Lady Gaga isn't the only celebrity to make a major contribution towards Hurricane Sandy relief efforts.

Justin Bieber and Rihanna are also stepping up with major donations that will go directly towards hurricane victims in NYC and New Jersey. Justin is teaming up with charity Pencils of Promise to donate a dollar to relief efforts for every ticket sold at his two shows in Madison Square Garden, show in New Jersey and show in Brooklyn. Since all four concerts already sold out, that means he'll be writing a check for $79,000! "We decided that for the Jersey, Brooklyn, and 2 MSG shows every ticket sold a dollar will be donated to Hurricane Sandy Relief #GIVEBACK." he tweeted. "And all 4 shows are SOLD OUT so U are all helping us make a difference in the lives of those that need it right now."

Lady Gaga is providing some serious monetary help to all her little monsters that were rocked by Hurricane Sandy last week.

The singer is making a $1 million donation to the American Red Cross relief efforts for the more than 4,000 people in NYC and surrounding areas without homes due to the hurricane. "If it wasn't for NYC: the Lower Eastside, Harlem, the Bronx and Brooklyn, I would not be the woman or artist that I am today,"said Gaga on her blog. "Please accept this gift on behalf of myself, my parents Joe and Cynthia, and my sister Natali; with our deepest gratitude New York for raising us. Thank you for helping me build my spirit. I will now help you rebuild yours. Sincerely, Lady Gaga and The Germanottas"
