Why has it
taken me until now to discover James Corden! Between his charming English
accent and his genuine comedic attitude, I’ve become obsessed for days now with watching and
sharing his videos on YouTube, to the point where my friends are starting to ask
questions.
My favourite segment is Carpool Karaoke.
My understanding is that Mr. Corden came up with this idea to create interest in
the show by playing to his strengths i.e. singing and performing. He has
admitted publicly that he is not a stand-up comedian and wants the show to be
something different from the normal format for late night shows. Well I say
he is on to something great.
The only late
night show I ever watch is Jimmy Fallon who I have a school girl crush on and
think he is a wicked talented comedian, but that’s for another post. Now I
watch two and it all started when I stumbled across his carpool karaoke with
Justin Bieber.
I was surprised
at first that Bieber was even on the show, he must have an album coming out. My
intrigue forced me to click play on YouTube. Full stop, Corden and Bieber nailed
it. I can’t stop watching it and I even think Bieber comes across as likable in some parts, I know shocking.
I’ve gone on to watch all the carpool karaokes from Jennifer Hudson singing James’ drive-thru order to Rob Stewart casually snapping his fingers to his new jam. I think the secret to James success is his ability to bring out the best in his guests by creating a comfortable atmosphere where they feel they can take off their "Hollywood masks" and just have fun, even if it’s only for a few minutes in a black Land Rover. I’m wishing for the day that I see carpool karaoke with Jon Bon Jovi. Could you imagine Jon and James belting out Livin on a Prayer, it would be fantastic.
