Returning once again after his inaugural hosting gig last year, James Corden will hold court over the evening's proceedings. Musical performers for the event include Cardi B, Daddy Yankee, Luis Fonsi, Elton John, Lady Gaga, Kendrick Lamar, Patti LuPone, Bruno Mars, Maren Morris, Pink, Rihanna, Chris Stapleton, SZA, and U2, among others.
