Bono to Present Paul McCartney With Ultimate Legend Award

Paul McCartney will be presented with the Ultimate Legend Award at tonight's MTV Awards by U2 frontman Bono.

The Elevation hitmaker is reportedly being flown into Liverpool, McCartney's hometown - where the prestigious awards show is being hosted from.

A source tells Britain's Daily Mirror newspaper,  "Channel chiefs have been in a massive quandary as to who to present the award to Liverpool's most famous son.

"It is a first ever for MTV Europe to create a gong like this. It's a one-off.

"One thing's for sure, Macca will certainly be bringing his guitar. It will be a flying visit but he's not likely to come all the way to Liverpool without strumming us a song.

"Bono and him get on like a house on fire, and their presence will be the talk of the night."
