Lady Gaga clarifies what happened during her uncomfortable video interview with Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show last week. The incident, which made headlines, left the musician feeling unprepared and flustered.
Gaga apologized for the technical difficulties and thanked Fallon for being kind about it. During the interview, Gaga was supposed to talk about her charitable initiative related to the coronavirus, but she seemed distracted and frazzled. She asked Fallon if she was on TV and requested to reschedule the interview.
The mystery surrounding Gaga's appearance was solved on Monday when Global Citizen and the World Health Organization announced the One World: Together at Home virtual telethon.
The event is a benefit to support frontline healthcare workers in the fight against coronavirus, featuring a roster of artists curated by Lady Gaga. The telethon has already raised more than $35 million in donations, and the lineup includes a diverse range of performers from around the world, along with surprise guests.
To promote the event, Lady Gaga appeared on all three major late-night shows on Monday, including The Tonight Show, The Late Show, and Jimmy Kimmel Live. During her interview with Fallon, Gaga expressed her concern about the limitations of the message "we're all in this together," especially for those who are facing different challenges, such as domestic violence or job loss. She emphasized the need to help those who are struggling in different ways, and her focus on figuring out how to help.
