David Beckham dons a black suit as he parties with James Corden, Lebron James and Adele’s boyfriend Rich Paul at £3k-per-head Amex party in Miami
David Beckham partied with James Corden, Lebron James and Rich Paul at the £3,000-per-head American Express Presents CARBONE Beach on Saturday in Miami.
The former footballer, 47, looked dapper in a black suit as he was joined by the comedian, 43, who put on a casual display in a charcoal polo top.
He soon shared a hug with the professional basketball player, 37, whose agent and boyfriend of Adele, 40, posed for a photo alongside the beaming talk show host. It was the singer’s birthday but she was nowhere to be seen, according to Page Six.

Other guests at the exclusive event included Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump, chef Mario Carbone, DJ Hannah Bronfman and driver Pierre Gasly, who were all treated to a surprise performance from Andrea Bocelli.
It comes after The Mail on Sunday revealed James turned down a ‘name your price’ multi-year deal from television bosses to stay in the US.
The surprise announcement that he will quit America next year – despite an estimated £40 million offer to remain – has shocked Hollywood.
The actor revealed he will return to Britain seven years after arriving in Los Angeles amid great fanfare to present The Late Late Show for US broadcasting giant CBS.

He and his wife Julia live with their three children in the exclusive LA suburb of Brentwood. Their £7.5 million mansion has five bedrooms, eight bathrooms and a home cinema. The Cordens are not expected to sell their house in Los Angeles.
Julia is an interior designer to stars such as the Duchess of Sussex and the couple’s friends include chef Gordon Ramsay and his wife Tana, actress Jennifer Lawrence and singer Adele.
The family revel in the glitzy world of Hollywood so it is a major shock that Corden has decided to walk away from his £7 million-a-year role presenting the nightly programme.

One senior Hollywood executive said of James’ departure: ‘Nobody can understand why he’s made this sudden decision to walk away, particularly when he was being offered the Earth to stay.’
His contract had been set to expire this August, but he has signed an extension that will keep him on the show until next spring – the time he is expected to return to Britain.
Despite getting a further 12 months out of the star, CBS President George Cheeks spoke of his sorrow that he would be losing the presenter. He said shortly after James’ announcement: ‘We wish he could stay longer, but we are very proud he made CBS his American home.’

A source close to the presenter was quick to point out that the big-money offer wasn’t something that would have enticed him to stay.
They said: ‘He could have gone down the cash route with Gavin and Stacey, taken the cheque and written it for ever, but he chose not to. This is the same.’
In his statement, James said he doesn’t want to ‘outstay his welcome’, although his friends cite different reasons, such as the risk of getting typecast.

He also revealed his far that his parents in England will grow old without seeing much of his children – Max, 11, Carey, seven, and four-year-old Charlotte.
Filming four shows each week and recording skits such as his hugely successful Carpool Karaoke, where he sings along with celebrities such as Michelle Obama and Ed Sheeran while driving around LA in his Range Rover, is time-consuming
The skits, along with those featuring Sir Paul McCartney, Adele and Lady Gaga, have generated more than a billion YouTube views. Adele’s 2016 appearance has more than 250 million views.

Last December, The Mail on Sunday revealed there were questions over the future of the television production company Fulwell 73, which makes The Late Late Show.
Documents showed that the umbrella company which owned three other firms was due to be dissolved, which would have meant James would no longer be involved in the business.
Freuds, the public relations company hired by Fulwell, refused to answer questions on the matter.

It followed rumours that the star and his best friend of 25 years, Ben Winston, executive producer of The Late Late Show, had fallen out.
The two friends left London for Hollywood in January 2015 and are still there working together. Both parties staunchly deny a fall-out.
Indeed, Winston took to Instagram last week following James’ announcement to say that ‘there has been no greater joy than going to work each day with my best mate and the most talented guy in the world’.
