According to Kevin 'Pop Prince' Hughes other confirmed per­formers so far include Paloma Faith, Jessie Ware, Sam Smith, Bastille, Elbow, Chris Martin (obviously), Bono (OBVIOUSLY) and Fuse ODG.

But what about Rita Ora we hear you cry?

Bob Geldof says @RitaOra desperate to take part but up to The Voice to release her from one day filming! #BandAid30

The whole thing's appar­ently being recorded this weekend and will be produced by Paul Epworth, while the US artists who'll be taking part will be herded together by Quincy Jones.

Proceeds from sales of the single will go towards the fight against Ebola in West Africa.
