During the special, awareness for the “Feeding America” organization was raised, with hopes of encouraging viewers to contribute as many families across the country face hunger due to the spread of COVID-19.
As many of you know, Beyoncé is a part of the Disney family, and she starred as the voice of Nala in the 2019 box office hit “Lion King,” which was the live-action remake of the Disney classic, which was originally released back 1994.
