The event put on by the international advocacy organization Global Citizen together with the World Health Organization and superstar Lady Gaga intends to "provide a moment of global unity in the fight to end Covid-19," said its CEO Hugh Evans.
Lady Gaga announced "One World Together at Home" last week which now includes some of the biggest celebrities in the world, including Celine Dion, Billie Eilish, John Legend, Elton John, Paul McCartney, Chris Martin, Andrea Bocelli and Michael Buble.
Billie Eilish, Mariah Carey, Alicia Keys, and Dave Grohl opened their doors — literally — as the musicians performed from their homes for an hour-long benefit concert to raise money for those affected by the coronavirus crisis.
Diversity, though, was the biggest winner when a black filmmaker won his first competitive Oscar, a superhero blockbuster set in Africa scored big, and two black actors and an Egyptian first-generation American won three of the four acting prizes.
