As a part of Global Citizen's 'One World: Together At Home' broadcast for coronavirus relief, Lady Gaga, Celine Dion, Andrea Bocelli, John Legend, and pianist Lang Lang came together to perform "The Prayer." This song was the closing number for the virtual performance that was streamed Saturday, April 18th.
"The Prayer" was originally performed by Celine Dion and Andrea Bocelli back in 1999, but Lady Gaga, John Legend, and Lang Lang have decided to add a fresh twist to this classic for the 'Together At Home' broadcast.
The celebrities all abided by social distancing guidelines by performing via webstream from the comfort of their own homes. Everyone wore all back, except for Dion, who caught viewers' eyes in a blue suit.

Celebrities in attendance included Beyoncé, Taylor Swift, Jennifer Lopez, former first ladies Michelle Obama and Laura Bush, Oprah Winfrey, Priyanka Chopra Jones, Sarah Jessica Parker, Kerry Washington, and many others.
Lady Gaga also took to her Twitter and Instagram to share updates as she watched the event from home and cheered on other performers. She posted an Instagram shoutout to her fellow fundraisers that included her boyfriend, Michael Polansky.
