On a recent episode of “The Late Late Show with James Corden,” the staff of the talk show showcased their artistic talent by participating in a competition. Host James Corden, known for his witty banter and energetic personality, commended the staff for their exceptional recreations of famous photographs by renowned photographer David LaChapelle.
The competition was a hit amongst the staff, with everyone bringing their A-game to the table. Corden expressed his amazement at the quality of the artwork, noting that it was the best staff challenge the show had ever had. LaChapelle himself was so impressed that he couldn’t pick a winner. Consequently, Corden decided to hang all the paintings in CBS Television City as a testament to the staff’s talent.
As Corden gave viewers a tour of the building, he showcased the various paintings displayed throughout the hallways. From portraits of celebrities such as Carter, Katy Perry, and Leonardo DiCaprio, to stunning art pieces that captured the essence of LaChapelle’s work, the entire building was transformed into a captivating gallery. Corden humorously asked his colleague Nick, who was accompanying him on the tour, how long he thought the paintings would stay up. The host’s hope was forever, but Nick speculated they might withstand the test of time for at least 15 years.
Corden bravely defended his decision to hang the artwork without seeking prior approval, jokingly mentioning that they would apologize afterward. His intention was to brighten up what he jokingly referred to as a “drab corridor” and leave a lasting legacy for the show.
After the art tour, Corden transitioned to delivering the day’s news in his usual entertaining manner. The topics ranged from the Food and Drug Administration’s expected authorization of a new booster specific to the Omicron variant, to Elon Musk’s ambitious plan to roll out completely self-driving cars without the need for a passenger by the end of the year.
As the show continued, Corden playfully engaged in a discussion about the proper way to make a cup of tea with an English accent. The banter between Corden and his American guest, Ian, showcased their good-natured humor and friendly rivalry, highlighting cultural differences in a lighthearted manner.
The episode concluded with Corden jokingly dismissing the idea of a self-driving car by the end of the year, expressing disbelief in Musk’s claims. The host lightened the mood by mentioning the World Gravy Wrestling Championships, which had made a triumphant return after a two-year hiatus in England. Corden humorously quipped that while drinking tea may extend one’s lifespan, participating in gravy wrestling deducts a solid decade.
This episode of “The Late Late Show with James Corden” was filled with laughter, entertainment, and engaging conversations. Keeping true to his reputation as an entertaining and charismatic host, Corden delivered an hour of unforgettable television that left viewers eagerly awaiting the next episode.
