Ben Affleck, Chrissy Teigen, David Letterman, Gayle King, Jimmy Kimmel, Nomzamo Mbatha, Sean Penn, and Olivia Munn will make an appearance at the concert.

Other heads of state will also be joining the concert to encourage their citizens and everyone around the world to be open about getting their COVID-19 vaccine. President Macron of France, Prime Minister Trudeau of Canada, and Prime Minister Plenković of Croatia will also be making appearances.

    When did they get their Public Heath PhD.'s?

    Pity their concern for people's health didn't stretch to consider Harry's dying grandfather! Clearly a nasty media interview was far more important. Which has me thinking what's really important to them here, the health of strangers or another opportunity to get some of that celebrity and media attention? So much for them wanting a private life. After what they said during that interview with his grandfather critically ill, they are never now going to be able to convince me they genuinely care about anyone but themselves. They have tried upstaging the Queen, now it's the President and Vice Presidents turn. They should just leave these important issues to the intelligent professionals. You know they will try and make this all about them whilst pretending to care and be charitable.

    If Mr & Mrs Insipid didn't chair this event, I just may not have signed up for my vaccine.

    The only TV show That Woman could possibly qualify for is a Sit-com playing Betty White and Angela Landsbury's Mother in a "FRIENDS and GOLDEN GIRLS" type of plot line.
    Good grief. Always mugging for the camera.
