In a recent episode of “The Late Late Show with James Corden,” the host welcomed a star-studded lineup of guests that left the audience on the edge of their seats. James kicked off the show by introducing the “fantastic” and “outrageous” Norwegian talent, Renate Reinsve. The Oscar-nominated actress from the movie “The Worst Person in the World” certainly knows how to make a lasting impression.
But that wasn’t all. James then brought out the entire cast of the renowned Cirque du Soleil show, OVO. The circus performers brought an extra dose of excitement and energy to the show. Despite James not understanding a word they were saying, his trusty sidekick Reggie was able to translate their excitement at being on the show. It was clear that having the cast of OVO on the show was a major coup for “The Late Late Show.”
During the conversation, James and Reggie pondered if they could ever be a part of the Cirque du Soleil show themselves. Reggie, confident in his abilities, claimed he could handle the “life of the circus stuff,” while James envisioned himself and Reggie performing some of the more comedic acts. Their banter highlighted their charm and willingness to take risks for the sake of entertainment.
As the segment came to a close, James transitioned to discuss the confirmation hearings for Supreme Court nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson. The hearings took an unexpected turn as Republicans attempted to portray Jackson as “soft on crime.” James injected his trademark humor into the topic, jokingly questioning the level of softness being discussed.
In another lighthearted moment, James shared the surprising results of a new survey that revealed people judge pet owners based on the names they give their furry friends. Unsurprisingly, if your pet happens to be a snake, judgment is almost guaranteed. James playfully teased Reggie about his two cats, Eddie and Beetle Juice, and the odd names they have.
To end the show on a cheerful note, James shared an interesting tidbit about Guinness beer. The iconic Irish stout now has a unique offering for fans—a three-foot-tall headstone made of polished black granite and beige marble, perfectly symbolizing the love for this beloved dark beer.
The episode was a whirlwind of excitement, humor, and surprising revelations. James Corden once again showcased his ability to entertain and engage both his guests and the audience. With the Cirque du Soleil cast and the witty banter between James and Reggie, it was truly an unforgettable night on “The Late Late Show.”
Overall, “The Late Late Show with James Corden” continues to deliver compelling and entertaining episodes that keep viewers coming back for more. Whether it’s hosting Norwegian superstars or discussing unusual survey results, James knows how to make late-night television feel fresh and exciting. This episode served as a perfect example of his ability to entertain and captivate audiences around the world.
