James Corden and his wife Julia Carey happily strike a pose on the red carpet while attending the National Portrait Gallery’s 2019 November Gala held at the Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery on Sunday (November 17) in Washington, DC.
The 41-year-old Late Late Show host was joined at the event by Lin-Manuel Miranda and his wife Vanessa Nadal, Kathy Bates, Gayle King, Mia Moretti, designer Prabal Gurung, Clive Davis, photographer Annie Leibovitz, Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour, and Jeff Bezos with his son, Preston Bezos.
Anna Wintour was honored with the Portrait of a Nation prize Sunday at the National Portrait Gallery. Lin-Manuel Miranda, Earth, Wind & Fire, Jeff Bezos, Indra Nooyi and Frances Arnold were also recipients honored at the 2019 American Portrait Gala.
“I am beyond proud that the single most influential person in American fashion is an immigrant from the United Kingdom,” James expressed during his speech for Anna (via USA Today). “The most iconic, female immigrant since the Statue of Liberty herself.”
