As the coronavirus continues to halt all gatherings of any kind, celebrities have been finding ways to stay connected with their fans and audiences while staying at home. Oscar-winning singer and actress Lady Gaga is next on this list of artists providing the public some necessary entertainment during this time of crisis.

The musician announced on Monday that she will be partnering with the World Health Organization and Global Citizen to curate a televised, star-studded concert amidst the pandemic. She also disclosed that over the past week she has helped raise million from several global companies to aid the organization’s COVID-19 Solidarity Response Fund.

The concert, titled “One World: Together At Home,” will be hosted by Jimmy Kimmel, Jimmy Fallon, and Stephen Colbert and feature varied performances from Elton John, Billie Eilish, Lizzo, Chris Martin, Paul McCartney, Stevie Wonder, John Legend, Maluma, Gaga herself, and more.

The virtual performance will be a space to raise spirits and foster togetherness, and will not be presented as fundraiser. Instead, Lady Gaga stated the concert will, “tell the stories of and celebrate the frontline communities, health-care workers, and their acts of kindness.”

“One World: Together At Home” is set to air on April 18,2020 at 8 p.m. on ABC, NBC, CBS and other international broadcasters.
