Carpool Karaoke Teaser: James Corden On The Road With Ed Sheeran
Next week, “The Late Late Show” will go to London. To grace a going-home-from-work trip in London, mega star singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran will be carpooling with James Corden. How wonderful can this be in the music and talk show history? Over the past years, Corden has sung along with really famous celebrities in his recurring Carpool Karaoke segment on “The Late Late Show.” Past guests include Mariah Carey, Justin Bieber, Jason Derulo, Harry Styles (just a few days ago) and a whole lot more. And of course, who will ever forget Adele who totally made a breakthrough in the Carpool Karaoke industry with the most number of views? Well hands down, Adele.
Next week will be Ed’s turn to hit the road singing to the karaoke. Could this episode challenge Adele’s title of “Most Watched Carpool Karaoke?” We’ll see and try to hypothesize by taking a look at the released teaser.
“The Late Late Show with James Corden” in its world premiere teaser dubbed the man as “The biggest male artist in the world” only to reveal a redhead, inked man in plain black T-shirt Ed Sheeran. 36-year-old James Corden with Sheeran playing his acoustic guitar to the tune of his hit Divide single, “Castle on the Hill.” Next comes a rapping Ed and James singing to the music of Ed’s 2014 hit, “Sing.” Well, we believe you’ll get all the words right, free of error and slurring, James!
That’s just like the tip of the iceberg. These two definitely has so much more to watch out for. Ed and James will definitely be throwing an avalanche of jams.
