Even though we didn’t spot our favourite celebrities out and about on the city streets this year, there’s a lot that they shared on their social media platforms even during the lockdown and kept us entertained. From big moments that shook us pre-COVID to stars finding ways to occupy themselves, here’s a roundup of all the celebrity moments from Bollywood and Hollywood that brought a smile to our faces.
1. Jennifer Lopez And Shakira’s Super Bowl Performance
We can never forget JLo and Shakira’s power-packed performance at the Super Bowl halftime.

Shakira too performed on her major hits like Waka Waka and Hips Don’t Lie.

6. Priyanka Chopra Jonas And Brack Obama’s Memoirs
PeeCee unveiled the cover of her upcoming book Unfinished. The thoughtful and intimate memoir, which will be launched in January 2021, will take the readers through Priyanka’s childhood, the challenges she faced while navigating through her career in India, Hollywood and more. “Having been a public person now for 20 years, with so much life to live and a long list of things to check off my list personally and professionally, I am very much #Unfinished. BUT the funny thing about writing a memoir is that it forces you to look at things differently, reconciling so many things you thought you had put to bed,” she had shared on her Instagram.
