Ellie Goulding Dares Prince Harry To Ice Bucket Challenge

Singer Ellie Goulding has taken the ice cube challenge charity to a whole new level by daring British royal Prince Harry to participate.

The "Lights" hitmaker has a connection to the heir after singing at the wedding of his brother Prince William to Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, in 2011, and hopes to convince him to join celebrities from around the world that have step for the ALS Association.

Goulding reveals his manager rejected the challenge after his nomination, so called Prince Harry to take his place.



In a post on Twitter.com, he writes, "So my manager will not make ice challenge (but donate) so renominate Prince Harry. Who told me enough peer pressure ..."

The challenge is to raise funds to fight ALS, also known as motor neuron disease and Lou Gehrig's disease. Harry has a personal connection to the cause and his aunt, Anne, Princess Royal, is a pattern of association of motor neuron disease in Britain.

Stars including Gwyneth Paltrow, Lindsay Lohan, Tom Cruise, Justin Bieber and Lady Gaga all have sprayed themselves in ice water in recent days to raise money for charity.
