London, Jan 18 (ANI): Penelope Cruz may have attended the Golden Globe Awards but the Haiti tragedy was the only thing on her mind during the event.
The Spanish actress, who was at the awards show supporting her musical Nine and Spanish-language film Broken Embraces, revealed that writer/director Paul Haggis, member of charity organisation Artists for Peace and Justice, changed his Globe plans at the last minute and instead went to Haiti to help relief workers.
"We are very lucky to be here, celebrating cinema... but it's impossible to think about anything else than the terrible disaster that is going on in Haiti," the Daily Express quoted her telling the E! channel on the red carpet.
"Our dear friend Paul Haggis... is on his way there now... He has an organisation and he has been working for that country for many years and I encourage people to look at the website, Artists for Peace and Justice, much to the and to do whatever they can because everything counts, everything will make a difference to somebody else's life.
"We are here and we have the obligation and the responsibility to talk about it and to do something tonight. Tonight cannot be just about the movies," she added. (ANI)
