As the world copes with the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, many people around the globe are finding various ways of occupying their time. During her self-quarantine, Wonder Woman star Gal Gadot stumbled upon a video of a man in Italy playing trumpet for his neighbors from his balcony and was overcome with emotion.
Gadot says, "He was playing 'Imagine' and there was something so powerful and pure about this video". Feeling inspired, Gadot decided to combat her cabin fever by enlisting several friends to partake in a very touching collaborative rendition of John Lennon's 1971 classic. Gadot captioned the video, "We are in this together, we will get through it together. Let's imagine together. Sing with us ⤠All love to you, from me and my dear friends".
Those lending their voices include: Kaia Gerber, Cara Delevingne, Natalie Portman, Zoe Kravitz, Sia, Will Ferrell Kristen Wiig, Jamie Dornan, Amy Adams and many, many more!
Gadot gives a warm smile after concluding the song by singing the line, "And the world will be as one."
Gadot wasn't the only celebrity helping lift spirits, U2 rocker Bono debuted his new track, "Let Your Love Be Known" which is his first new song in nearly 3 years. The frontman performed the tune on his piano via Instagram after finding inspiration in a group of Italians who developed a bond through music while in quarantine.

Today, the United States also agreed to end all "nonessential' travel across border lines.
As one who takes this very seriously, Justin took to Instagram to tell his fans, "Obviously this is a really scary time. I wanted to remind everyone what we can do when we come together!! LETS COME TOGETHER BY ISOLATING OURSELVES UNTIL WE HAVE MORE ANSWERS! Our grandparents are counting on us."

Welp... it's the end of an era and potentially the end of the New England Patriots dynasty as Tom Brady officially announces he will not be back with the club for the 2020-2021 season. Brady confirmed his departure via Instagram and is reportedly leaving on his own terms after choosing not to resign with the team after 20 seasons with the organization.
The #Bucs made a strong offer to QB Tom Brady believed to be $30M or more. The #Chargers did, as well. And now, he’s leaving New England.
Brady, who will be 43 years old when the season starts, is set to become a free agent tomorrow at 4PM. He will then be free to sign with any team of his choosing, though it appears only a few teams are in the market for an aging QB. Potential suitors include the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Los Angeles Chargers... although a third team could be lurking in the darkness waiting to snag the living legend. Many anticipate Brady landing with the Chargers as he recently launched his own Hollywood production company, 199 Productions, a reference to being taken with the 199th pick in the 200 draft.
