‘The Late Late Show’ (Video) – The Hollywood Reporter

Forget carpool karaoke — James Corden is taking music to the streets in a whole new way.

In a bit that aired on Tuesday night, The Late Late Show host and his theater company performed musical numbers from Grease — at the intersection of Beverly Blvd. and Genesee Ave.

The crosswalk-set numbers included “Summer Nights,” “Greased Lightnin’ ” and “We Go Together,” each of which were met with more honks than applause.

However, it turns out the best vocal warm-up is repeating the name “Benedict Cumberbatch.”
