Billie Eilish, Katy Perry and Selena Gomez are among the celebrities who’ve signed on to UNICEF’s effort to vaccinate the world.
They’ve all signed an open letter to the so-called G-7 countries — the world’s most powerful nations — asking that they donate cash and supplies to roll out COVID vaccinations in places that have little to no access.The letter, which will be delivered at the G-7 Summit in Britain this weekend, says “The pandemic will not be over anywhere until it is over everywhere, and that means getting vaccines to every country, as quickly and equitably as possible. The hopes of the world rest on your shoulders,Let’s build a healthier, brighter and fairer future for every child and for everyone.”
Organizers say that nations like the U.S., which have high vaccination rates, could donate 20 percent of their current supply of doses by the end of summer with no issues.

Harry Connick Jr. is heading back to the road in a trek he’s dubbed the Time to Play! tour.
Kicking off August 5 in Indianapolis, the tour finds the singer, songwriter and actor performing songs from his entire musical catalog with his seven-piece band.
Right now, the tour is scheduled to wrap up August 29 in Franklin, TN. Ticket information is available at HarryConnickJr.com/tour.
Last year during the pandemic lockdown, Harry hosted the CBS special United We Sing: A Grammy Tribute to Unsung Heroes, which featured the singer and his daughter, Georgia, taking a road trip in an RV from Connecticut to New Orleans and highlighting essential workers who were risking their lives every day.
This past March, Harry released Alone with My Faith, an album featuring traditional gospel songs and new tracks inspired by faith, devotion and spirituality.
