More Information from WWE.com:

Five-time Grammy-winner and multi-platinum singer, songwriter and performer John Legend will perform "America the Beautiful" live at this year's bash in Orlando, Fla. on Sunday, March 30. Snoop Dogg will also be on hand as Celebrity Ring Announcer for a "BunnyMania" match with Playboy cover girls Candice MichelleTM and MariaTM squaring off against the GlamazonTM Beth PhoenixTM and Melina.

Also confirmed is popular actress/musician Raven-Symoné, who will be a part of the WWE's biggest wish-granting event ever, hosting the Bacon, Bagels and Biceps brunch and accompanying more than 50 Make-A-Wish children at WrestleMania XXIV. Rounding out the extravaganza, Red Hot Chili Peppers will lend their hit single "Snow (Hey Oh)" as the theme song this year.

John Legend's albums -- "Get Lifted" and "Once Again" -- have secured his place as one of the most striking, vital and important American musical artists to emerge in the 21st century. Legend originally gained notoriety as an in-demand all-star studio session writer and musician whose credits included work with Lauryn Hill, Black Eyed Peas, Alicia Keys, Common and Kanye West, among others

Calvin "Snoop Dogg" Broadus is a rare exception in the turbulent world of Hip-Hop, managing to stay tremendously relevant throughout his 16-plus years in the game. From music to movies, video games to clothing lines and now his own hit TV show (E!'s reality series Snoop Dogg's Father Hood), Snoop Dogg is an all-out pop culture icon and household name.

Raven-Symoné is well known as the star of "That's So Raven," "The Cheetah Girls" series and "The Cosby Show" as well as the Dr. Dolittle film series. Raven is starring in and executive producing the upcoming film "College Road Trip," which will be released on March 7 by Walt Disney Pictures and co-stars Martin Lawrence. Her fourth album - titled Raven-Symoné - will be released on April 29, 2008.(SOURCE)
