Lady Gaga, Pauly D remember September 11 in new video (Reuters)

LOS ANGELES (TheWrap.com) – As the 10th anniversary of the September 11 terror attacks approaches, the question undoubtedly on some people's minds has finally been answered: What was Lady Gaga doing on that fateful day, and what was her reaction?

The "You and I" singer has banded together with fellow celebrities Pauly D, Nas, Drake Bell, Fran Drescher and Julianne Hough to discuss what she was doing on September 11 -- and to inspire others to commemorate the anniversary by doing good for others.

"We were in a state of disbelief," Gaga recalls of the events that day. "We all watched the second tower fall together," presumably talking about herself and friends she was with at the time.

Jersey Shore guido Pauly D recalls experiencing "a sense of helplessness."

The video, produced by Viacom, is a promotion for the 9/11 Day of Service and Remembrance, which is being organized by MyGoodDeed and HandsOn Network.

Fab Four cover band to leave Broadway in September (AP)

NEW YORK – It's time to say goodbye to the Fab Four cover band on Broadway after a long and winding road.

"Rain: A Tribute to the Beatles on Broadway" will play its final performance Sept. 4 at the Brooks Atkinson Theatre.

The show is an extended Beatles concert with near-perfect reproductions of "Hard Day's Night," "Yesterday," "Eleanor Rigby" and "Strawberry Fields," among many others.

Originally intended as a 13-week stand, the show opened at the Neil Simon Theatre in October, recouped its $2 million investment in seven weeks, extended and moved into the smaller Brooks Atkinson in February.

But it has been struggling at the box office. Last week, it took in $263,000 from a potential $904,000.

A U.S. tour is under way.
