This video clip of John Legend singing “All of Me” at a pair of bulldogs may have been released on April Fools’ Day, but it’s no joke.

With a small charity donation, you can enter for a chance to have Legend sing at your private event. That includes, but is not limited to, dog weddings. The Academy Award-winning songwriter taped himself crooning to his own dogs in a hilarious clip to promote his charity raffle for the Show Me campaign, an education effort spearheaded by Legend to combat poverty and, specifically, help rebuild the former South High School into a community center. Raffle entrants have the chance to win a private concert from Legend at any personal event of their choosing.

The kicker? When supermodel and wife Chrissy Teigen catches Legend in the act, her shock fades pretty quickly. She just wants to put on a cute dress and join in the fun.

The campaign kicked off in February, and donations are open until April 15. Those with especially deep pockets can guarantee a meeting with the Grammy winner by shelling out $25,000 up front. Otherwise, raffle entries are only $10 for 100 entries.
