James Corden has pulled off what is arguably his most stunning Carpool Karaoke session yet.
Ahead of this weekend’s Tony Awards, celebrating the best of US theatre, he chat show host departed from his usual LA, and visited Broadway, where he collected a group of talents in her car.
First to hop in was ‘Hamilton’ star Lin-Manuel Miranda, who is nominated for four Tony Awards this year.
He was followed by ’30 Rock’ and ‘Kimmy Schmidt’ actress Jane Krakowski, Audra McDonald and ‘Modern Family’ star Jesse Tyler Ferguson.
The four stage veterans were happy to join in a singalong, that must surely rate as one of his most quality offerings yet. They started with ‘Can’t Take My Eyes Off You’, before segueing into ‘Seasons of Love’ and finally a rousing anthem of ‘One Day More’ from Les Miserables.
Yesterday, it was revealed that Corden’s Carpool segment, one of the most successful parts of his chat show, nearly didn’t happen after his very first guest, Mariah Carey, initially refused to sing, telling him, “We’ll just drive round and have a chat.”
