Maybe I'm amazed

It's hard to imagine any more delights for Beatles fans than the ones already granted when Paul McCartney rode shotgun through his hometown for "The Late Late Show With James Corden."

Jenny from the block

Jennifer Lopez picks up the "Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award" during MTV's 2018 "Video Music Awards," a moment she'll celebrate with a performance, her first for the ceremony since 2001. Additional artists in action include Nicki Minaj, Ariana Grande, Travis Scott and Shawn Mendes.
