ludacris have partnered up with the “I Know” social media effort in order to help promote youth knowing their HIV statuses and getting tested. As a new element of CDC’s (Center For Disease Control) Act Against AIDS campaign, “I Know” will get the facts about HIV/AIDS out far and wide to this hard-hit population through social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, a new Web site, and text messages aimed at sparking conversation. Jamie and Luda are among the celebrities who will use their Facebook pages and Twitter accounts to promote the cause.

I’m excited to see these young men speaking on safe sex. Especially since much of their music and persona’s focus on bagging as many girls as possible. It only makes sense that they promote safe sex while promoting sex like so many other artists. Good job.
