Watch A Load Of A-Listers Covering ‘Imagine’ For UNICEF

It's like one big game of Spot The A-Lister as Katy Perry, Nicole Scherzinger, Adam Lambert and even Courteney Cox lend their voices to a cover of John Lennon's 'Imagine' for a new campaign from UNICEF.

Cody Simpson, will.i.am, Danny O'Donoghue and Idris Elba are also involved, with stars taking turns to sing individual lines; either as a solo, in pairs or in larger groups. With a new Peace Collective sing-song due in December and Band Aid 30 poised to go to No1 this weekend, 'tis clearly the season for charity super-collabs.

This particular initiative, which also features Rumer Willis and Priyanka Chopra, is essentially aiming to become the biggest sing-a-long in history, with members of the public invited to submit their own contributions by way of the free TouchCast app and become part of the finished product themselves.

Once an avalanche of contributions have been received, responsibility will then fall on David Guetta to create a new master remix; set for release on New Year's Eve 2014 to cement the 25th anniversary of the Convention on the Rights of the Child. The DJ has vowed to include EVERYONE who sends in a line... even if that includes millions and millions of entries.

He said in a statement: "I'm really excited to be working with UNICEF on this incredible new project. Our ‘;world' version of Imagine will be like no other – I am proud to be a part of this collaboration. We have to get the word out that every voice counts and every child counts too.”

Craig David, David Arquette, Taye Diggs, Dianna Agron, Suki Waterhouse and even UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon are in the ‘;master' version, which has received Yoko Ono's full support. Footage from her original video with Lennon himself is intertwined with the stars' vocals.
