Actor Kevin Spacey is to replace Tommy Lee Jones as host of the Nobel Peace Prize concert next week, organisers have announced.
Spacey will now co-host the concert with actress Uma Thurman in honour of recipients Al Gore and the UN's climate change panel.
Jones, who was former US vice-president Gore's roommate at Harvard University, pulled out "for personal reasons".
Kylie Minogue, Alicia Keys and Annie Lennox are due to perform at the show.
The concert will be held in Oslo, Norway, on 11 December - the day after the Nobel Peace Prize ceremony.
Also on the bill are KT Tunstall, Earth Wind & Fire, A-ha singer Morten Harket and Junoon, one of Pakistan's most popular rock bands.
Gore - whose global warming film An Inconvenient Truth won the Oscar for best documentary - is being honoured along with the panel for their efforts to increase knowledge about man-made climate change.
The annual Nobel Peace Prize concert is broadcast to more than 100 countries.
