Sambora Rocks LLS
Richie Sambora kicked off his week leading the Late Late Show house band on Monday by performing the show’s theme song and sharing lead vocals with Craig Ferguson. Entertainment Tonight mentioned the pair’s rendition of the tune. As part of his week on the show, Sambora is running a Twitter contest, where answering questions about the show can win you prizes. He talks more about it on his website. To be clear, this is a contest being run by Sambora and his people, not by Craig, the LLS or us. To play, you need to follow Sambora’s tweets and follow his instructions. The contest wraps up on Saturday, when Sambora will use his Facebook page to ask about the music played on the show throughout the week. The winner gets and autographed guitar signed by Richie and Craig. Richie tweeted on Monday evening:

Amazing first night with my man @CraigyFerg…tune in you’ll laugh your ass off… pic.twitter.com/42PvDlF2

House Band Endorsement
Entertainment Weekly television critic Ken Tucker, a longtime fan of the Late Late Show, tweeted Tuesday that Richie Sambora’s appearance and Craig’s enjoyment in performing the show’s theme song is proof that the show should make a house band a permanent fixture:

@CraigyFerg really committed to the theme song last night: http://bit.ly/TFFmlZ  CBS, good argument for giving him a permanent house band.

Miranda Mentioned

Miranda Kerr‘s Monday appearance on the Late Late Show where she talked about modeling underwear for her husband is getting plenty of notice from PopSugar.com, Examiner.com, Entertainmentwise.com, JustJared.com, and OKMagazine.com.
