Hello,
First I'm noob on these things and just really want to get how I can recreate this effect on my own. Effect is on screen throught all song. Is it only plugin layer on top of live recording?

Looking forward to answers.

Those are actually live lighting effects. You can simulate lighting effects in after affects using colored overlays and color correction. The right combination depends entirely on your footage. The complexity of the composition also depends entirely upon the shot.
For example, these underwater lighting effects require a whole bunch of work because there is more going on then just changing the color of the light. There is interaction with the geometry in a scene and the moving camera.
I hope this gives you some ideas. Concentrate on the underwater lighting part rather than the fluid dynamics in the trapcode Effects.

The video on the background screens looks like it's processed live in a hardware-driven live motion graphics platform like Notch.
It's likely the musician here could be performing to a backing track, which would enable the screen content to be pre-produced in a tool like After Effects, but given the budget of a show like Ellen, and the integration of the singer's performance into the screen content, it is almost certainly processed live.
The content itself appears to be designed with particle generation and fluid dynamics/distortions that are driven by high contrast versions of the live camera vision being fed into the effect generator. The process of designing this look would be very similar to the concepts discussed in the video that Rick has posted above, albeit in a slightly different platform.
