The event, which was broadcast live on American television channel Fox on Sunday evening, has raised more than a million dollars. This is what American media report. The Procter & Gamble and Fox company both made a $ 500,000 donation. Many viewers also donated an amount, but how much was not disclosed exactly. The donation goes to two institutions that fight against the outbreak of the lung virus. Elton presented the living room concert and sang Don’t let The Sun Go Down On Me and also a small piece of Lizzo’s hit Juice. Artists such as Billie Eilish, Dave Grohl, Mariah Carey and Alicia Keys also participated. All five of the Backstreet Boys sang their hit I Want It That Way from a different location. The singer announced Monday after the broadcast that he thought it was very special. “Thank you to everyone who watched and donated and to all the great artists who participated.”
