The Disney Family Singalong was originally arranged to raise funds for Feeding America, an organization that has been using its resources to provide aid to those affected by the ongoing public health crisis.
During the first special, which aired last month and was hosted by Ryan Seacrest, Beyoncé made a surprise appearance when she sang “When You Wish Upon a Star” from the 1990 animated classic Pinocchio. She also sent a message of hope and solidarity to fans and those on the frontlines of the current global situation.
“Hello to all of the families across the world; I’m very proud and honored to be a part of the Disney family,” Beyoncé said. “I’d like to dedicate this song to all of the health care workers who have been working tirelessly to keep us healthy and safe. We greatly appreciate you.”
Also during the singalong, stars from the hit Disney Channel Original Movie High School Musical reunited for a performance of “We’re All In This Together,” an iconic track from the 2006 film. Zac Efron shared a message to fans before the performance kicked off.
“Hi everyone, I hope that you’re safe and that you’re healthy and you’re doing as well as possible during these unprecedented times,” Efron said. “It’s my greatest pleasure to introduce a musical performance by some of my oldest friends, and some new ones.”
Unfortunately, Efron couldn’t take part in the singing due to a weak Wi-Fi signal, but fans saw original stars Vanessa Hudgens, Ashley Tisdale, Corbin Bleu, Monique Coleman and Lucas Grabeel.
The Disney Family Singalong: Volume II airs on Sunday, May 10 at 7 p.m. ET on ABC.
