Lady Gaga Hosts The "One World:Together At Home" Concert.

Talented singer Lady Gaga kicked off Saturday night's "One World: Together At Home" livestream concert an event she helped organised by praising medical workers that are putting their lives at risk for us to live. The event featured a lineup of performance.

Lady Gaga kicked off the concert with a piano rendition of “Smile,” popularized by Nat King Cole. Like many of the artists who were part of the special show, Gaga allowed the music to be the focal point.

The Grammy award winning artist collaborated with Global Citizen and World Health Organization to plan the event, which featured more than 70 celebrities and singers and was aimed at "celebrating" health care and essential workers on the front lines of the coronavirus pandemic.

The concert which was recorded from their various homes raised approximately $128 million to support the fight against Covid-19. And about $72.8 million of it to local and regional responders.

Before her Saturday's performance, she said; "Today I'm so happy that we are one world, together at home. I feel very honored to be a part of the World Health Organization and Global Citizen in the fight against COVID-19 and raising money for the Solidarity Response Fund,"

"I care so much about all of the medical workers that are putting their lives at risk for us right now. I think of them every day, I pray for them every day, and I'm also thinking of all of you that are at home, who are wondering when this is all going to be different." She continued.

"What I'd like to do for you tonight, if I can, is just give you the permission to, for a moment...smile," before starting the song.

Other musicians who also performed on saturday included; Billie Eilish, Elton John, Lizzo, Keith Urban, Taylor Swift and Paul McCartney, all recorded in their homes around the world.

Gaga also bought the show to a close by joining John Legend, Celine Dion, Andrea Bocelli and pianist Lang Lang to perform "The Prayer," the 1999 hit by Dion and Bocelli.
