Paying tribute in the form of a living room concert

The announcement of this show comes after The Late Late Show host James Corden set up something special for his viewers at home, too. Many talk show hosts have been continuing their shows from home during this time, like Jimmy Fallon. The concert will be an hour long without commercials. The performers will be relying on viewers’ support for Feeding America and First Responders Children’s Foundation.
