Decidedly less star-studded than the original Lionel Richie is remaking ‘We Are The World’ with former American Idol contestants in place of the original’s all-star line-up.

The song was written by Richie and Michael Jackson and released in 1985, with proceeds going to the United Support Of Artists For Africa (USA For Africa) non-profit.

The organisation works to “help ease the pain of poverty in Africa and the United States”. In March, Richie suggested a third remake could be released to benefit coronavirus relief efforts.

It was previously remade in 2010 following a catastrophic earthquake in Haiti. The latest version of ‘We Are The World’ will feature Richie and his fellow American Idol judges Katy Perry and Luke Bryan.
