Ringo Starr has also lent his support to the Hard Rock Cafe's "Imagine There's No Hunger" campaign. Ringo told USA Today's Edna Gunderson, "You get so many invites every day to do stuff," he says. "When I read the statistics of this, it just blew me away. So I thought, 'why not? How hard is it to do something?'"
