SINGAPORE – The global music event One World: Together At Home raised funds and warmed hearts – and also revealed some interesting facts about the music stars who performed.
1. The Rolling Stones drummer Charlie Watts does not seem to have a drum set in his home
Charlie Watts might have spent the last five decades playing drums in one of the biggest rock bands in history, but he did not have a drum kit on hand for this historic broadcast.

For the record, Legend has won 10 Grammy Awards, an Oscar, an Emmy and a Tony, while Smith has won four Grammys, an Oscar and a Golden Globe award.
