     *Will Smith and his wife Jada Pinkett Smith will serve as co-hosts for this year's Nobel Peace Prize Concert in Oslo, Norway, which will take place on Dec. 11, organizers announced Wednesday.      

       The concert, which comes the day after Nobel prizes are given out, will feature performances by Wyclef Jean, Toby Keith, Donna Summer, Puerto Rican singer Luis Fonsi as well as Amadou & Mariam, a blues and jazz duet from Mali.      

       "The opportunity to recognize the laureate's contributions to the world peace movement will be an awe-inspiring experience," the Smiths said in a joint statement. "We are both humbled and honored to take part in the Nobel Peace Prize Concert this year."      

       The winner of the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize is to be announced in Oslo on Oct. 9. The award is always handed out Dec. 10, the anniversary of prize founder Alfred Nobel's death in 1896.
