Karol G and Bokelli, a duo before 100,000 people in the Vatican

The Plaza de San Pedro del Vaticano has hosted the first pop macroconciente in its history. Thus, 100,000 people have been able to witness the actions of Karol G, Andrea Bocelli, Pharrell Williams and John Legend free of charge thanks to the world encounter on human fraternity.

The concert ‘Grace for the World’ was held yesterday in the Vatican, gathering some of the most important artists in the world. Karol G was the clear star of the night, interpreting ‘while I heal from the Cora’ and a felt ‘alive for her’ duo with Andrea Bocelli himself. The Italian also also recruited Teddy Swims to inaugurate the event with ‘Amazing Grace’.

John Legend sang ‘Glory’ and ‘Bridge Over Troubled Water’ to the piano and, since the event was about goodness and human fraternity, Pharrell Williams did not have to investigate much in his repertoire to find the perfect song. ‘Happy’, of course. The American also invited in his speech to enlighten the world with “light” and “love.”

Jennifer Hudson and Angélique Kidjo, among other artists, were also present in a show that had more than 3000 drones. These filled the sky with images inspired by the frescoes of the Sistine Chapel and even honored the late Pope Francis, projecting his face on the Vatican.
